Superwoman

Is your expectation of yourself to be a Superwoman?

When you look up ‘Superwoman’ online it says;

‘A exceptional woman with strong physical or mental ability, especially one who successfully manages a home, brings up children and has a full time job’

SAY WHAT???

Lets break that down. Notice I said your expectation of yourself. That’s what it is, an expectation we put on ourselves. When you read the definition, I know that none of you would expect that from your mum, sister or best friend.

Strong physical ability, does that mean we also need to fit in a gym workout? Or strong mental ability, act like a robot and not feel emotions?

To be an exceptional woman, this is what we have to strive for? I think not.

Where does it mention relationships, joy, passions, love, connection to self?

You are exceptional just the way you are, however your Superwoman looks.
