Our Story

Last year, through my current job, I had the opportunity to participate in an incredible program at the Experience Institute in Chicago. It’s an after work program set over the course of 6-8 weeks that gives you the inspiration, tools, structure … and confidence to pursue and tease out a personal goal or idea you may have. When I started I knew I wanted to turn my family building pain into some sort of purpose. When I ended the program, I had the foundation set for a blog. This culminated with a storytelling evening where I was able to share a little about our journey to start our family and why I am doing this. I can’t even being to tell you how vulnerable I felt … and I am still shocked I wasn’t crying on the floor like a baby. :) I am proud of myself for doing this program, presenting to a room full of people a very personal story … and continuing over the last year to build and evolve my blog. If you have time, please take a listen to learn more about why I am doing this.
