how did we get here?
Hello. Let me take a minute to introduce myself. My name is Theresa Ahrens. I’m 36-years-old, live in Colorado, am the mother to the coolest six-year-old son, work in communications for a local area hospital, and for years have been toying with the idea of starting this blog.
Why you might ask?
Like most everyone, I have experienced various highs and lows in life – some that have taken me really low and some that have changed the course of everything I thought I knew. One thing I’ve learned through it all though, is that it’s really scary to feel like you’re alone in the journey. Everyone’s journey is obviously different, but with the world feeling like it’s going to hell in a handbasket daily, I thought, why not start putting it out there to see if there is even one other person who might feel a little less alone by reading my experience.
What this blog is
A place to share one woman’s honest, unfiltered experience with infertility, adoption, divorce, motherhood, career aspirations, co-parenting, love, and living – with the hope of connecting with other women and individuals trying to do this life thing.
What this blog is not
I am not a medical professional, psychologist, social worker, etc. so I will not be giving professional advice. The information I share is strictly from my own experience and opinions. Take it or leave it.
While there are many different topics I plan to touch on, as you get to know me, if ever there is something you want to know more about, please feel free to ask.
My life and approach to all of this is to be and share just as the name of this blog suggests – through imperfect honesty. I definitely don’t do everything right, let alone perfectly, but what I can promise, is that I’ll be open and honest about it all.
So, if you’re interested in tagging along on this crazy adventure, feel free to subscribe to this free blog today, and together we can pretend we know what the hell we’re doing.
Honestly,
Theresa
