This book holds so many of the moments that shaped me as a mother, the quiet reckonings, the questions I didn’t yet have language for, the parts of myself I thought I had lost and the ones I slowly met for the first time. It was written from lived experience, from years of sitting with mothers, and from the deep belief that none of us should have to carry the weight of motherhood alone.

If you have ever felt stretched thin, changed, undone, or unsure of who you are becoming, I wrote this for you.
