Welcome to the MODERN MOM HANDBOOK a curated collection of the very best TIPS & TOOLS to live life to the fullest with the ones we love.
The mission of the MODERN MOM HANDBOOK is to curate a single site to collect the mind-blowing inspiration, strategies, lessons, teachings, and tools that exist today (often for free!) on the internet, in podcasts, in books, and loads of other scoured sources. It’s all here – and it’s all good.
Why today? Let’s see – iphones – emails – texts – internet – cable TV – social media – Netflix – computers – laptops – apps – podcasts – kindles – 24 hour news – google calendar. Basically, none of these things existed twenty years go. Did not exist! And yet these, and so many other revolutionary aspects of modern life, are now deeply embedded into our every day.
The hope for the MODERN MOM HANDBOOK is to be a kind of North Star, or compass, to try and make sense of what can feel like chaos and overwhelm in today’s world, and provide a navigational chart for your unique path to LOVE HOW YOU LIVE.
In the six categories on the site: TIME & TO DO, FAMILY, HOME, WORK, SELF, and BOOKSHELF, the content is broken down into the WHAT, WHY, and HOW to steer your ship.
Where to start? There’s no “right” place to start on the site. We are each on our own individual journeys – navigating our own particular challenges and blessings. See what feels like the right content for you in the moment, and take it from there. Disclosure: there is lots of overlap between the various categories, which is a true reflection of life itself. So positivity and progress in one category usually spills over into the others automatically.
And there’s only one rule at the MODERN MOM HANDBOOK: kick perfection and overwhelm to the curb, and never underestimate the transformative change baby steps can bring!
Please know that each and every item in every nook and cranny of the MODERN MOM HANDBOOK has been, for me, a tremendous source of motivation, revelation, and inspiration. Along with wisdom and know-how culled from today’s superstar gurus and thought leaders, I have also included a few of my own MMH TIPS. These are merely suggestions – as there is never a one-size-fits-all solution – but by sharing what works for me, maybe there is something here that speaks to you?
I hope you enjoy this collective of TIPS & TOOLS from the infinitely deep well of inspiration and encouragement that exists in this modern world.
