Between juggling work, managing the kids’ schedules, and trying to maintain some semblance of a personal life, we moms rarely get a moment to just think. I mean really think—about ourselves, our goals, what we actually want beyond the endless to-do lists.
A few months ago, I found myself in one of those funks. Everything was technically fine, but I felt stuck. Uninspired. Like I was running on autopilot while life happened around me.
An Unexpected Suggestion
My sister-in-law, who’s always been into spiritual stuff, suggested I try a tarot reading. My first reaction? Skepticism. But she explained it wasn’t about predicting the future—it was more like guided reflection. A way to step back and look at your situation from a different angle.
The best part? I didn’t have to leave my house. I found a service offering spiritual tarot consultations by phone and scheduled a session for after the kids went to bed. No babysitter needed, no driving anywhere—just me, a cup of tea, and a phone call.
What I Actually Learned
The reader didn’t tell me I’d win the lottery or meet a stranger who’d change my life. Instead, she asked questions that made me confront things I’d been avoiding. Why was I so resistant to asking for help? What was really behind my hesitation about that career opportunity?
It felt like talking to a wise friend who had no agenda except helping me see things clearly. By the end of our conversation, I had actual clarity about decisions I’d been putting off for months.
Worth Considering
I’m not saying everyone needs to call a tarot reader. But if you’re feeling stuck and traditional approaches aren’t working, sometimes an unconventional method can shake things loose. The phone format made it accessible—no scheduling hassles, no awkward waiting rooms.
Sometimes we busy moms need permission to focus on our inner world for thirty minutes. However you find that space, make sure you’re taking it.
