I am learning how to DIY with absolutely ZERO experience. It feels scary and vulnerable to share this but also exhilarating and fun! After nearly a decade building businesses online both Michael and I have been craving a life off of our computers and being present in the “real” world. As our family grows and […]

Time to read: 5 minutes This past year has been filled with some of the hardest moments in my life. One after another, after another. There were many days I felt like it would never stop, and I wouldn’t be able to catch my breath. Work, family, health, finances, no matter the category it felt […]

Time to read: 7 minutes In August of 2022 we added a baby girl named Noa Chavanne to our family. For me, going from no children to one was filled with identity shifts, mourning a certain kind of freedom and an expanding of my capacity. Moving from one child to two has been a lot […]

Time to read: 12 minutes If there is anything in my life that I am really proud of, it is my marriage to Michael. I didnโ€™t believe relationships like ours could exist – I thought that I would have to settle somewhere, that there would be unspoken tensions or that things would seem to be […]

Time to read: 12 minutes Talking about sex is taboo. Talking about sex postpartum seems to be even more controversial. With that being said, before I get into the nitty gritty of my own experience – because I love talking about sex – I want to make one thing very clear: sex/intimacy post partum is […]
