This holiday season feels so much different than the past few. Caden is old enough (4.5 years old) to really understand that the holidays and festivities are occurring, and my daughter (2.5 years old) loves nothing more than to yell “Christmas” at the site of any Christmas lights. I think all of us moms want […]

When it comes to strollers, choosing the right one can feel like a pretty big decision—because honestly, it kind of is! A stroller quickly becomes your go-to for everything from daily walks and errands to family vacations and adventures. And with brands like Nuna and UPPAbaby leading the market, it can be tough to decide […]

Perelel Health came on my radar when I first saw their ads popping up all over Instagram earlier this year. And as I always do with most products that grab my attention, especially any health related ones, I dove deep into learning more about the brand and what they have to offer. And TBH, I […]

I love to travel with my family. My 3-year-old alone has been on over 26 flights! We love to explore the world together and experience life through domestic and international travel. (More on flights with a toddler here.) However, traveling as a family of 4 is expensive! Whether you’re lugging around lots of newborn gear […]

Credit cards are a great way to leverage your money and get rewards on purchases. Who doesn’t love that? With so many options out there, finding the best credit cards for moms can help maximize rewards tailored to your spending habits. As long as you’re self-disciplined and living on a budget, credit cards can be […]

There were many, and I mean many, terrible things about having a baby during COVID, but one of the best things that came out of it was the ability to work from home with my baby. Don’t misconstrue – it’s impossible to work a demanding job without childcare even with working from home. Childcare is […]

As a new mom, one of the first questions you’ll ask yourself is: What do you need in a diaper bag? Packing it can feel like a balancing act—you’re either overprepared with a bag bursting at the seams or underprepared and scrambling when the unexpected happens. With my first baby, I lugged around a hefty […]

How many times have you been caught in a diaper bind? “I swear I had another pack in the closet…” said me dozens of times. As a busy working mom, it’s easy to lose track of that diaper stockpile (or lack thereof), resulting in some ad hoc trips to Whole Foods. Being the over-analyzer that […]

We love California. Of course, California is our home, but we also love that there are so many exciting things to do in California with kids. The mild weather, changing landscape, and hundreds of kid-friendly activities make it the perfect place for families to explore year-round. For this post, I wanted to showcase some of […]

As a first-time mom, I thought I’d take a minimum maternity leave and keep an open line of communication with my company. Really, I didn’t think I’d ever stop working. I was worried not upholding my responsibilities would negatively impact my career… especially as the youngest senior leader on a male-dominated team. I was worried […]

Maternity leave allows working moms to step away from their careers and focus entirely on recovery from birth and bonding with their newborn. It’s such an incredible time because you get to fully embrace your role as a mother and finally meet the baby you’ve been carrying for nine months. This season is challenging, beautiful, […]

Sometimes new traditions are born as a result of a clever marketing campaign or celebrity Instagram posts. Many of them, I dismiss, but one custom that I totally bought into is the babymoon. I went on a babymoon during both Caden and Willow’s pregnancies, and choosing luxury babymoon destinations made those trips the perfect way […]

My husband Jason and I love to travel, and we had no plans to slow down once we had kids. Now, my two little ones, Caden and Willow, are seasoned travelers with wanderlust just like their parents. As a family, we’ve explored numerous domestic and international destinations, from road trips across California to relaxing escapes […]

Motherhood is the ultimate juggling act. With so many responsibilities to manage, it can feel overwhelming for anyone—but working moms face a unique set of challenges. Finding that elusive work-life balance often comes with its own share of stress and self-doubt. Sometimes, it’s easy to feel frustrated or even resentful when other moms seem like […]
