ABOUT ME
Back when TikTok was still everyone’s dirty little secret, I decided to tell the internet about my struggles. I shed light on the crap shoot that is modern motherhood with awkward dance moves and rage-fueled rants. As it turned out, I wasn’t alone.
Other women were sick of pretending too.
Sharing about my problems helped in countless ways. I realized that I was just as deserving of the care I give everyone else. I learned to say no and prioritize myself. People say I’ve helped them do the same. So, I became known as 'The Honest Mom'.

The thing is, modern motherhood isn't the only thing robbing us of our well-being.
