Moms have the biggest job in the world.
Motherhood Express is a filling station for personal super fuel,
and a safe space to sharpen tools.
A Journal for Newborn Moms
Motherhood Express is a journal of 40 poems and 40 prompts to help you mother by design, rather than default.
Though small, babies take up a lot of room. So do partners, colleagues, family members, friends, and other children. Newborn moms have a unique quest: to discover, design, and develop a completely transformed version of self while taking care of everyone else. Nearly all new mothers struggle with overwhelm, isolation, and anxiety. Nearly one third struggle with depression.
Cultivating safe space for expressive connection can make all the difference.
Motherhood Express is a power tool, treasure box, and therapist rolled into one.
Get the most of your mileage while you journey through early (or renewed) motherhood!
An empty journal makes a great gift.
A full journal makes a memoir.

I worked with my therapist on the 40 Questions and it helped me understand and sort my feelings out, get clear on my truth, and feel more connected to who I am beneath the dark clouds. This sense of connection is what carried me through the darkness until I felt better again." -Stacy, mother of 1
