super mom

So as some of you know, I was nominated for a competition and I’ve been incessantly asking for support via votes to keep me in the running for a chance to win the title of “Super Mom.” I find myself asking, what does this title mean to me and how am I to be chosen […]

it takes a village

Some women choose single mamahood. For others, single mamahood chooses them. In my case, it happened to choose me. Life has a special way of giving you exactly what you need even if it’s hard to see at the moment. Six years ago, if you were to have asked me whether I thought separation and, […]

mental health check-in

With the spring season comes change and in very “on brand” style, we decided to embrace a full on business move and pivot on our business model. I must admit, I’ve been a little removed from the blog but I promise it’s for good reason. After 4+ years, we bid farewell to little Lola & […]

here’s to the mom tribe

The other night, I went on a Wegman’s run and those close to me know that I do enjoy an hour or two walking the aisles pondering over snack choices and gluten-free items to try… and don’t get me started on the assortment of cheeses. One thing I don’t enjoy though is squeezing this therapeutic […]

PXL_20210302_012243964.PORTRAIT.jpg This past Monday was my eldest daughter’s birthday and with every birthday comes many bittersweet sentiments tied to how fast time is moving.

Woman with 2 girls

If you’re a single parent you know that dating is rough… and I don’t mean this because of a lack of possible suitors, I’m referring to the juggling act that happens in order to make alone time a real possibility. As an entrepreneur navigating a pandemic and managing remote learning without co-parenting help, it’s definitely […]

and we’re back, community!

It has been quite some time, I know. Last you heard from me, I was figuring out this single, mompreneur life while finding the rhythm to being a mother of two. Guess what? I am still there! I guess we can all agree parenthood is like that, a constant ebb and flow where you are […]

Happy New Year! I know it’s been a little while since my last post but will you forgive this single mama whose holiday hit her hard. While I want to just blame the overwhelming emotions that slapped me at the close of 2018, it was the taking care of two sick kids for two weeks […]

and then there were TWO

Two kids hugging on a couch

As you guys can imagine, the transition from having one child to having two is not an easy one. You mix that up with the brand new single mom status and it can be a recipe for some disastrous moments. One of the things I am trying to keep top of mind is that although […]

my Mami arms

Yesterday, as I was showering my toddler using my right hand and holding baby on my left arm, I thought, it’s only right to dedicate a post to my Mami arms. I know it sounds kind of funny, but it wasn’t until I became a mom that I realized the endless things you can do […]
