Helping midlife moms finally feel enough so they can stop overthinking, take action, and build a life that includes them too.
Something I've been working on is almost here…
Something I have been working on......Hey Reader, I want to share something personal with you. A while back I found myself sitting alone in a quiet house after everyone had gone to bed, asking myself a question I had never let myself ask out loud: Where did I go? I had spent decades pouring everything I had into my family, supporting, nurturing, keeping everything going, and somewhere along the way, I stopped mattering to myself. What a sad place to be in. But after I started sharing on YouTube, I realized that I was not alone in my feelings. Every time I tried to focus on something that was mine, guilt rushed in like a flood. Does this sound familiar? I wrote a book about it. End Mom Guilt in Midlife is available for pre-order right now on Amazon and officially launches this Tuesday, May 12th. It's written for the midlife mom who has given everything to everyone else and is finally ready, even if she's a little scared, to give something back to herself. Inside you'll find 8 chapters that walk you through:
This is not a book about being a better mom. It's a book about becoming a whole woman again and discovering that your family benefits most when you are authentically you. You can pre-order your copy right here:

Hey Reader, Summer has an interesting way of changing the rhythm of life. The alarms aren't quite as early. The schedules aren't quite as full. Homework disappears. Practices slow down. There are more evenings with extra time to fill, more spontaneous ice cream runs, and more opportunities to simply be together. I love this season. I love how the stress level of my house immediately decreases. I love hearing laughter from another room instead of reminders about assignments. I love lingering...
Hey Reader, Summer always starts with such good intentions, doesn’t it? I get all excited to begin the season and ready to get going with everything. We imagine slow mornings, family memories, fresh routines, maybe even finally reading that book sitting on the nightstand since January. Then suddenly someone needs a ride, there are wet towels everywhere, the kitchen somehow closes never, and we’re eating popsicles in the car between errands. That counts as summer too. I have to remind myself...
Arriving 1 day late ↓ Hey Reader, Well… this newsletter is arriving a day late. Let me be honest, that feels pretty fitting for this season of life. Summer has officially arrived over here, and with it comes the strange mix of excitement, chaos, flexibility, family time, travel plans, shifting schedules, and trying to figure out how to keep your own goals alive in the middle of all of it. One minute you’re planning fresh routines and dreaming about slower mornings. The next minute you’re...
