How I Balance Content Creation, Family, and Chaos

Because real life doesn’t pause for content.


This is the real me. Messy, multitasking, and still showing up. You’ll always find the unfiltered side of me on my social media stories — that’s where the connection truly happens.
This is the real me. Messy, multitasking, and still showing up. You’ll always find the unfiltered side of me on my social media stories — that’s where the connection truly happens.

Let’s be real — there’s no perfect system. No clean planner. No quiet home office with matcha on the desk. Those perfect for the gram settings, just me, my phone, a toddler pulling my sleeve, dinner half-burnt, and a caption waiting to be written or re-edited because I just got a better idea.


Here’s what balancing content, family, and chaos actually looks like.

1. I Don’t Balance — I Prioritize by Mood

Some days, I’m a content queen. Other days, I’m on the floor playing blocks and forgetting I even own a ring light.

Instead of forcing a balance, I flow with the day. If my family needs me more, I pause the content. If I feel creatively lit up, I batch while everyone’s asleep.

Balance? No. Rhythm? Yes.


2. I Batch on the Good Days

When I have energy, light, and Jaume is with dad or napping, I go hard. I record, write, and store up.

This way, on the days when life gets loud or I’m just not in the mood, I still have content ready. Prepping ahead lets me be present without feeling like I'm disappearing.


3. I Let People Into the Chaos

I used to think content had to look perfect. Now? I show the mess. The clingy baby, the messy hair, the unesthetic looking Edith, why do I feel like I caught you smiling? the laundry in the corner that's waiting for heaven's call to be folded.

That’s the story. That’s the content. That’s me.

People don’t just follow aesthetics. They follow authenticity.

You’ll always see the messy me on my social media stories. That’s where we show our unfiltered side. It’s where the real connection happens.


4. I Ask for Help — And Take Breaks

My husband helps—a lot. And when I feel burnt out, I pause.

There’s no trophy for being the most exhausted creator. I’ve learned that pausing doesn’t kill growth. It protects my peace.


5. I Remind Myself Why I’m Doing This

Not for likes. Not for trends.

I create to connect. To inspire. To show women like me that they’re not alone trying to do it all while holding a baby and a vision at the same time.

When I remember my why, I find my how.


Final Thoughts: It’s Not Balanced. It’s Beautiful.

It’s messy. It’s loud. It’s unpredictable. But it’s mine.

I’m not here to pretend I have it all together. I’m just here to keep showing up — in between cuddles, edits, and late-night breakdowns.

And somehow, that’s working just fine.
