Hi.

I’m Janna, a full-time physical therapist and toddler boy mom. Between having a career, working full-time outside the home, being a mom and a wife, and trying to find time for my own self-care, things can feel pretty overwhelming. I constantly struggle with finding balance between all of life’s demands. This blog shares the everyday experiences and challenges of being a working mom with a toddler who’s just trying to stay on top of it all. It’s not fancy or glamorous, just the everyday tips, tricks, and hacks that help me thrive as a working mom.
