By the look of her latest #Momsplaining video [1] on The Ellen DeGeneres [2] Show, Kristen Bell [3], a mom of two, just gets it. In the six-minute video, she gave three moms doses of much-needed me time [4] and discussed how it's OK to not want to be needed by someone [5] every single second of the day. She explained that women can be "better about stating our needs" and that it's perfectly fine to ask for help once in a while. After all, there's no go-to parenting handbook for moms to turn to when they're feeling stressed out.
Her biggest takeaway? "Sometimes, you just need to get nudie and have a stranger touch you all over," she said, in reference to getting a massage. "Moms, you can't take care of others until you take care of yourself." Cheers to that, mamas!
