So many of us were taught that motherhood meant self-sacrifice at all costs… that joy could wait, or that it was selfish to choose ourselves.
But Caroline reframed it so beautifully. Our happiness isn’t something we take away from our children. It’s something we model for them. ❤️
When our kids see us honoring our wholeness…
Pursuing fulfillment…
Laughing, growing, evolving…
They learn that life doesn’t end when you become a mom. It expands.
This is what Mom to More is all about.
Raising children while still raising yourself.
Choosing joy without guilt.
And stepping into the next chapter knowing your happiness matters too.

4th Dementia is NOW STREAMING on @omeleto
Click the link in our bio to watch! We are so excited to finally share this epic little film with all of you. We’d love if you shared your thoughts, questions, theories and hope it hits you in all the right feels.
“This free-wheeling dramedy is an absurd yet heartfelt story about home and family as an emotional compass, even when all else is confused or frightening. It uses the notion of time-traveling through multiverses as the springboard for a wildly inventive take on dementia and Alzheimer’s, but it never loses the emotional core of a woman trying to navigate a hazy sense of place and time as she searches for her beloved husband through it all.”
- Omeleto
Exciting news! 4th Dementia, a short film I made with Dinner for One, is now available to stream on Omeleto. It’s a film that approaches Alzheimer’s with humor, imagination, truth and empathy, and it meant a great deal to me to be part of telling this story. I hope it resonates with you! Check it out and enjoy. Link below: /watch?v=YhJhH4GOX7s&pp=ygUHT21lbGV0bw%3D%3D
