What do I do when I’m not mommin? I am a midwife, and I adore it! Sure it’s challenging at times but I know for me there is no better job in the world. I am a full time midwife and a full time mama, so how does this work? A few months ago it
Not many of my Instagram followers will know that by the age of 29, I had been married…. and divorced. Now I’m in a totally different place in my life, it’s not something I choose to dwell on, but it’s also something I’m not ashamed to talk about. I had not long turned 22 and

We all feel down sometimes. Stuff happens. Sometimes life throws you a curve ball. We feel all the feels, sometimes for a reason, and sometimes for no good reason at all.
