Many of you may know, I am now a mom. I had twins in 2023. I was changed forever; however, still me. My identity expanded enough to hold all of these things: caregiver, founder, daughter, wife, mother, Margaux and Phillip. Yes, the area of my brain associated with self-identity changed to include my two children.
