I need to color my hair, not just glossy, with a hint of summer highlights, lowlights, or ombré, but cover up some grays. Ug.

I’m sharing this distressing news with you because I don’t have time to fit it in before my next trip next weekend, which means I’m either going to have to do it myself (likely) or carve out 3–4 hours and hope that it aligns with my stylist’s availability (unlikely).

Being too busy for a hair appointment isn’t a function of a high-powered career or chaotic life; it’s the season of parenting we’re in.

Have you ever thought I’m too busy to be sick, too busy to pee or sleep? We think we know busy and tired before kids, but most of us have no idea.

Crafting a Plan in Advance

A fair division of labor at home is crucial for working parents, but it feels far away when you don’t honestly know how becoming a mom will impact your life.
