The Journey Begins…

The reality of this blog is that I’m terrified to post it. I’ve never shared my writing publicly and the vulnerability of publishing something for even a small audience to read has always been a bit too much for this girl.

But, for me, this is the year of taking chances and trying new things, so here it goes.

Becoming MAS…

This journey was birthed out of a simple desire to get more out of and put more into life. More love, excitement, connection, joy.

Minus work, I have never really had a true hobby. At the same time, I have always been a gal with just a few close female friends. In social settings I almost always gravitate towards the guys. This becomes a positive thing later in life where I am able to build healthy relationships all around. But as a teenager, a lack of hobbies and patience for the traditional “girl stuff”, I found myself a bit boy crazed. It wasn’t until college when I became a feminist hippie that I was able to let go of a lot of unhealthy patterns.

Now, as a mom of 3 GIRLS and having the perspective of a slightly older and much more confident version of myself, I want to dig in and learn, grow, and challenge myself both for my own personal benefit and as an example to my girls. 

Imagining MAS

One sleepless night on the couch in late 2018, I lay awake thinking about this concept of MORE. It had been following me for a while and when I paused to think about it, the concept was simple. I just wanted to do more awesome shit! (sorry for my language mom) I wanted to have fun and grow. I wanted to take risks and explore my list of somedays AND I wanted to do these things with women I respect.

After sharing the idea to a few of my friends and getting enthusiastic support and laughing about the ways we could bring MAS to life, MAS was set in motion. Suddenly it looked like 2019 would become the year of MAS and it would be amazing.

Here’s to a year of building community and discovering MAS!
