Learning To Love My Body

As much as I’ve worked to love myself and relearn to love myself over the years, I haven’t always loved my body. That’s been something I’ve struggled with quite a bit, more than I’d like to admit. Having babies changes your body. Aging changes your body. Eating habits, exercise, so many things change your bodyContinue reading “Learning To Love My Body”

Teach Your Son About Periods

You know that post that has floated around social media for a while with the caption that goes something like, “Your girl wakes up like this, what you doing?” And it shows a girl laying in bed with blood on her pants or on the sheets. Yeah I hate that post. I’ve seen many commentsContinue reading “Teach Your Son About Periods”

Celebrating 2 Years

Ah! I can’t believe it’s been 2 years already. 2 years ago after sitting on this for years just waiting for the right moment to start, not knowing there would never be a right moment, I finally took the leap. A leap I will never regret. The only thing I regret is not starting sooner.Continue reading “Celebrating 2 Years”

I think sometimes we live in a world where people get so set in their ways that they refuse to see things any other way. It comes in many forms and sometimes that means the best of people get hurt in the process. Don’t take it personally and know that it’s not you, it’s them.Continue reading “Change Isn’t Bad”

Last week one of my amazing supporters asked a great question, “why are moms so quick to judge other moms?” While I did answer her with my opinion in my last Q&A, I would like to dive more in depth into it.

Your Mental Health Doesn’t Define You

“It was a normal day. She took her kids to school. Cleaned the house. Went to work. Made dinner. Cleaned again. Prepared everything for the next day. As she went to wash her face before bed, she cried. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. To hide her tears she hopped in the shower. Crying inContinue reading “Your Mental Health Doesn’t Define You”

Mom Brain

I’ve been sitting here staring at a blank page for almost an hour now. My brain literally will not work. I can’t think. There’s nothing running through my head. That says a lot considering there’s always at least one hundred things running through my head at all times. Did I lock the door, are theContinue reading “Mom Brain”
