The BoldHeartMama desires to enjoy living out the choices that she’s made for herself and for her family. She is a relentless learner: curious, inquisitive, and open to the possibilities of her life and of the human condition. She understands that there isn't one right way—she asks questions that dig deeper to make sense of it all and to find her own path.

She pays attention to and nurtures whatever it is she really cares about, letting go of the rest (for now) knowing she can't do and be everything all at once. She embraces her imperfections in favor of "good enough"—her imperfect self, her imperfect home, her imperfect mothering, her imperfect desires—and she never stops evolving as a woman and mother. She is a BoldHeart, authentic and true to herself.

The BoldHeartMama knows there is only this one life and she's all in. She is present and engaged and making things happen. Her intuition is her guide. She seeks to be inspired and relies on her creativity and her resourcefulness to solve the big and little challenges that she and her family face together as they navigate their relationships and their world.

The BoldHeartMama is willing to take calculated risks to make her biggest dreams come true. She is living out her BoldHeart in the moment, making small moves and taking little steps that add up, and she's cultivating a good life for herself and her family in the process. Read More!

Invitation to submit for the BoldHeartMama Storytelling Series, and a Gift Card Giveaway!


Summer bike adventures by the river

The BoldHeartMama Storytelling Series


Today I want to share more about The BoldHeartMama Storytelling Series, a dialogue of fun and inspiring interviews that translate the BoldHeartMama brand to the varied experiences of BoldHeartMamas everywhere.

The BoldHeartMama Storytelling Series is based on the BoldHeartMama Manifesto and offers a peek into the lives of mothers from all over, to highlight their unique BoldHeart stories from struggles to triumphs in work and mothering and life. 

I've always been interested in the ways that other mothers make decisions for themselves and their families about their work and home life. Equally curious is how these women live out their decisions to make their choices truly work for them, because there are so many ways to do it.

Mothering demands BoldHeartedness from all of us and I'm certain that you are living out your BoldHeart every day.

I want to help YOU share your story.


If you are curious to learn more about the series and how you can participate email me at BoldHeartMama@gmail.com and we can get started.

To enter please leave a comment below to share something you like about my new design or the BoldHeartMama Storytelling Series. Or any topic, really. I just love hearing from you!

    Well...as you know...I have a flair for the dramatic and you've witness my manic and depressive side. You've seen me through thick and thin. I'm prefacing with that because you've encouraged me in my own BoldHeart mama journey. You've help me see that I don't have to be perfect and I'm not a failure when I think I am or when the critic in me keeps pointing out my shortcomings. But I am better than that, truly. Through the past few years I've learned how important self care is. It can't be ignored! And to celebrate what works and let go of the rest and dig deeper and investigate because frankly I wouldn't grow otherwise. I thrive on new information and I'm curious and my utmost desire is to grow further in love with my family, my self and my invested community. I have random thoughts about the story telling series and I look forward to reading what your other friends write. P.S. if I happen to be selected for a gift card I'd like it to be something we can share use of in Fredericksburg. Like....books😍

    The new website looks great, really crisp and clean! I especially like the links on the left hand side that quickly show all the posts about popular categories. I tend to remember certain things about people's blogs and then want to locate them and it's nice to have those quick links. I also LOVE your color scheme! Good choices!

      Hi Jodi, thank you! I'm so glad you like the color scheme. A fun fact: I got draped for color analysis last Winter and that purple is one of my signature colors. :) I'm also glad that you find the quick links helpful!
