Hi! I’m Ariel; mom of two, full-time writer, former teacher, and unofficial-but-obsessed student of Stoicism.

Before I started my Stoicism journey, I was at my breaking point (too much to do, too many messes, too many tantrums, too many bills, too many scary headlines… and too little left in me). Then, I read one line from the ancient Stoic Marcus Aurelius:

“You have power over your mind, not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”

That moment changed everything. Stoicism gave me tools to ditch rumination, stress, and guilt spirals.  And I didn’t have to change anything about my commitments, splurge on babysitters, or carve out time to paint my nails in a bubble bath. 

Overcoming my anxiety, frustration, and sadness taught me how to apply Stoicism – step by step – to every challenge a mom faces. Now my goal is to share that wisdom, so you can skip the breakdown (I’ve already taken one for the team) and head straight to the good life. 

Why Stoicism + Moms?

Because modern mom life is relentless and Stoicism provides a clear roadmap so you can:

• Respond calmly instead of snapping
• Let go of what you can’t control (spilled milk, anyone?)
• Stay present for your kids (and yourself)
• Find joy in the everyday
