Meet Mom, Interrupted
Hi, I’m Mom, Interrupted, and welcome to my little corner of the internet—where reality checks come with a side of humor, and a lot of sarcasm (because if I didn’t laugh, I’d cry). I’m a mom of three amazing boys, ages 10, 13, and 19. Yep, you read that right—three boys, each with their own neurodiversity. I know, it’s like life said, “Why make it easy when you could make it interesting?” But here we are, surviving, thriving, and laughing through it all.
I’ve been through every stage of development with these guys. Trust me, I’ve studied it, and I’ve lived it. From tantrums to teenage drama to trying to figure out how to have a grown-up conversation with a 19-year-old who still thinks he knows everything (spoiler: he does not), I’ve been there. And let me tell you, if I can survive all of that, so can you.
While my background is in social work, family psychology, and early childhood development, I’ve learned that no amount of degrees can truly prepare you for the real deal. The moments that make you laugh so hard you cry or want to scream into a pillow. The times you feel like you’re failing at everything and the times when you finally get it right, even if just for a split second. But you know what? I’m here for it all. And I’m here to share it with you, because I’ve been through the trenches, and I’m not afraid to talk about it.
I like my coffee strong (because, let’s be honest, caffeine is my best friend) and my sarcasm stronger (because it’s the best defense when life throws a curveball). I mix a little dose of reality with humor to help us all get through the day. I get it. Motherhood can be a lot. And it can be messy. But it can also be incredibly beautiful and full of moments that make you proud to be exactly who you are.
This is the place where I hope we can connect. I share the highs, the lows, and the absolute chaos of parenting, and all the in-between moments that make us who we are. Because if you’ve ever Googled “How to survive your kid’s meltdown in public” or wondered why no one told you how hard this would be, you’re not alone. If I can get through it, so can you. We’re in this together, and together, we’ve got this.
My parenting approach
My parenting approach is a mix of realism, resilience, and humor—rooted in expertise but shaped by experience. As a mom of three neurodiverse boys, I embrace their unique strengths, adapt as needed, and balance structure with flexibility. Some days, I rely on practical strategies; other days, it’s just coffee and survival. My philosophy? Parent with love, lead with patience, and laugh whenever possible.
Marriage matters
Marriage comes with its challenges—communication struggles, shifting priorities, and the reality of balancing love and life. I write about the real, unfiltered side of marriage, from the hard conversations to the small moments that keep us connected. It’s not about perfection; it’s about growth, grace, and choosing each other daily—even when it’s tough. My philosophy? Marriage is work, but it’s work worth doing.
Life’s lessons
Life is messy, unpredictable, and full of lessons—some learned the hard way. I write about the real, unfiltered momentsthat shape us, from failures and setbacks to growth and resilience. It’s not about having all the answers; it’s about learning, adapting, and finding humor along the way. My philosophy? Every challenge teaches something—if we’re willing to listen.
Join the journey
because parenting, marriage, and life are a wild ride, and it’s always better with coffee, humor, and a little honesty along the way.
