Helping moms navigate motherhood, life, and health with a focus on honesty and practicality
Motherhood is a lot. Let’s get through it together.
Here’s my thing.
Too many moms place themselves last. We obsess over how many vegetables our kids are getting, but we forget to eat. We plan outings for our kids to make sure they have good experiences and intellectual stimulation, but we don’t do that for ourselves. We shame our bodies even as we struggle to find time to work out. We often stress over how we can best support our kids without considering support for ourselves.
At its best, the mom experience is often simply prioritizing others over yourself. At its worst, it’s active neglect and shame.
Maybe we stop doing that.
Bonafide Motherhood is about providing helpful, practical advice for moms who feel overwhelmed by the very idea of starting to take care of themselves while also providing support for all the different aspects of motherhood. From pregnancy to that first year to taking care of yourself for life, we’ve got something for you. Whether you’re a new mom just figuring it out or a veteran mom who just needs some help, you’re welcome here.
Let’s get to it.
Meet the mom
I’m Erin
I have three sons under 5, and I’m still figuring it out. This site isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about sharing the things I’ve learned over the course of almost five years of motherhood while juggling my own mental and physical health. I’ve made my health a priority because it has to be. And now, I’m taking you along for the ride because you deserve to be able to do that too.
