“I am a mom of four now. When I was a first-time mom, I didn’t know what to do because my mom passed away when I was 18… I searched for everything online, but the information was scattered—websites, Pinterest, blogs… This is the tool I wish I had had when I first became a mom.” newmom.help

I’m running point on Netlify social today. Something cool is launching. If you want the play-by-play, follow along! 🛰️

A man turned a potential job lead into harassment. Then strangers blamed me for it. So I wrote it all down. This one’s for every woman who’s been told to stay quiet. I won’t. Read the full story here: exhotmess.net?p=271 #MeToo #LinkedIn #Harassment #Boundaries

I’ve been quietly working with Leapter as their content and messaging partner, and today, I finally get to share one of our first big public wins! Follow us! There's so much more to come. 🔥🐸

Just once, I’d like to experience “generational wealth” instead of “generational guilt.”

Burned out? Stuck? Tired of pretending to care about sh*t that doesn’t light you up? My chart says: Welcome to your Uranus opposition. Please lose your mind responsibly. I wrote about it. It’s raw, witchy, and might just hit where it hurts: exhotmess.net?p=256

I’m finally writing about my family’s estrangement. The gaslighting. The rewriting of history. The silence that hit harder than the yelling ever did. They called me “crazy” when I stopped performing. I call it waking up. exhotmess.net?p=252

We almost danced to Ed Sheeran. But then remembered: We’re the cat-in-the-sawdust type of couple. New blog post: On love, weird songs, & wanting every freckle... exhotmess.net?p=244 📸 Featuring: a very relevant cat.

I wrote a new blog post about what happens when the crisis ends, but your nervous system never got the memo. I keep scrolling, refreshing, trying to “stay ahead” But it’s not ambition. It’s survival mode. This is about anxiety after the anxiety: exhotmess.net?p=238

Not everyone’s gonna get it. You’re not too much. They’re just not your people.

Are we really going after the ellipses too now?

When you try using AI to make something cute for your wedding and it turns into an existential crisis wrapped in a coloring book. New post: exhotmess.net?p=204

A lot of people talk about playing small. But not enough people talk about why. Enmeshed families teach you that your choices don’t belong to you. That love = control. That shrinking keeps you safe. I wrote about the plane I never boarded—and the permission I thought I needed. exhotmess.net?p=193

Freelancing from a hospital room. Smiling through Zoom calls with 37 tabs open and a partner fighting to get well. I’m tired. I need steady work. I wrote about it. exhotmess.net?p=167

To the ones grinding on a Sunday…🥂

When your trauma makes you a better marketer but nobody wants to talk about that part.

Some days, it feels like you’re throwing effort into a black hole. No applause. No feedback. Just…crickets. And yet, you keep showing up. That’s the part no one claps for. That’s the part that builds everything. If today’s one of those “black hole” days, I see you. You’re not alone.

My partner is home. Crutches. 60 pounds down. I’m running on fumes and folding laundry between job apps—but we made it through the worst. If you’re someone who’s been rooting for us, thanks. If you feel like sending dinner vibes, I’m @exhotmess on Venmo. No pressure. Just deep, messy gratitude.

Burnout doesn’t always look like crashing. Sometimes it looks like obsessively tweaking a Canva graphic for two hours because you can’t face the next task. Ask me how I know. 🫠 #CreativeLife

If your content sounds like ChatGPT wrote it… Someone probably skimmed it, shrugged, and kept scrolling. Want engagement? Write like you talk. Want trust? Write like you mean it.

Hot take: We don’t need more tools. We need better instincts. Marketers obsess over AI, funnels & frameworks—and forget the human on the other side. Marketing = empathy, clarity, timing.

Some days I’m a brilliant strategist. Some days I’m a sad sandwich in yoga pants. Both versions still know how to grow a podcast and rank your content on page one. Balance. 🧘‍♀️💻 #MarketingLife

Check out some personal essays I’ve been writing on the side at Exhotmess.net!

I just published my first real blog post in 15 years. It’s about a wedding program, a Facebook troll, and what happens when you spend too long trying to be “professional enough” instead of honest. exhotmess.net/blog/what-th...

When you shrink yourself to be palatable for clients, platforms, or the algorithm…You don’t just lose your voice. You start forgetting what it ever sounded like. I stopped writing for years because I was afraid of being “too much.” Now? I’m risking being exactly that.
