About Me

Hey sister!

So glad you’re here to share my little slice of the web.

Here’s my short, sweet little story.

My name is Kristin – I’m a 40-something travel obsessed mama of 4 who has her head in the clouds and feet planted in the middle of the soul sucking midwest (for now). I’m an eternal optimist, lover of cute mugs, flip flops, books and all things cozy.

I’ve spent 4 decades making mistakes (sometimes more than once) and trying my best to learn how to be a better human, not only for my family but for myself.

I’m married to my best friend and have have two girls (22 and 18) and 6 year old twin, red-headed boys. If you have a moment, say a quick prayer because y’all….the shit those boys put me through. It’s unholy.  Ok, maybe I’m being a little dramatic but it sure feels like it sometimes.

My days are nothing short of one hot mess right after another. But I love this life and all the crazy, magic, messy chaos it has to offer.

I’m a total work in progress – always pushing against limiting beliefs and negative self talk.  I still struggle with feelings of unworthiness and shame. I fall into the comparison trap all too often and mom guilt hits me hard usually when I’m trying to fall asleep and my husband is already snoring. The annoyance. How do they fall asleep so damn fast anyway?

I’m just a mom trying to raise good humans who don’t need too much therapy and want to make the world a better place.

And this is my life. Welcome to my side of crazy 🙂

~ Kristin
