Hi, I’m Jessica. Thanks for being here!
I am a working mom and wife. My family and I live in Portland, OR.
I’m a software engineer working to figure out where I want my career to go in tech. I am constantly working on my health and fitness to reach my goals. And every day I wonder how I can retire early. I love to bake, watch crappy reality tv, get pedicures, go out with friends, read, travel. I’m usually in bed by 9pm.
I am trying to figure out how to have more time for those things. I’m trying to discover my own definition of balance for all of the facets of my life.
Instead of trying to “have it all”, I’m trying to love all I have in a way that works for me and my family. I’m learning to embrace our chaos between chasing my 3-year-old, meetings, family events, and grocery shopping.
I decided to start this blog to record my journey to define what balance looks like for me and to connect with other people that are in similar journeys.
Thank you so much for being here!
