About Working on Purpose

This is not an advice blog. I won’t even pretend to be an expert on anything. All I hope is that my thoughts or stories help stir an awakening in anyone working on letting go of perfectionism and anxiety and working on being the best woman or mom they can be. For all women working on yourself so that you can be a better friend, sibling, daughter, wife, spouse, mother, working-mother, coworker, or whatever it is that helps make you feel more whole - let go, and find your YOU.
