Kaia, you’re speaking my language. I never want to talk about sleep training; just want to talk about the things I’m making. We should probably get together one of these days…

Community is so freaking important. Especially as mothers. When I first had my kid, I tried joining other mother groups in my community and I flopped hard because all we had in common were that we were mothers (I didn’t fit into the mold, and never do). Now I try to find womxn who are doing the things I’m doing and it’s even better when they are also mothers!

How did you/do make the time/have the energy??? You seem like you’re doing so much (which is awesome!), and I’m curious how that works in your life. Also I’m so glad you created your community. It’s so worth it.
