Welcome! I’m Steph, and I’m so glad you’re here. I write about motherhood at midlife, ADHD, feminism, women’s health, relationships, divorce, therapy, and yes, I am an unapologetic Swiftie.

I am a semi-apologetic navel-gazing nostalgia junkie—and speaking of, my debut novel, NOSTALGIA JUNKIE, is forthcoming by Third Rail Press this December! My work has been published in O Magazine, The Washington Post, Cosmopolitan.com, Brain, Child Magazine, Motherwell, The Huffington Post, Mutha Magazine, The Belladonna Comedy, the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, and other places. I am the Executive Producer of Listen To Your Mother Boulder, host of the Peri-Normal Podcast, and editor-in-chief of THREE, a new literary magazine. I created The Pause writing community to be a place where midlife women can find themselves, remember who they are, and most importantly, reconnect with their creativity, voices, and power. 

I am in my Reclamation Era, which is also the title of my Substack column: the intersection of midlife, single motherhood, and neurodivergence. Maybe you’re in yours, too. Whatever this stage of life looks like for you, you are welcome here—make yourself at home! 

XO,
Steph
