Rachel Lovely emphasizes the importance of being a good villager to create a strong mom village. Sharing insights from her experience and her mother's wisdom, she highlights that kindness, willingness to ask for help, and proactive engagement are necessary to build meaningful connections. Many are struggling to forge these connections post-pandemic, as social media interactions do not translate into real-world relationships. Lovely's TikTok perspective has resonated with many, urging a shift from self-reliance to community reliance for better shared experiences and support among mothers.
Everyone wants to have a village, but no one wants to be a villager. My mom builds a bustling metropolis; you have to engage to be part of a village.
Social media doesn't always translate into real-life connections. If you need a favor, you might not want to bother those followers.
Shifting my thinking from, 'I can do it myself' to 'I don't have to do it myself' changed my life.
Being asked to do things makes you feel valued! Start by living close enough to friends for support.
