Hi! I’m Sarah,
Friend to Frazzled Working Parents and to Too-Busy Folks Everywhere.
Hi, I'm Sarah, a formerly frantic & frazzled working parent who wants us all to have a little more fun in life. Welcome to my blog and ecommerce space, where I create and curate items to help working parents get organized, stay inspired, and celebrate what they love.
​
There's a common saying - origin unknown - "stop and smell the roses." When was the last time you actually did that?
​
After more than 20 years balancing family life with a career in corporate America, I know how easy it is to get caught up in the daily grind of responsibilities. When my children were little, I remember many a day that I was convinced that fun was a luxury I would not have time for anytime in the near future.
​
When you are in a caregiving role and working full time, each day can be overwhelming and exhausting. Months can go by without a single whiff of a single rose. I can't relieve your responsibilities or put more hours in the day, but what I can do is share what has helped me find balance and joy in the midst of my own seemingly unending chaos.
​
Through my blog, I share lessons learned from adversity and my strategies for staying organized, managing time effectively, and finding inspiration in everyday moments. I also write about celebration, and I mean that quite broadly! I am fascinated by the vast diversity of human approaches to fun.
​
In my ecommerce space, you'll find a carefully curated selection of products that are designed to make life a little easier, so that ultimately YOU can have more fun. I started by sharing the planners & checklists, wallpaper, posters, and greeting cards that have made my own life a bit less stressful in recent times.
​
Thank you for stopping by! Whether you're a new parent trying to navigate the challenges of balancing work and family or a seasoned pro looking for fresh ideas, I invite you to explore my blog and ecommerce space. Together, we can create a community of support, inspiration, and celebration for all working parents.
