Feeling like you've lost yourself in motherhood? You're not alone, mama. In this powerful conversation with Julia Sewell, founder of The Self Made Mom movement, we're debunking the myth that mothers must sacrifice themselves to truly serve their families.

Julia shares her transformative journey from depletion and desperation to becoming the "sun" of her family's solar system - and how you can too. This isn't about choosing yourself over your children; it's about remembering that you're also a member of the family you serve.

Learning with Kelsey

You know that moment when you're looking at your toddler and wondering, "Am I doing enough to prepare them for school?"

Here's what I love about Learning with Kelsey: Kelsey gets it because she's lived it. As a former teacher AND a mom, she understands what kids actually need to thrive in kindergarten AND how overwhelming it feels trying to figure it all out as a parent.

Each month, you get beautifully curated boxes with hands-on activities that make learning genuinely fun (not stressful). The truth is, it's not really about the activities at all - it's about giving us confidence that we're nurturing our children's growth in exactly the right way.

Plan to Eat

Let's be real - that 4 PM "what's for dinner?" panic is so real. (The one where you're standing in Target trying to remember what's in your fridge while your kids are asking for goldfish for the third time? Yeah, that one. 😅)

Here's what I'm learning about meal planning: it's not really about perfect Pinterest-worthy meals at all. It's about reclaiming your peace of mind and getting back precious time with your family.

Plan to Eat has been a total game-changer for our family - you can organize recipes, automatically generate shopping lists, and plan your week's meals in minutes.

The truth is, when we take care of this one thing, it creates space for what matters most: being present with our families instead of stressed about dinner every single night.
