Two kids. Two milestones. One day that broke me wide open. 🎓🎓

My 8th grader is heading to high school, and my girl just closed that chapter for good. I couldn’t be more proud of who they’re becoming.

Days like this are such a loud reminder that motherhood is a million ordinary moments that somehow become the memories you ache for later. The rushed mornings, the carpool chaos, the late-night homework tears… it all mattered.

If there’s a lesson in today, it’s this: don’t wait for the big milestones to realize you’re living the good stuff right now.

If you need me, I’ll be ugly crying in the pantry. #keepingitreal

I walked into @headlinesthesalon in full blown “running late, mildly spiraling, questioning all my life choices” mode before a packed day of interviews… and somehow walked out looking like I had my life completely together. Which is honestly the kind of magic I can get behind. ✨

This is why I love Headlines in Encinitas. Before they even touch your hair, they actually talk through exactly what you want and personalize everything so you leave feeling like the best version of you.

And because they knew I was in a full on hurry, they basically launched an emergency glam response team and had two girls blow drying my hair at the same time to get me out the door faster. If that’s not VIP treatment, I don’t know what is.

Add in the heavenly 10 minute scalp massage, the heated towels, all the little details that make you instantly relax… and somehow they managed to make being in a rush feel luxurious.

I came in looking like my schedule had personally attacked me and left feeling polished, confident, and interview ready.

Headlines understood the assignment. ✨

I don’t want the mom friends who pretend they’ve got it all figured out.💃😭
I want the ones texting me at 1am like, “The kids are feral. I’m booking Mexico. You in?”🇲🇽

Comment “Mexico City” and I’ll send you our 3-day itinerary 🇲🇽✨

Mexico City has been on my dream list for years… one of those places I just knew would capture my heart.

And somehow, it was even more than I imagined.

There was something so special about immersing ourselves in the culture, the warmth of the people, the layers of history woven into every street, and the kind of energy you can feel the moment you arrive. From the architecture and the food to the stories this city holds, every moment felt like stepping into something unforgettable.

I knew I would love it, but experiencing it firsthand was a dream come true in every sense.

This trip reminded me how beautiful it is to step into a place so rich with life, history, and soul… and leave feeling changed by it.

If Mexico City is on your list, trust me… go. And comment Mexico City if you want the exact 3-day itinerary we followed 🤍

If you’ve ever wondered if a purchase can actually make a difference… this is it. ♥️

@ubuntu.life life is proof that fashion can be beautiful AND life-changing. What started with helping special needs and marginalized children in Kenya grew into empowered employment for 150 incredible Maker Mums creating these handcrafted bags and LOVE bracelets by hand.

And the best part? Every LOVE bracelet purchased gives back directly to the foundation supporting these children and families.

This is the kind of brand I’m proud to align my family with.
Purpose. Impact. Community.
LOVE BIG. ♥️

Use my code CITYGIRL20 to support this incredible mission — and they are having a fabulous Memorial Day sale this weekend.

Tag someone who would absolutely LOVE this mission and these pieces 👇 https://www.ubuntu.life

As graduation season approaches, this is your reminder that being the “cool parent” might not mean what you think it means.

Research shows teens who drink with parental permission are more likely to engage in risky drinking later in life … and the earlier kids start drinking, the higher the risk for alcohol use disorder later on.
The good news? Most teens actually DON’T drink.

As parents, our words, boundaries, and example matter more than we realize. Keep the conversations going. Keep listening. Keep modeling responsibility.
Because responsibility starts here … with us, at home. 🤍 Never serve anyone under the legal drinking age. It’s unsafe, illegal, and irresponsible.

COMMENT “SUMMER” if you want the link to the cutest under-$50 white dress I’ve bought all season ☀️🤍

Because why did I put this dress on for one little reel… and suddenly I’m twirling around like the lead actress in a summer romance movie? 😭💃

It’s lightweight, flattering, effortless, and somehow makes it look like I have my life together for 12 full seconds 😂

And the fact that it’s under $50?? Immediate emotional support dress.

Comment SUMMER and I’ll send you the link before it disappears 🤍
