Hi friends! 

Today we're chatting about a topic that I've been thinking about for a while. This one felt really important for me to get out into the world because I feel pretty passionate about this! The reality is that motherhood changes us and it can be confusing to "find ourselves" again...LIKE WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?

So, if you're a mom who's ever felt lost in motherhood or wanted to try to find something for yourself either in the midst of motherhood or in a season of more margin...this is FOR YOU!

Today I share bits of my own story and REALLY practical resources that I hope you find helpful -- that practical piece has been a gap to me in the conversations I've found around this idea! 

My hope is that you feel seen -- I think there is something here for everyone and I'd love to hear from you and your takeaways.
