Welcome to my corner of the internet! I’m a wife, mom, teacher, and writer on a mission to inspire, empower, and encourage women from all walks of life.
As a mom to two girls and a boy ranging from 23 to 10 years old, I understand the juggling act of parenthood all too well. From being a soccer mom to a basketball mom to a dance mom, my days are filled with laughter, love, and the occasional chaos that comes with raising a blended family.
Â
In my professional life, I’ve been a teacher and reading interventionist for almost 20 years. I’m passionate about education and helping children unlock their full potential through literacy.
My life hasn’t been without its twists and turns. From navigating the complexities of marriage, divorce, and remarriage to embracing the joys and challenges of blended family life, I’ve learned that resilience is the key to overcoming life’s obstacles.
I’m also a firm believer in the power of authenticity and vulnerability. Despite the struggles and setbacks I’ve faced, I’ve learned to embrace my story – failures and all. I’ve transformed my challenges into opportunities for growth and self-discovery.
Like many of us, I’ve experienced moments of self-doubt and insecurity. But through it all, I’ve emerged as a strong, confident woman who thrives on chaos and embraces life’s messy, beautiful journey.
Join me as I share my insights, experiences, and reflections on life, love, motherhood, and everything in between. Together, let’s navigate the ups and downs of life with authenticity, patience, and passion. After all, it’s our imperfections that make us perfectly human.
I strive to be authentic, patient, passionate, sincere, candid, and relatable in everything I do. My goal is to inspire, empower, and encourage you to embrace your uniqueness and take on the world, even if you’re still a little bit of a trainwreck who thrives on chaos.
Welcome to Lovely Haze, where we believe in empowering people to live their best lives and supporting each other. Life can be a beautiful haze of stress, chaos, beauty, and love – and we’re here to embrace it all.

Perhaps you could turn the idea of dysfunction round. Perhaps you could see it as a spur to understand things at a deeper level. Not that your tricky experiences have been helpful, but that having survived them you are interested in seeing things in the round – round corners so to speak. Good luck and lovely layout. Helen

Hugs and wishes of good life for you. After having encountered so many of life’s mess, I realized I would never have them if I don’t need them. The chaos turn out to be one of life’s greatest blessings to me 🙂

What a refreshing concept… I think everyone should encourage others to be the best person they can be. Women especially should encourage other women and lift each other up instead of tearing each other down! Thank you for sharing!
