“People always say, ‘You are the hardest working mama in show business.’ I’m like, ‘No, I’m not.’ There are tons of us. There are so many moms in the industry — my jobs happen to be on-camera,” she explained. “There are so many moms and dads killing it at work every day and doing different jobs. I think that’s important to show your kids, like, ‘This is who I am as a person.’Things don’t stop when you have children; the circle just gets bigger.”

Still, she finds ways to keep a normal schedule, or at least as normal as possible. Clarkson added that she takes her kids to school during the week and makes sure to spend nights with them. She’s also careful to be real with them about her own day-to-day struggles, when it feels appropriate. An important lesson she learned in therapy was: “Don’t hide everything from your kids. Obviously, don’t talk about stuff that you shouldn’t talk about, but it’s OK if they see you cry, or it’s OK if they see you’ve had a bad day.”

We have no doubt that Clarkson’s kids are rooting so hard for their mama and all her amazing achievements, just like we are!

Even when you’re famous, Mom Guilt is a thing, as these celebrity moms show.
