Hi Aleks! Excited to get to know you more and I fully relate to your desire to unscrew motherhood… something I quickly realized when I became a mom 3.5 years ago is that nobody cares what you do before you have children and everyone tried to put their nose in your business ones you do! xx

Absolutely. There's something about motherhood that seems to make people feel entitled to share their unsolicited advice and opinions with you!

I just found you and I'm so excited to read through the archives and keep up with your new posts.

We've got a lot in common! I'm a mom of a toddler who is very into intentional living, mindfulness, and meditation.

I also work in the vein of supporting moms: I'm a holistic career coach focused on burnout and career fulfillment for working mothers.
