One year ago today, I found out I was going to be her Mom 🤎

On April 22nd, 2025 I told Chris, “either I am pregnant or I am crazy.” One test later — positive. I cried tears of with a BIG side of fear.

I always wanted to be a mom (especially a girl one!!!), but I was terrified of how our life would change in ways I couldn’t even comprehend.

But here’s the thing — Marlowe has changed our life, and me MAJORY… only in the best ways.

She’s been the biggest reminder to me that what is meant for you will not pass you by. She’s healed parts of me that had been hardened by entrepreneurship, pain, and fear of failing, simply by reminding me who I am when I see myself and my power through her eyes.

We call her our angel because not just because she’s a dream baby, but because since she’s been here, so much of what we’ve been working toward has come to life.

She’s brought a deep sense of peace back to me.

I share this because you hear so much about how hard motherhood is (and it is), but I am the happiest I’ve ever been because of her.

Now she’s my built-in bestie & part of the girl gang 💕

2025: thank you. 2026: we’re ready for more.
