Don't believe everything you think.



My story





I am a millennial woman from New Orleans trying to figure out how to do all the things.


Parent well. Be wife. Manage healthy home. Succeed at career. Indulge in hobbies. Exercise. Learn and educate. Strive for sustainability. Stay sane. Eat kale. And more...of course you know there is always more.


I am just one of millions of women in the midst of an insane juggling act we call motherhood in a time when expectations of us have become unattainable.


I've got questions. Let's find some answers.



my mission





I want a space to organize and analyze the many facets of being a thirty-something millennial today: jobs, homeowning, parternship, parenting, environmental crises, feminism.


As a married, working mother of two, I find myself dizzied by the expectations (real or imagined) I face each day as I exist in this world. I want to engage with peers who also toil with frustration, anger, and overwhelm. I want to create some breathing room.


Join me in solidarity as we navigate this season of life.
