I have been exclusively nursing since the day my daughter was born. Now with her being halfway to 2 years old (no, I am NOT okay) and with her still nursing on demand, we are now in the extended territory. People look at me like I’m crazy when they see the amount of teeth she…
I do not change diapers anymore! For me this important milestone is not just a marker of my Teeny Girl’s independence, this is one milestone that she completed early! My sweet girl had a rough start and she overcame a lot. Her gross motor skills were delayed, due to torticollis and an injury to her…
I’m not one to act as if I am not overwhelmed at times. Sometimes the dog barking is a little too much, other times its the baby trying to crawl into my skin that has me ready to scream, and other times its the fact that my house is always a mess. There are days…
Content creation has been something that I have wanted to do for a long time. However, I am very private about my life. I do not care for anyone’s opinions or for anyone to develop a weird parasocial relationship with me. All I want to do is post my content and go, that’s it. When…

Upon my return to work 4 month postpartum, I was actively looking for a new job. I just wanted to get away from Jane. I had enough of her and her taking digs at me. I interviewed often, at least 3-4 times a week. I kept searching for the perfect job, I needed a salary…
When you look like me, the world is a different experience. My childhood was cut short because people like me are deemed “fast” or “adult like”. I got in trouble constantly for way less than my white peers did. Then stepping into corporate America, there is a higher level of comfort performance. You are supposed…
Dear Single Mothers, I wish that circumstances were different for you. I wish that you were more supported, more rested, and respected. My biggest wish for you is that you stop being blamed for the actions of the men, who refuse to stop being little boys. I wish that your children were treated better by…
So you saw how my pregnancy went right? Let me tell you, my baby’s birth was a wild ride. Grab your snacks, something to drink, and get comfy. I had already been in labor for 5 days. So at this point, my induction was going to just help move this kid along. She was head…
