Description
‘The Honest Mom’ Libby is the mom friend that everyone needs in their lives. She is the ‘tell it like it is’ friend who you can always count on to say the things everyone else is thinking in a way that makes you feel seen and understood but also encouraged. Through her candor and humor, she connects with her communities on social media and validates all the rollercoaster of emotions and struggles moms face every day. Encouraging moms to put themselves first, to lower their perfectionist standards and to rely on those around them to be supported are some of her main messages as a mom who influences others. It’s Libby’s hope that by talking about hard things moms can feel less shame, more connectedness, and a whole lot of “I guess I am not alone after-all” moments.
