More and more these days we are being encouraged to embrace differences. Going further, you’ll see those differences celebrated in a way that they just weren’t years ago.

Let’s talk about Goop!
You already know that listening to podcasts is my thing. Recently, I listened to an episode of Goop. Are you familiar with Goop? It’s the company run by Gweneth Paltrow.

We think we have to choose
We’ve been told time and time again that we can’t have it all. You can’t have the dream job and the man of your dreams. Choose. There’s no way you can be an awesome mom and have a thriving career. Choose. Personally, after my second child, my old employer wondered out loud if I’d be […] Read more…

Isabella Dutton called her babies parasites…
For me, having children was a beautiful thing. Being a mom is truly my favorite gig. I am that mom that doesn’t have complaints about motherhood. I’m not saying things are always perfect.

Keep Calm…You Don’t Suck
One of the first things I learned about after becoming a mom – mom wars. It’s the practice of believing that your way and only your way is right when it comes to motherhood.
