In this episode of Motherhood Diaries I’m joined by a beautiful mama, Ashley, for a conversation that feels like sitting on the couch with a friend who just gets it. Together, we open up about the identity shift that comes with becoming a mom, the moments we realized we needed something that was just ours, and the guilt that can come with it.

We talk about what it looks like to reconnect with yourself again — not in some big, life-changing way, but in the small, meaningful moments that slowly bring you back.

Because the truth is — you didn’t stop being you when you became a mom. And maybe… this is your reminder to come back to her 💫

We talk about:

🌼 the identity shift no one prepares you for

🥲 the guilt that can come with choosing yourself

🌱 starting small and finding your “thing” again

🤍 and how it actually makes you a better mom

For the first time on Motherhood Diaries, I’m not opening the pages alone — my husband joins me as my very first guest. He’s been by my side through every moment of my motherhood journey and has been my biggest cheerleader along the way.

In this honest conversation, we talk about the behind-the-scenes of parenthood: how becoming parents reshapes a marriage, the hard seasons nobody talks about, and the lessons we’ve learned together along the way. As well as a glimpse into my motherhood journey through my husbands eyes.

If you’ve ever wondered how parenthood changes a relationship, or just want a glimpse at the real-life moments behind the highlight reel, this episode is for you.

Tune in to hear:

•How parenthood has reshaped our marriage

•The unseen parts of motherhood from a partner’s perspective

•Lessons, laughter, and real talk from our journey together

Before kids, I had a very long list of things I’d NEVER do as a mom. Letting my kid eat a treat or snack before dinner? Never. Using my phone as a babysitter? Absolutely not. Nope.

Fast forward a few years… and spoiler alert: I’ve broken almost every single one of those rules. In this episode, I get real about the messy, chaotic, and hilarious moments that made me realize motherhood isn’t about perfection—it’s about survival, flexibility, and learning to laugh at yourself along the way.

If you’ve ever done something you swore you’d never do (and let’s be honest, we all have), this episode is your new best friend. Tune in, laugh, and maybe even cringe a little with me—because motherhood is messy, imperfect, and 100% relatable.
