[On ‘Moms Can Do Hard Things’]. ” – Stephanie"Best new mom book ever! This is the real deal.

" - Woman of a Thousand Laughs"A superb guide to surviving and thriving in motherhood. This book resonates deeper with what motherhood actually looks and feels like than any other parenting book I have read (and when I was pregnant I read a lot!).

I was moved to tears at several points as the book deeply resonated with my own experience in a way I hadn’t heard motherhood described. " -Anne“We had our sweet girl last month! It has been a whirlwind for sure and I'm so glad I was more prepared from this book!!” - Mandy“I found myself nodding time and time again at how similar and difficult it was to learn many of the lessons in the book as a new mom, and time and time again as kids grow and change.

It helps the reader take heart, knowing they are not alone in the journey. ” – Kelli“As women, we don’t hear enough about the challenges motherhood brings.

Nobody really shares about their motherhood journey so candidly and honestly. As a result, when first-timers go through any of these challenges, they end up feeling isolated, guilty, and feel as if they’re doing something wrong because motherhood isn’t this perfect experience they’ve been told about.

I especially liked how the ups and downs where addressed in such a positive, solution-driven mentality. It made the whole motherhood topic a lot more approachable and less intimidating.

One thing that stuck with me is to address expectations across the board with your partner, from small chores all the way to the harder conversations like disciplining a child. ” – Eva“This was sooo well articulated and sooo useful.
