Hey Mama!

Welcome to According to Bethany! I’m Bethany—your coffee-drinking, messy bun-wearing, “figuring-it-out-as-I-go” mom friend.

Motherhood is beautiful, chaotic, and sometimes downright overwhelming. I’ve been there, sh*t somedays, I feel like I’m still there. The burnout, the mom guilt, the lonely moments, and the struggle to find me again amidst the diapers, dinners, and daily to-dos. Here at According to Bethany, I’m all about embracing the real stuff—the crumbs on the floor, the midnight snacks, and the little wins that keep us going.

I created this blog to be y[our] place for real-life motherhood, where balance isn’t perfect, but we make it work.

Together, we’ll explore simple self-care strategies, gentle parenting tips, healthy living (that doesn’t feel impossible), and finding your way back to you. Whether you’re looking for practical tools, a little inspiration, or just someone who “gets it,” you’re in the right place.

You’ve got this, mama—even on the hard days. And when you don’t feel like you do, I’ll be right here, cheering you on!
