From Lost to Limitless: How I Turned Postpartum Depression into Purpose & How You Can Too.

There was a time when I didn’t recognize the woman staring back at me in the mirror. After experiencing postpartum depression in 2019, being laid off from one of the best Airline companies in the world in 2020, navigating the challenges of raising kids as an immigrant mom, and losing my sense of self in the process, I knew something had to change. My journey from overwhelm to empowerment led me to create The Confident Mum—a brand and a movement dedicated to helping Black women reclaim their confidence, prioritize self-care, and walk boldly in their purpose.

Now, through the Confident Mums Retreat, I’m offering the same transformation to other high-achieving Black women who are ready to stop surviving and start thriving.

The Breaking Point That Led to My Purpose

Like many women, I had always been the strong one. The one who handled everything, who showed up for everyone—except myself. A rough start to motherhood, and societal expectations made me feel like I had to sacrifice my own well-being to be a “good” mother, wife, and woman.

Then came postpartum depression. It wasn’t just sadness—it was a deep sense of loss, exhaustion, and disconnection from myself after a traumatic C-section birth. The confident, ambitious woman I used to be felt like a distant memory. I knew I wasn’t alone in this, but at the time, I felt isolated.

The wake-up call came when I realized: If I didn’t start prioritizing myself, asking and accepting help, no one would do it for me.

That realization changed everything. I started small—carving out moments for myself mostly through skincare and eating healthy, redefining what confidence and self-care looked like, and surrounding myself with women who understood my journey. And through that, The Confident Mum was born.

The Power of Walking in Your Purpose

Purpose isn’t always clear in the beginning. Sometimes, it reveals itself in the struggles we overcome. I turned my pain into power by:

✔ Prioritizing my mental and emotional well-being
✔ Sharing my story and journey online which led to a strong Community
✔ Creating spaces where Black women feel seen, heard, and supported
✔ Using my voice and platforms to help others reclaim their confidence

Through this journey, I realized that confidence is the foundation of success, joy, and fulfillment. It’s what allows us to ask for more, to create the lives we desire, and to show up unapologetically.

How You Can Step Into Your Next Level of Confidence

Whether you’re a mom, an entrepreneur, or a woman navigating the pressures of life, you deserve to feel confident, fulfilled, and aligned with your purpose. Here’s how you can start:

1. Give Yourself Permission to Take Up Space

So many Black women shrink themselves to fit expectations. It’s time to stop apologizing for wanting more—more joy, more peace, more abundance. Say this aloud: I deserve a life that feels good to me.

2. Reclaim Your Identity Beyond the Roles You Play

You are more than a mother, a professional, or a wife. Who are you outside of what you do for others? Start nurturing that version of yourself.

3. Prioritize Self-Care as a Non-Negotiable

Self-care is not a luxury—it’s a necessity. Whether it’s a solo retreat, daily journaling, or simply saying no without guilt, commit to putting yourself first.

4. Surround Yourself with Women Who Elevate You

The right community will remind you of your worth when you forget. Find spaces where you can be vulnerable, be supported, and be inspired—like the Confident Mums Retreat.

5. Take Bold Action Toward Your Dreams

Confidence comes from doing. Whether it’s launching a business, speaking up in a meeting, or finally booking that solo trip, make a commitment to move in the direction of your desires.
