Making of a Mom

Becoming a mother freed me to pursue my passions

Appreciating the differences between old and new

Embracing the many seasons of motherhood

Learning to share my peace with my children

Embracing a healthier kind of beauty

How I learned to see my body as a friend and not a foe

Pursuing my career while flourishing as a mom

Navigating the transition from one child to two

Do one thing every day that scares you

Living the dream I never knew I had

Finding joy in parenting while  letting go of fear and control

Taking measures to protect your relationship amid new responsibilities

From the darkest moments can come the greatest joys

Phone scrolling, deep thoughts, and distractions are no match against toddlers.

My experience with infertility taught me that more unites us than separates us.

Sometimes, you need to help yourself in order to help others.

My journey through "prenatal purgatory," and the ultrasound picture that made it so, so worth it

You might be surprised what you can learn

Childbirth changes us in ways we may not always see.

What the final, quiet months of pregnancy taught me about myself

Embracing the present moment through care for a child.

Younger me had no idea the joy that was to come.
