They say it takes a village to raise a child, but what happens when the village is gone? I'm a mom who's raising two kids from two very different worlds — Gen Z and Gen Alpha and this time, I'm doing it solo. "From Gen Z to Alpha: A One-Woman Village" is where I share the highs, the heartaches, and the hope in between.

Some stories are written with love, others with strength, and hers had a few stitches thrown in, too. A woven stitch of promise that the baby would stay longer when her uterus was determined to give in earlier. When her body whispered ‘not yet,’ doctors replied with a thread of hope. How did she manage the strict bed rest? Let’s welcome Eve Smiley, who held on, one stitch at a time, that seemed to come with a community of love.

Today, I have the honor of introducing a truly inspiring mother—a woman who defied all odds and proved that strength, faith, and resilience can rewrite any story. Despite Doctors’ warnings, she faced a high-risk pregnancy head-on, first with a singleton and then with multiples. Not only did she navigate those challenges, but she also did so with grace and determination.

Her journey of raising three beautiful, unique daughters is one of love, acceptance, and growth. She openly shares her experiences—the highs, the struggles, and the deep joy of motherhood.

Beyond that, she embraces her heart condition and transverse myelitis, showing us all that health challenges don’t define us; our spirit does. Her story is one of courage, self-acceptance, and unwavering strength.
