Summary

“Hi! I'm a devout listener of your podcast, and really appreciate everything you do to make that possible! I've gained a lot of emotional intelligence and lost a lot of guilt over small things! I'm a 24-year working mama in school with 2 little ones, and on Thursday I'm getting a breast augmentation and lift!!! I'm extremely excited but have not told anyone I work with or really anyone except my 3 closest people. I decided to go through with this and not let fear of other's judgment affect my decisions! However, I'm still nervous people (especially my in-laws) are going to think I'm "loaded" even though I have always been excellent at budgeting and finances, and work for everything I have. I'm really hoping you can give me some advice on 2 things. Is it a good idea or is it even possible to keep this private? 2. How do I deal with people's responses if they do find out? I've already come up with a few "mantras" for myself: "You are not a bad mother for getting this done", "You are not robbing money that could have been better spent on your children", "My husband supports this decision, and I am not wasting our money". But I just do not want to deal with the consequences of everyone knowing and having negative reactions. Thanks again for producing amazing content, that literally changes peoples’ lives!” I had sooooo much to say about this (of course!) Listen in to hear my reply.

I'm your host, Sarah Dean, and I'm here to give you and other passionate, dedicated moms the tools you need to bridge the gap between motherhood and living the life of your dreams. I'm also here to help you be a little more shameless every day, because if you aren't building a life you're extraordinarily proud of. What kind of legacy are you building?

1:20.7	Hello, shameless moms. I'm so happy to be here today. And this is going to be fun because it's not

1:31.0	fantastic questions.
1:32.0	And as soon as I got this email, I replied within just a few minutes.
1:34.7	And I said, oh my gosh, can I please use your email for a topic on the show?
1:38.8	Because I think this is going to be a valuable conversation for so many moms.
