Every May, the same messages flood our inboxes, timelines, and store shelves:
Buy flowers. Book brunch.
Don’t forget Mom.
And while the intention may be sweet, something deeper tugs at me.
Not all of us experience Mother’s Day the same way.
Some of us feel seen. Others feel sadness. And some, like me, wonder if we even need the day at all.

Let me say this straight: Mother's Day is complicated.
It feels more like a performance than a heartfelt tribute.
Behind all the smiling ads is a powerful marketing machine telling us how to feel, what to buy, and who to be.

Let’s pause for a moment and ask:
What are we really celebrating?

Expectations, not connection
Pressure, not presence
Labels, not love
Motherhood can’t be packed into one Sunday.
It’s messy, beautiful, painful, and real. Some are deeply loved.
Others are deeply wounded. Some celebrate. Others grieve.

Now, I know people mean well when they say, “It’s just one day to celebrate moms.”
And there’s nothing wrong with celebrating.

But when celebration turns into obligation... guilt creeps in.
You feel like you have to do something.
You feel like you’ve failed if no one does anything for you.
You feel like you’re not good enough—just for being where you are in your journey.

And that’s not love. That’s pressure dressed up in a bow.

What if we allowed people to express love in their own time, in their own way?
What if we stopped performing for the calendar?

Because real connection lives in the ordinary.
In the whispers. In the daily choosing. In the forgiveness, the mess, and the moments nobody sees.

To me, motherhood is sacred.
But it doesn’t need a special day to prove its worth.
It lives and breathes in every season.

So, no—I don’t think we need Mother’s Day.

We need:
honesty
space
truth
everyday reverence
For the women who birthed us.
For the ones who raised us.
For the ones we’ve become.
And for the ones who mother in unseen ways.

If this day feels heavy to you, I see you.
You’re not alone.
And you don’t have to smile through it.

I’d love to hold space for your truth, too.
