Hello Friend!

I'm a Mum to 4 boys and while I LOVE being 'Mama Bear,' I'm not going to lie and pretend that it's always sunshine, lollipops and rainbows. The journey of motherhood definitely has its ups and downs. For me, this included some moments of dark depression where it was all I could do to put on a happy face and try to keep it together before hiding away in my closet and crying. I am passionate about helping other Mama Bears who might be in this dark place. I want them to know that they have a friend in me and that they will never be alone. 

These Mama Bears don't need self-help books, or lists, or journals, or ideas of things to do with their kids. They just need a friend. They need someone to laugh with them at their ridiculous 'motherhood fail' moments, to cry with them when they've lost hope, and to gently remind them of their awesomeness and lift them up when they're too tired to cope. 

These Mama Bears need to be tucked into bed. These Mama Bears need a bedtime story. 

Dear Mama Bear With the F*cked Up Hair is the real, authentic, dark, sometimes funny, poignant and moving story of motherhood. 

I'm thrilled to be working with Sarah Lovall (https://www.sarahlovell.art/) - a sneak peek at the storyboard sketches are below. The book will be released towards the end of the year, stay tuned for more information!
