We’re halfway through 2025, and I don’t know about you, but this year didn’t unfold quite the way I imagined it would.

Moms, in all their realness, rawness, and yes, messiness, are finally stepping into the spotlight. Not the Pinterest-perfect, color-coded motherhood. The kind where the dishes aren’t done, the laundry is multiplying like rabbits, and the toddler just drew on the wall while you were on a call.

What started as a personal rebellion against burnout turned into a full transformation. Motherhood was never supposed to feel like martyrdom. And the more I unlearned, the more I realized…I wasn’t lazy. I was tired. I was overwhelmed. I was doing too many of the wrong things. The Lazy Mom’s Guide is my way of helping other moms break free, too, from shame, from perfectionism, and from that toxic idea that “rest equals failure.”

Today is Father’s Day, and I want to take a moment to honor all the men who are showing up for their children—even when it’s hard, even when they didn’t have a blueprint, even when they’re learning as they go.

You are the default. The planner. The "rememberer". The one who anticipates, organizes, soothes, nurtures, schedules, and sacrifices. And when you’re the one holding everything together, it can start to feel like asking for help is just one more thing to manage.

Every “yes” you give out of guilt is a “no” to your peace. Every commitment you make under pressure is a withdrawal from your energy. Every time you say yes when your spirit is screaming no, that’s not kindness. That’s self-abandonment.

I’m not the most domestic person. Yes, I love home decor — give me a good throw pillow or a new way to style a bookshelf and I’m in my zone. But cooking, cleaning, doing laundry?

When we step back, we’re not disappearing — we’re making room for our kids to step up. Whether it’s letting your toddler sweep with a mini broom, your 8-year-old pack their lunch, or your teen figure out how to manage their time — that space is a gift.

The mom who has it all together —organized home, packed lunches, neatly dressed kids, thriving career, perfect Instagram grid, and somehow still finds time to bake banana bread and train for a marathon.

Somewhere along the way, the joy of being a mom gets buried under the endless "shoulds."

Ten years ago, I took a job that made perfect sense for my life at the time.
