Somewhere between motherhood, responsibilities and holding everything together, it's easy to lose sight of yourself.
Welcome to Sprinkle of Care — a little corner of encouragement, honest stories, and reminders that you matter, too.
So...
This is MY STORY...
(Behind Sprinkle of Care.)
Sprinkle of Care is about...
Rediscovering the woman beyond motherhood. Sprinkle of Carer is about creating space for yourself while navigating the beautiful, messy, and sometimes overwhelming seasons of life.
Through personal reflections, lessons learned and thoughtful resources, I hope to encourage single oms to reconnect with who they are, embrace their worth, and find joy beyond their responsibilities.
Because investing in yourself isn't selfish. It's necessary.
SOUND FAMILIAR?
You love your children endlessly, but sometimes you miss the woman you used to be.
Between raising a family, managing responsibilities, and trying to hold everything together, there's barely enough time to catch your breath, let alone figure out what you need.
I know that feeling because I've lived it.
And somewhere along my own journey, I began realizing that taking care of myself didn't have to mean taking anything away from the people I love.
I'm Teresairis Gonzalez...
I'm a mom, a woman who's had to rebuild parts of her life, and someone who is still learning what it means to live with intention.
I created Sprinkle of Care to share the honest stories, lessons, and little discoveries that have shaped my journey through motherhood, change, and rediscovering myself.
I'm not here as someone who has all the answers. I'm simply sharing what I've learned along the way, hoping that something in my story encourages you to invest a little more in yours.
I love learning from others and creating impact through intention. I have various degrees in Psychology, Biology, Higher Education Administration and Business Administration. I’ve mentored women across a wide range of personal challenges and goals. In a professional setting, I’ve taught college classrooms and led multiple teams through growth and change management. I also love to cherish the simple moments with my daughters and family, spending time reconnecting with myself at a spiritual level and finding value in solitude.
Growing up as a first generation latina, I’ve had to endure generational expectations of who and what I should be as a woman – both at work and home. Ever since I can remember, I took school seriously, dated to settle, lived in survival mode, and made personal decisions in the shadows of always seeking approval and acceptance.
Fearing the opinions and disappointment of others, I physically alienated myself, married in secret, and coped through life being a pivotal emotional support system to others without letting anyone be part of mine.
Approaching my second daughter’s birth, I realized that the quality of my life was non-existent. I felt hollow and disappointed. I defined my worth through others and could not answer who I am, what I truly want for myself without prioritizing someone else in the picture. Up to that point, I let fear and acceptance of others dictate my life. On the inside, I lived always worrying, never truly enjoying life. On the outside, I looked like I had it together. This behavior I learned through my upbringing, but I knew I needed to make a change, as this is not a way of life that I wanted to teach my daughters.
I went through a separation in my marriage right after having a c-section to a newborn, packed up my home into a rental storage and moved across the state, not knowing how everything will fall into place as a single mom. Simply leaning on faith. While this doesn’t define me or this blog, it has had a huge impact on the lessons learned along the way.
