Welcome!
Hi, I’m Carolyn…
If you’re looking for a place to sit and sip that coffee while it’s hot, take a break from the chaos of life, and scroll through some fun content… you’re in the right place.
I created this blog to share a
little bit of everything
Quick tips and hacks to make mom-life a little easier and less chaotic, a functional outfit to add to your everyday wardrobe, or an entire room renovation to make a sanctuary in your own home. I also designed this space to reimagine motherhood — embracing your own journey, allowing duality of emotions as a parent, and finding joy outside of being a mom without the guilt. You can still be a great mom while also saying “yes” to yourself everyday.

As a mom of 3 rambunctious little boys under seven years old, I know it can be hard for moms to find a moment to yourself to breathe and hear your own thoughts.
Being married to my best friend for nine years, I know leaning into our partnership has helped us navigate different stages of parenthood. As a postpartum occupational therapist, I’ve dedicated my work to helping moms recover from pregnancy and postpartum, find their footing in this transition into motherhood, and feel supported in every way. I hope to bring all these experiences to life through this blog.
So glad you’re here, friend!
coffee order?
Simple vanilla latte with oat or almond milk (because dairy doesn’t let me be great anymore). It’s probably more psychological and less about the caffeine, but having that sip of coffee in the AM really does start my day off right!
Favorite show?
Bridgerton — I know some may roll their eyes at this one, but I’m a diehard fan of the books and the show. It started as an escape from reality during the height of Covid. For me it was the pro-feminism plot-line, some eye candy (hello, Rege-Jean Page), and envisioning regency era with a diverse and integrated society. That’s all I needed to get hooked!
Morning routine?
Drop the kiddos off at school, take the dog for a walk while listening to an audiobook or podcast, then sitting down to work with a fresh cup of coffee
Favorite season?
Fall — my birthday is in October, the colors of the leaves and crispness of the air, favorite versatile wardrobe for layering and accessorizing…and it’s spooky season!
