about me

Hey, I’m Karissa!

I’m a mom in her late twenties and lifestyle blogger living in Austin, Tx, where the breakfast tacos are unbeatable and life is full of surprises. I started this blog as a way to reconnect with myself outside of being a mom. While motherhood is the most rewarding role, I know how easy it is to lose yourself in the day-to-day.

This space was created for millennial and Gen Z women navigating all the beautiful, messy, and sometimes overwhelming seasons of life. Here, you’ll find everything from honest takes on mom life and mental health to practical gift guides and lifestyle inspiration. My goal is to make this a space where you feel seen understood, and supported—like you’re catching up with your best friend.

When I’m not writing or having fun with my mini-bestie, I’m probably curled up in sweats and a oversized hoodie watching my favorite shows, trying new recipes, or actively avoiding flying insects (seriously, I can’t do bugs).

Thanks for stopping by! Whether you’re looking for relatable stories, practical tips, or just a place where you can feel a little less alone, I hope you’ll find it here.

.

with love, Karissa
