A New Direction

I've talked a lot about how Ladies of the Wild continues to grow and evolve as I find it's purpose.

The beauty in that is that I have evolved as well and found what I love, and that is to write.

I have looked up to so many of the big names in the hunting industry and aspired to be like them, but ultimately, they are them, and I am me.

I have a unique story to tell. I have a deep love for the outdoors, and my three crazy kids.

My life is dirty boots and diapers.
Pine trees and Paw Patrol.
Mountain Therapy and Speech Therapy.

I'm a Wild Mom, and I want to share the whole picture with you, not just the outdoor highlight reel.

Thank you all for the support and encouraging me to follow this path ❤

When Insecuritues Control You

Have you ever thought about the power you give to your insecurities? I remember one day a while back, I was getting dressed for the gym and I realized all of my leggings were still in the washing machine. My only option for the leg-day ahead was compression shorts. I died a little inside thinking about how people might judge the cellulite on my legs or think i was too big to be wearing shorts at all. Why couldn't I have been born during a time period where curves and rolls were attractive? But, then again, booty shorts wouldn't even be a thing in that day and age, and I surely would already be dead from small pox or stoned to death for one sin or another by now. I digress. I closed the drawer and decided I could just skip the gym that day. And then it hit me. I was so insecure about other peoples opinions of MY body, that I would rather stay home than risk someone thinking something negative about me. What kind of life is that? What kind of example was that setting for ...

Autism and Christmas

🎶 It's the most wonderful time of the year🎶 Or is it? Go talk to any family who has a child on the spectrum or who struggles with SPD (Sensory Processing Disorder), and they will tell you that this time of year is ROUGH! I think sometimes we get so caught up in the spirit of Christmas and the traditions, that we forget this time of year is stressful for some people.     Let's take a second and go back to the basics of ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) or SPD. These kids usually struggle with lights, sounds, noises, textures, and people.     That is literally what Christmas is!!     Put yourself in their shoes a second.     It's flashing lights, and mobs of loud people and music all crammed in one spot so you can go sit on some weird old dude's lap, whose wearing a suit that feels strange, and you're in clothes that aren't comfortable. He's asking you what you want and if you've been good -- and for young k...

Dealing With Hip Pain (Part 1)

Hands up if you deal with hip pain after having kids 🙋‍♀️ This one is for you. After kid 1 and 2, I really struggled with pain in my hips. Even when I was training 6 days a week (sometimes twice a day), the hip pain was there when I went hiking or snowshoeing. During my pregnancy with kid 3 I started struggling with Symphisis Pubis Dysfunction (SPD). To sum it up, I felt like my pelvis was going to snap in half. At the recommendation of friends who had been there, I sought out a physical therapist. Hannah Gray with Pelvic Health and Wellness gave me some really simple at-home exercises to strengthen my pelvic floor. I did different variations of 🍑 Glute Bridges 🍑Squats 🧜‍♀️ Slutty Mermaids (I think normal people call these clam shells, but whatever...) People. This was life changing! In May, I hiked a 14er and for the last mile I basically drug my leg and used my walking sticks as crutches. Just 5 months l...
