    We’d love to hear from you!

    In this episode of Diary of a Reluctant Mother, I sit down with Vanessa Lebaron for a powerful and honest conversation about partnering with her husband as business owners and navigating the many interests they pursue together as a team. Vanessa is a mother of three, with two aspiring professional athletes, and her insight into family, ambition, and balance is both refreshing and real.


    This conversation will capture your attention. Vanessa brings a rare combination of strength, humility, and authenticity that immediately draws you in. She is a true powerhouse, yet so approachable and grounded. I’ll be honest, I felt a bit intimidated, but even more inspired by her confidence, wisdom, and transparency. I walked away energized, and I know you will too.


    This is an episode every woman who is thinking of partnering with her husband, needs to hear. Tune in, you won’t want to miss what Vanessa has to share.

    Join me and my dear friend, Jessica Johnson, in this episode as she shares her practical tips and gentle strategies for maintaining a tidy home—while also teaching her children to do the same without disrupting the peace.

    Jessica offers valuable insight into the power of positive affirmations in parenting and highlights the importance of being mindful and intentional in the way we care for our living spaces. What I love most about Jessica is her gentle spirit, kind demeanor, and deep love for her family.

    We’d love to hear from you!

    Join me and my guest, Tani Mata, as we discuss simple, practical ways to improve what we feed our children in a time when more attention is being brought to the harmful chemicals hidden in processed foods. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed and even hopeless, but the best way forward is through small, intentional steps in the right direction.


    I love Tani’s approach to motherhood and cooking—whenever she speaks, I lean in. Her wisdom and dedication to feeding her children well without spending hours in the kitchen are truly inspiring. In this episode, she shares easy tips and tricks that make a big impact on her children’s nutrition while keeping mealtime stress-free.


    (Note: This episode was recorded remotely, and I later realized the sound quality was actually better without Tani’s headphones. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!)
