MY STORY

Balancing kids, work, my husband (and the million other things that moms do) felt anything but balanced. 

In fact, it felt totally chaotic and I was sick of being the “frazzled” mom.  I knew I could not be alone, but why did I feel so alone? So, I decided to start the show to build a community of moms that could laugh, cry, vent, learn, and grow together.
