As mom of two, I know what it's like to be inundated with constant images and blogs of perfectly curated parenting. In an attempt to keep #MomLife real I am sharing the ups and downs of parenting and how I survive it . Filter not included.
In this episode, I share a bit more about how I struggled and learned to manage my mental health during the last year and it started with finally acknowledging it and seeking help.
Judging people's parenting choices seem to be on the rise and getting pretty vitriolic. A hot button topic that brings out the worst judgement is a sleep training method called cry it out or CIO and I'm gonna talk about it!

In the spirit of Christmas, I am taking a page from The Sound of Music and I’m sharing my top 5 #MomLife “favourite things”. From diaper bags to teethers I run through the reasons why these are my must-haves.

The whole notion of "get your body back" after pregnancy is BS for so many of us for many reasons be it exhaustion, genetics or you just don't want to! In this week's episode, I discuss my issues with this push to "get your body back" quickly or at all post-pregnancy and how I deal with the "get your body back" mind trap.
In this episode, I share some very raw truths about the effects colic had on me and my youngest son and how my family survived it.
This episode is about how "perfect" moms on social media can make us feel like crap or inspire us and all the other emotions in between; as well as why are we so "judgy".
In the first episode, I talk about the things I do to "keep it together" from embracing the exhaustion to rolling with the punches, I do what I gotta do to make it through the day.
