About The Mom Struggle
Our Family
Hi! I'm Ashley, and I've been happily married to my husband for nearly 19 wonderful years. We're a family of six with four awesome kids! We absolutely love spending time outdoors, exploring new places through travel, and just enjoying each other's company. Life definitely has its challenges, but we believe that the journey together is absolutely worth it!
Why Start, "The Mom Struggle"?
One day while I was trying to clean the kitchen (or try to!), do laundry, work on the computer and keep four kids alive, it occurred to me that the content we normally see on the internet does not always show how real life is. I see pictures of clean, happy kids and meticulous houses, and then feel miserable because my house is in shambles and my kids are running around looking like they are being raised by wolves. The feeling of failing plagues me everyday, and I know I am not the only one! I wanted to create a space that is safe, helpful and builds a sense of community for other moms living the struggle.
How "Can The Mom Struggle" help ?
I'm definitely not a professional or anything, but as a mom of four who also fostered kiddos for a decade and has spent over 25 years working with chMildren, I've picked up quite a few things along the way! I've always loved connecting with other moms and offering a bit of advice or a helping hand whenever those parenting challenges pop up. Being a mom can be lonely and isolating, and I love connecting with others to help combat the loneliness and become better moms!om
