Omaha

I am a Nebraska girl, born and raised.  I grew up in a small town in Western Nebraska and moved to Lincoln for college at the University of Nebraska, where I met my husband. After undergraduate school, we spent 6 years on the East Coast while I completed my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. After graduation, we were very excited to move back to Nebraska to settle down and start a family. We love Omaha! It has such a small town feel with the all the extras of a big city. My husband and I have experienced some family illness that has made us extremely passionate about improving our health through food/natural living. We love how Omaha is natural minded with several health food stores, natural grocery stores, farmers markets, and farm to table restaurants. There are lots of local farmers around Omaha who care about health and the natural way of raising animals and growing food. We love being able to show our girls how to shop local and support small business/farmers.

I am a mom to four beautiful girls, Natalie (8), Briana (6), Violet (4), and Isabella (2). I love being a mom to all girls; we have so much fun together! I also love having a big family, my husband and I both come from big families so having lots of kids was always a dream of ours. We homeschool our girls, so I am blessed to stay home each day and spend my time learning, growing, and exploring with them. It’s always loud, messy, silly, and full of excitement.  It can be hard navigating several very different personalities, especially when they all want something at the same time! Since we homeschool, it also can be hard to find time for myself and my husband, so I’m always trying new tricks and new ideas for self-care.

My husband and I have a local startup called Ringpatrol, I am looking forward to launching my personal blog (savethenaps.com). As a therapist and a mom, I love to talk! I am excited to be able to connect with other moms through Omaha Moms Blog.  I am hoping to inspire, encourage, and support all the sweet mamas in Omaha who are just trying to navigate this wild ride called life. I plan to mix my background in therapy and my experience as a mom to help give some tips on ways of improving your overall health, marriage, and finding your “joy”!
