She said, “Mom guilt is real. I always feel so guilty when I’m doing something on my own. I don’t know if I’m a good mom, and I don’t know if my method works, but I’m very hands-on with my daughter, and it was the same with our parents. So I’ve set really good boundaries, but then after work, I’m going right to my daughter.”

Williams has also talked candidly about a health concern she had last week. She disclosed that she had discovered a lump on her neck a few months prior, and at first, she had been told it didn’t require removal. But when the lump became bigger, doctors said her cyst had to be surgically removed.
She never fails to encourage others and her readiness to talk about the pleasures and challenges of motherhood often strikes a chord with mothers across the globe. In the end, Williams’ observations are a potent reminder that expressing these emotions not only builds relationships but also gives people the confidence to accept their own experiences with dignity.
