Jeannie Mai has withdrawn from the limelight to safeguard her privacy during her divorce from Jeezy. With a young daughter named Monaco, she faces the challenge of balancing her personal and professional life.
Mai prioritizes self-care, recognizing the need for solitude to process her emotions. She immerses herself in introspection and self-love while ensuring that Monaco remains her utmost priority. Monaco, too, is learning self-soothing techniques and emotional regulation, a valuable lesson she shares with her mother.
Mai instills core values in her daughter, emphasizing honesty, discipline, empathy, and love. She believes that grounding Monaco in these principles will sharpen her instincts and empower her to trust her own judgment.
Mai values Monaco’s opinions and respects her boundaries. She avoids pressuring her daughter into activities and listens to her emotional cues, adjusting plans accordingly. This approach has taught Mai the importance of listening to her own emotions and prioritizing her own well-being.
Through their recent trip to Vietnam with Smile Train, Mai and Monaco spread love and compassion to children with cleft lips and palates. They connected with patients and parents, teaching Monaco about empathy and the importance of supporting those in need.
Mai cherishes her Vietnamese heritage and is proud to share it with Monaco. She believes it is crucial to celebrate her daughter’s culture and instill in her a sense of belonging and pride in her roots.
