Hey there, I’m Heidi! An Introverted mama of 6. (for real, I know it doesn’t make sense – LOL)

here’s my story

In 2024, approaching my birthday cake, lit ablaze with 50 candles, life felt a little extra off kilter. In the midst of menopause, middle-nesting with 3 grown kids and 3 littles still at home, I entered into some transitional phase of life that often felt like a runaway train but is suddenly now a bit more like walking on sunshine. And I love the sunshine!

I really feel like I had done it all, veterinary technician, full-time mom, mommy blogger, photographer, more babies, health and fitness coach, personal growth addict, home manager, Corgi wrangler, kitty cat hoarder, and juggler of all things. Life upended a little and here I am. After some deep introspection, leaning into my introvert, my empath, and embracing my winter homebody, some self-rediscovery led me back to blogging! Maybe for my own mental health, but this mid-life crazy needs it’s own quiet space for therapeutic release and helpfulness too. I have a lot of life experience to share and I hope that helps you too.

Maybe we have some things in common? Bonus points if you’re also an Survivor junkie, personal development book addict, emotional eater, and have hot flash survival tips!

I’m excited that you’re here!

First Things First…

Maybe you’re new to this mid-life era, or maybe you’re a seasoned pro. With some been there and done that wisdom and some throwing the hands in the air trying to figure it out, let’s laugh it out and embrace this time together. Join me on this rollercoaster adventure.

Ready for something new? You’re in the right place.

It isn’t always about having it all, living a posh life, or all the time freedom you can afford. It is about embracing what’s right in front of you, being present and thoughtful, and open minded to the possibilities, no matter how big or how small.

All good things are rooted in positive mindset and a willingness to give yourself the space to grow.

In this space, I hope you see some reflections of yourself, learn from experiences, information, and stories, and I hope you laugh a little or a lot along the way. Life’s too short to not enjoy the day!
