Why Mothers Struggle to Prioritize Their Health—And How Support Can Help
A recent survey by Habuild reveals that many mothers struggle to focus on their own health. Years of family responsibilities often push personal well-being to the side. Now, new findings suggest structured support could make a difference. The Habuild survey found that nearly 59% of mothers would prioritise their health more if given structured programs. Most respondents, over 60%, were aged 45 and above. This age group frequently faces long-term neglect of their own needs.
Many participants also stressed the importance of expert advice and community backing. Without these, maintaining health goals becomes harder. Saurabh Bothra, co-founder of Habuild, noted that mothers want to focus on their well-being. But they need clear guidance, structured plans, and a supportive network to stay on track.
The results highlight a common challenge: balancing family duties with self-care. While the desire for better health exists, practical barriers often stand in the way. The survey underscores a key issue—mothers recognise the need for health improvements but lack the right tools. Structured programs, expert input, and peer support could help bridge this gap. Without such resources, long-term habits may remain difficult to establish.
