Motherhood carries an unexpected, yet evolutionary path of self-development and self-discovery. The weight of social media, societal expectations, and an ever-evolving concept of what it means to be a good parent plays heavily on the minds of mothers.
Flourish for Mums: 21 ways to thrive with self-care and acceptance is a much-needed circuit breaker. It shares 21 personal, yet universal messages of deep wisdom to release the ‘mother guilt’ and anxiety around raising children, and ultimately enjoy a new kind of self-nurture. This is the perfect companion for mothers – gifting a warm embrace, and space, to rekindle a refreshing love for themselves.
Sonia Bestulic offers professional expertise, heartfelt connection and understanding, as she tenderly emphasises the need for mums to discover that ‘loving right’ is ‘living right’. Filled with uplifting anecdotes and supportive strategies, while busting big misconceptions, Flourish for Mums: 21 ways to thrive with self-care and acceptance cultivates a self-empowerment specific to mothers with its unique, strong, yet gentle messages. Handbag friendly and always ready to provide a dose of inspiration, it welcomes mothers to flourish. Now.

Flourish for Mums contains a treasure-trove of love and support – and let’s face it – we often tend to place unrealistic expectations on ourselves, and what we really need is the reassurance that we’re doing the best we can – and that’s more than good enough. Sonia Bestulic has truly captured what it means to ‘flourish’, with her heartfelt, wise and practical strategies and inspiring quotes that speak to the soul of our humanness. Her gentle, uplifting words teach us to nurture ourselves, thrive and grow with self-reflection, belief, care and acceptance. This guide empowers us to embrace our inner joy and perfectly imperfect selves so that we can bloom like the most radiant flower in the bunch. Highly relatable and highly recommended.

There is so much “real” in this book. So much that resonates. It is promoted as a book for new mums but I think this book has a much bigger audience; it’s a book we can all find something to take with us on our life’s journey. A book for life.

I really like the fact of letting go of those myths of what motherhood is ‘supposed to’ be .’ And self-care is really important, because there’s no job that’s more demanding, in its way, than motherhood.
