I Have No Privacy (And I Think Asked For It)
Let me start with this: privacy is relative. When you invite someone into your home to help you manage your life, you’re not just handing off tasks—you’re opening the door to your most intimate, unfiltered world. And that’s not a bad thing—it’s just the price of truly being supported. When I first brought Mrs. Heart […]
Defining Luxury—in Motherhood. (And Why EchoMom Is Just One Way to Claim It)
We’ve been taught that luxury lives outside of us.That it’s in five-star hotels, designer bags, spa days, and silence from leaving home. But for mothers—especially ambitious, intentional, deeply feeling mothers—luxury looks different. Luxury in motherhood is not about indulgence.It’s about access.Ease.Emotional spaciousness. It’s the feeling of: It’s having your needs met before they become urgent.Having […]
Get Plenty of Rest–But Don’t SLEEP
A Love Letter to the Luxurious, Ambitious Mother There is something truly luxurious about a well-rested woman. Not luxury in the five-star-spa, expensive-robe kind of way (though we welcome that too).We mean the kind of luxury that shows up as capacity. The kind of rest that: At EchoMom, when we say “get plenty of rest,” […]
I Forgot to Have Sex—and That’s When I Realized I Needed Help
One morning, I woke up and realized something strange:I had completely forgotten to have sex. Not avoided. Not suppressed.Forgotten. Seven months had passed. No intimacy. No longing. No curiosity.

The Moment I Felt Peace in a Chore
From Obligation to Choice There was a time when folding towels was just another thing on my endless list of chores. Back then, it wasn’t about peace or mindfulness—it was about getting it done, checking it off, and moving on to the next task. Fast forward to today, and I don’t fold towels anymore. Not […]
How Many NOs Did It Take To Get Here?
How many no’s does it take to get to bed by 9 p.m.? If you’re a mom, you already know the answer: a lot. No to my kids staying up past their bedtime. No to just one more episode of my show. No to scrolling through my phone when I should be winding down. No […]
When My Son Called Me “The Mommiest Mommy”
It was one of those ordinary moments that somehow becomes unforgettable. My son, Austin, looked up at me with his signature grin and said: “You’re the mommiest mommy of all mommies.” I laughed out loud—because, of course, that’s such an Austin thing to say. He has this gift for coming up with phrases that stick […]
“It’s Too Expensive” — Until It Wasn’t
Sis, let me tell you about the myth that had me in a chokehold: “It’s too expensive.” This one? Oh, it was my anthem. It was the soundtrack playing in the background every time I thought about hiring help, investing in myself, or even just upgrading something in my life that would make things easier. […]
