I’m so glad you’re here. Social media is fun, but there’s something special about knowing someone took the time to read the blog. It feels a little like opening up my personal journal—equal parts exciting and vulnerable.
This is where I get real about work, life as a mom, and the ongoing attempt to balance the two. Motherhood has this way of tugging you in opposite directions. As Ellen Pompeo said, “You can’t be 100% at both—your heart is in two different places.” That line hits home for me.
You really can do it all—but not all at once, and not always perfectly. And that’s okay.
If that resonates, welcome. I’m so glad you’re here.
Hey, i'm megan.
For the past two years, I’ve been working from home with a toddler by my side. My first year was spent in a fast-paced startup—until a layoff completely shifted the course of my career and, honestly, my family’s life for the better.
Like many of us, I grew up with the “girl boss” mindset, chasing titles, lists, and milestones. And to the women balancing that drive with motherhood—major respect. But my own path changed when I realized that the layoff gave me permission to slow down, reframe success, and embrace consulting.
Now, I focus on balance: doing the same level of high-quality work, but on terms that support my family, my energy, and the season of life I’m in. Plus it gives me that taste of stay at home mom life, while still allowing me to consult and pick projects I love.
Why I've Become Obsessed With Balance.
