I’m Em—a mama to a wild toddler and a lovable Goldendoodle, with another little one on the way. Life’s been a whirlwind these past few years—full of loss, new life, work, and everything in between. If I’ve learned anything, it’s that two things can be true at once: I can want to be skinny, and still devour five croissants. I can be in the depths of grief and still find moments of joy. I can be exhausted and still deeply grateful.
So here I am. I started this blog on one of those soul-crushing work trips—the kind that makes you question everything. The kind that leaves you feeling guilty as a mom, disconnected as a wife, and somehow still not enough as an employee. Lying in bed with my 2 a.m. racing thoughts, I needed an outlet and just starting writing.
This isn’t a perfect mommy blog filled with Pinterest-worthy advice. It’s the messy, real-life ramblings of a mom just trying to figure it out—devouring one bite of fabulous food, finding little joys, and unpacking one deep feeling at a time.
Hope you’ll join me on this wild ride.
XOXO,
Em
