Six Inspiring Aussie Mums Share Their Totally Relatable Journeys Through Motherhood on TikTok
Six Inspiring Aussie Mums Share Their Totally Relatable Journeys Through Motherhood on TikTok
As we prepare to celebrate another Mother’s Day here in Australia, it is easy to focus solely on our own motherhood experiences. We might feel like we are unique in our worries, frustrations, love, and those precious moments of pure joy. Sometimes, as our children grow, we find ourselves just a little more cut off from the support base of other mums that we would see every day at preschool or playgroup when our children were smaller.
So we turn to social media to plug back in, to ground ourselves, and to realise yet again that our unique journey through motherhood isn’t that unique at all. We find relatable content from mums all over the world on many different media channels, but during the pandemic, none are more relatable than local stories featuring Aussie mums.
Here are six inspiring Australian mums to follow on TikTok as they share the stories of their own journeys through motherhood.
