Retrofit: The Playbook for Modern Mom
Little Book, Big Idea.
In six clear chapters, we tackle the biggest topics facing working moms today:
we need to hear our own voice
we deserve to know how it got to this point
we have to admit work is harder than ever
we have never been held to such a high standard as parents
we don't get enough help from partners
we have to chart our way forward, for ourselves and our daughters
Full of data, stories and hands-on, write-that-shit-down worksheets and quizzes, this little book packs a big punch as it invites moms to figure out how to survive and thrive in their work-life-chaos.
Why Retrofit?
This book is about the strange time warp in which working mothers now find themselves--faced with modern expectations of how they should function as moms and workers, but surrounded by outdated systems of non-support that assume a moms' primary role is at home with her kids.
And with working moms themselves caught in the middle, it's time we provide each other some better options. So, Retrofit is my invitation for today's moms to start exploring what it's like to live in this outdated world, and tell their own stories.
Only then can we make things better for the moms of the future.

According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, 4.4 million workers left their jobs in September 2021 and the trend ins’t likely slowing especially as COVID-19 cases continue to hit pandemic daily records and workers face ongoing stress.
But what if there was a way to give your loyal workers a break—rather than lose them completely? Admittedly, I didn’t know much about my FMLA options when I considered leaving my last job and I don’t think I am not alone.
