For When You Are Overwhelmed
It happens to all of us. We get overwhelmed. We get stuck. We don’t know what our next step is.
This is the place to work through this stuff.
I Love My Kids – But I Don’t Even Know Who I Am Anymore.
My oldest son is four months away from being seventeen. He reminded me of that this morning. This is madness to me. How did the last seventeen years pass by so quickly? I vividly remember the day he was born. I was induced at 7am, but by 7pm, my baby was still in my...
Being a Mom is the Most Important Thing…But It Isn’t the ONLY Thing
My message is never not going to be "You can be a mom and have other work in the world." If you are a mom, raising kids is absolutely part of the life God designed for you, it's absolutely the most important thing, but that's definitely not the only plan He has in...
A Love Letter to My Sister (and maybe to you too).
When I was about 3 1/2, my mom did the worst thing she's ever done to me and brought home my baby sister. It took me about 16 years before I finally appreciated her, my sister I mean, and the only thing that caused it to happen was...
For When You Are Afraid
First off, Fear is a liar.
Or at least most of the time it is. I mean sometimes fear is a real indicator of danger, so you probably need to learn how to distinguish. These posts will help with that.

Bold Women Modern Edition: Marie Curie
Did you know that prior to 1869, the periodic table didn't exist? Me either. I'm just enough of a science geek that I find how it was developed to be extremely interesting. Sixty years before the table was developed, scientists were aware of about 47 elements. By...
The Decluttering Challenge
This week in Free to Be (that's my 6 week course for boldly taking control of your life so you can chase your passions) we are talking decluttering. So what pops up on my Pinterest board today, but the perfect decluttering content? So, it's on. Starting November 1st,...
Bold Women Modern Edition: Jane Goodall
You know who Jane Goodall is, right? She has fancy words after her name, like primatologist and anthropologist - but what I bet you don't know is what she was before her famous work with chimpanzees. I know that I, personally, had no idea. I assumed that she went to...

Money Shizz
If you haven’t read my book Mom vs Debt, you should grab a copy. But in the meantime, here are a few blogs that can get you started with all money stuff.
Are Your Car Costs Holding You Back?
A guest post by Giles Kirkland When it comes to being a parent, some costs are necessary, others are not. For most families, the car falls within the former. Whether it’s the daily school run, doing the shopping or the various other duties that ultimately arise, a...
What’s so wrong with living in debt anyway?
As someone who has quite a bit of experience with this - I can tell you that sometimes it feels like debt is just inevitable. You are always going to be behind anyway, so what's the point of getting out of it? It's super easy, especially when there are times that no...
I Paid off $64k in Debt – and it was NOT via Prostitution.
Were you aware the only plausible way for a woman to pay off an astronomical amount of debt is via prostitution? Yeah, I didn't either. But that's what someone actually said about me. I guess stripping isn't an option for moms, but turning tricks makes sense....
All the Mom Things
The good, the bad and the ugly. It’s all right here.

Don’t Let Anything Hold You Back
Alright, so I'm no spring chicken. I'm also not exactly fit. And when I need an excuse for why I can't do something, those are two excellent options. So, I'd been dreaming of the re-purposing of this travel blog into a brand new travel-inspired project for weeks....
