Motherhood isn’t always picture-perfect or a chaotic mess—most of us live somewhere in between. You’re trying to get avocado out of your hair while praying for a second cup of coffee before noon. Welcome to the realness of motherhood—and welcome to Eklektik Mama, where we’re not just here to survive this wild ride, but to thrive. Together.
Forget the Filters – This is Motherhood
From the highlight reel moments, when our homes are immaculate and smudge-free on Instagram, to the days when we’re barely holding it together amidst endless snack requests, balancing our laptops and our children’s expectations – we are all mamas. Every experience, whether picture-perfect or utterly chaotic, is real.
Motherhood is messy, but it’s also magical, and that magic isn’t in perfect poses or curated captions. It’s in the unfiltered moments: the belly laughs with your kids, the shared stories with other mamas who get it and the relief of knowing you’re not alone in the chaos. That’s what Eklektik Mama is all about; creating a space for mamas to connect, laugh a little harder and bond over the shared truths we’re all living, but maybe worried about sharing.
Connection is Key – And We’re Here to Help You Find It
In today’s fast-paced world, connection can feel more distant than ever, especially for mothers balancing diaper changes, school runs and family demands. Let’s be honest: sometimes, the idea of making new friends seems more exhausting than chasing a toddler in a crowded mall. But deep down, we crave those genuine connections. We need that circle of friends who understand that your idea of “me time” is hiding in the bathroom for five minutes of peace.
At Eklektik Mama, we get it. And we’re here to make it easier for you to find your people. Wherever you are on the mamahood journey – whether you’re a new mama feeling at a loss or a working mama trying to juggle the hustle – we’ve created a community where friendships are born from authenticity, not obligation. Think of us as the social glue that helps bring together mamas who genuinely want to hang out—not just because their kids go to the same school, but because they truly connect with each other.
The Myth of “Perfect” – Can We All Just Stop?
One of the most dangerous myths we face as mothers is the idea of “perfect.” The elusive dream of being able to do it all and still have time to ourselves to light a candle and meditate at the end of the day. Spoiler alert: perfection is a myth. Life is full of wobbles —sometimes you’ll be in your element, spinning all the plates and other times it’s quietly crying in the bathroom because you don’t want your kids to hear. This is the real and it exists for us all.
At Eklektik Mama, we call out the pressure to achieve “perfection” for what it is: an unrealistic expectation that only adds stress to our already overloaded ‘to do’ lists. Instead, let’s focus on embracing the ebb and flow of life. Let’s celebrate the days we feel like supermom and laugh off the days when we’re just getting by. Because here’s the truth: you’re doing amazing, even when it doesn’t feel like it.
A Global Mamahood
While we’re based in Abu Dhabi, our virtual doors are open to mamas everywhere. Motherhood knows no borders (or time zones) and the challenges, joys, and laughter of raising little humans are universal. Whether you’re up at 3 a.m. feeding a newborn, or navigating the pre-teen years, there’s a mama out there who’s right there with you—and that’s the beauty of our community.
Eklektik Mama isn’t just about making friends—it’s about building a mamahood. One where brutal honesty, humour and mutual support are the foundation. Our mamas come from all walks of life, but we’re all united by the desire to connect deeply and laugh a little louder.
So, What’s Next?
If you’re ready to ditch the mom guilt, stop chasing perfection and finally find friends you actually want to hang out with, you’ve come to the right place. At Eklektik Mama, we’re redefining what it means to be called ‘Mama’. Spoiler: it doesn’t involve doing everything perfectly. It’s about showing up, loving fiercely and leaning on your community when you need it.
Join us, whether you’re based in Abu Dhabi or across the globe. Let’s make motherhood a little more joyful, a lot more honest, and way less lonely. Because we’re all in this together—messy buns, meltdowns and all.
