It’s not about being the BEST parent ever and creating perfect holiday memories, but about showing up for our kids the best way we know how.
Hey there! I’m Mikala—a family doctor, wife, mother of 5, well-being advocate, and author of the books Ordinary on Purpose and Everything I Wish I Could Tell You About Midlife. Each month my writing reaches millions of women, but I am thrilled to be connecting with YOU. I’m truly grateful to have you here!

It’s not about being the BEST parent ever and creating perfect holiday memories, but about showing up for our kids the best way we know how.
I’m going to declare a job well done (even if a few things are left undone). And I’m going to prepare my heart for the coming of a Savior.
Every year, my kids come home for break with excitement shining in their eyes as they put clumsily wrapped packages under the tree labeled TO: Mom.
Moms, we don’t have to do it all every year. We can pick one or two things. Then just be present. And soak it in. Turns out, Christmas is CUMULATIVE!!
