It’s my hope that this website, which I founded in 2009, will become a regular source of inspiration, encouragement and comfort for you. We’re old friends here, and I’ve got stories to tell (and things to share). So grab a cuppa (or a glass) and stay a while.

I understand now why the “mom chop” exists. It’s not for ease, like I originally thought. It’s because of postpartum hair loss. I did the opposite of most and grew my hair out after having my son. Or, rather, I was in the middle of growing my hair out when I got pregnant/had my son. I had no idea...
4 principles to remember when you’re having a hard time
I have this mantra that if taken out of context could probably spark some controversy. It’s It’s only wrong because you’re making it wrong. Again, out of context, bad. Very bad.
