I’m thrilled you’re here. Below, you’ll learn a little more about me and what you can expect when you subscribe to my Substack.

A Bit About Me

I’m the bestselling author of a bunch of books and the founder of Simplified: an award-winning brand of planners and products for busy women. I’m the proud mom of three kids: Brady (12), and twins - Tyler and Caroline (8). I love what I do and strive to marry my work and home life in meaningful ways.

Details About My Substack

I love sharing my thoughts and musings with the world over on Instagram, but as social media has changed over the years I’ve found it harder and harder to squeeze all my thoughts into small captions. My goal is for this newsletter to be part reflection on life, part tips (and fun product finds) on simplicity I’ve found helpful in my own world, and part lessons learned in the entrepreneurial space. I’ll also be sharing a little behind the scenes of Simplified. It’s a mixed bag, but each newsletter will feel like a cup of coffee with an old friend. I’m grateful for your support that allows me to do this work!

Here’s What You’ll Get as a Paid Subscriber:

  • My weekly posts, where I explore boundaries, creativity, habits, routines, motherhood, entrepreneurship, life as a woman in today’s world, simplicity, stuff that really matters, and more.

  • My weekly Sunday Scroll with recommendations for articles, podcasts, posts, and more to help start your week on a positive, thoughtful note.

  • Our weekly subscriber-only “Group Text” thread where we discuss ideas and share tips.

  • Access to the entirety of my writing here on Substack.

  • Opportunities for Ask Em Q&As that I’ll publish here.
