Mom Life

Motherhood is messy, magical, and sometimes feels like planning a full-blown expedition just to leave the house.

This space is for the moms who are doing their best—and maybe fantasizing about a solo Target run like it’s an international vacation.

I’m Megan—a licensed therapist, new mom, and firm believer that you can be grateful and exhausted, joyful and overwhelmed. You can crave your baby’s snuggles and a moment of quiet in the car with drive-thru iced coffee. And you’re not alone in any of it..

Here, you’ll find:

• Relatable reflections from my own motherhood journey—because some days are pure magic, and some days you’re just surviving on caffeine and half-eaten granola bars

• Therapy-informed tips for navigating mom guilt, identity shifts, and the emotional rollercoaster that is bedtime

• Tiny pockets of self-care that actually fit into your day (even if it’s just deep breathing while reheating your coffee for the third time)

• Travel hacks with a baby—yes, it’s possible to pack light(ish) and still bring the sound machine, white noise app, and three backup pacifiers

This space is for the moms who love their babies fiercely—but also secretly dream of a solo spa day with no schedule and a robe that stays clean..
