Hi There!

I'm a thirty-something mother who has grappled with perinatal depression. My mission statement is to speak out about my struggle, in gritty detail so that other mothers know that they are not alone. My mission is to speak the unspeakable. My objective is to paint a picture of a variety of motherhood experiences and to give voice to the complicated feelings that motherhood presents.

I'm interested in hearing your story. Together we can break the silence!

The hint of Spring, despite the cold and the gray. Bird fights, frites and #momjeans on a jetlagged Saturday.

Lounging on the couch while my men go get me flowers after a long week. #happy #internationalwomensday #redlipstick I'm so thankful for all the wonderful women in my life. I treasure my friendships and experiences. I'm surrounded by so many talented, generous, smart and kind women in my life.

#nonscalevictory today for #bbg I woke up and was looking at the workouts. Specifically this X pushup where you do a push up and then tap the opposite ankle, then repeat on the other side. I immediately thought, "shoot, I'm not going to be able to do those". Turns out they were fine and I did that exercise the quickest. Loving my strong arms. #sweat12wc #bbgmoms #week47 #bbgmums #2019bbg

Down to 73kgs (160.9). Sooo close to getting back to the good ole 150s. #mondayweighin #weightwatchers #bbg #bbgmoms #bbgmums #sweat12wc #2019bbg #ootd #hellothere #leatherskirt

I've been much more affected by cloudy and gray days since having my son. Living in #brussels🇧🇪 isn't exactly the best place to be if you struggle with that. So, we planned a lot of travel in the winter months to make sure that I get tons of vitamin D. We are truly experiencing a lot of amazing things in this season of life, but it is not without it's shadows. There are other things going on in our life that are very challenging. Despite all this, I'm in a very happy peak right now. But it was the result of years of work, professionally, medically and physically. #theroadgoeseveronandon #mentalhealth
