About

hi

I’m Carolyn. I have three boys, two dogs, one law degree, anxiety, depression, and a passion for the written word. My husband is my rock. My blog is my outlet.

I’ve been a writer my whole life. As late talker and an introvert, writing has always been my favorite form of expression.

I love creating something that wasn’t there before. My blog will share my own poetry, book reviews, and thoughts about living and parenting in a world full of stigmas – stigmas against mental illness, addiction, screen time, etc. Just thinking of the kinds of stigmas we face on a daily basis is enough to make your head spin. I hope to face those stigmas head-on; instead of feeling like I have to hide certain aspects of my life, I hope to try to understand why those stigmas exist and throw society’s standards to the curb.

I am not an expert, I am someone trying to embrace life by leaving shame and guilt behind.
