Becoming a mom is a life-changing experience—beautiful, transformative, and yes, completely overwhelming. It’s as though no one can honestly prepare you for the love you’ll have for your baby, but also for just how much you’ll second-guess yourself or how deeply you’ll feel the weight of trying to do it all. And somewhere in the […]

Motherhood is life-changing in ways you never fully expect—emotionally, physically, and yep, professionally. The term motherhood penalty might not have crossed your mind before becoming a mom, but chances are you’ve felt its impact at some point. A slower career progression? Reduced earning potential? The overwhelming need to “prove yourself” at work? Moms face unique […]

Life with two toddlers is nonstop, and between juggling work, opening another Pilates studio in California, and keeping up with everyday chaos, dinner often sneaks up on me. By 5 p.m., my kids are starving (hello, hangries!). And I’ve come to accept this isn’t the season of life where I have perfectly prepared dinners on […]

Deciding to leave your job after maternity leave—for a new role or a pause—is a big, emotional choice. There’s plenty of debate about making big career moves after having a baby. But those first few months bring fresh perspective and clarity. For me, the decision to change jobs became clear after returning from my first […]

I’ve found so many clichés of motherhood to be true, one of them being that your baby’s first year goes by in the blink of an eye. There are so many beautiful, exciting moments, but somehow, the details of firsts and milestones can feel hard to keep track of. I wonder why that is? (Couldn’t […]

Contrary to what society suggests (and what I definitely believed), motherhood doesn’t mean losing yourself. Instead it’s a journey towards discovering your most authentic self. Motherhood has pushed me to grow in ways I never imagined, giving me the patience to see things clearly and the confidence to act with purpose. It’s helped me figure […]

If you are building your nursery, convertible cribs are a must IMO. Anything that grows with your baby, think newborn to toddlerhood and beyond, is an investment worth looking into. These types of cribs not only save space and money in the long run, but they’re also a stylish and functional addition to any nursery. […]

If you’re anything like me, you’re always on the lookout for little things that can make a big difference in the life of your family. Humidifiers might not be the first thing that pops into your head when you think about creating a cozy, happy environment for your little one, but trust me—they can be […]

Valentine’s Day is one of those holidays that sneaks up on you—and suddenly, your kids need cards for a classroom swap, daycare, or to give to loved ones. The purpose is sweet, and as my son and daughter get older, I really love seeing them get excited about days like these, but it doesn’t need […]

Figuring out the world of baby formula can feel overwhelming. And if you’re anything like me, you’ve probably spent late nights Googling ingredient lists, scrolling through reviews, and wondering what’s actually the best option for your baby. There’s no shortage of opinions, societal pressure, and mom guilt when it comes to how we feed our […]

If you’re staring at that baby shopping list wondering if a humidifier really needs to be on it, know there’s a whole group of other moms who’ve thought the same thing, myself included. We’ve all been there, weighing the must-haves against the nice-to-haves, especially when it comes to nursery essentials. A humidifier can actually make […]

Getting toddlers to eat their veggies can feel like an endless battle of wills. If you’ve ever set down a plate with even the smallest portion of green vegetables, only to watch them get pushed aside (or fed to the dog), you’re definitely not alone. It’s a challenge so many of us face, and sometimes […]

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, Willow (2.5 years old) loves nothing more than to yell “Christmas” at the site of any Christmas lights. I think all of us moms […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

When you’re pregnant, it can feel like so much is changing—including how you approach food. Suddenly, there’s a lot more to consider: reading labels a bit closer, noticing cravings kick up a notch, steering clear of certain ingredients, and figuring out how to pack your day with the nutrients you and your baby need. But […]

It doesn’t even feel like it was that long ago that I was pregnant with my first born, Caden. I was deciding between a midwife and an OBGYN (obstetrician gynecologist), opting for a midwife since I was hoping for a birth experience that would be low-intervention and focused on holistic care. And I found a midwife […]

Choosing the right baby carrier can feel a bit like finding the perfect pair of shoes—one size definitely doesn’t fit all. Whether you’re looking for something cozy for those early newborn days, a carrier that makes travel with a little one easier, or a versatile option that grows with your baby, there’s a carrier out […]

Want to hear a fun fact? I actually sold my Nuna Rava Convertible Car Seat just a few months after buying it. *gasp* You may be wondering why I made such a decision, considering Nuna is a trusted and beloved carseat brand among many moms. But just like my quest for the perfect stroller, I […]
