It’s a question many moms quietly ask themselves — can I be both?
Can I be a loving, devoted mom and still pursue the dreams that light me up inside?
Recently, I came across a comment online that made me pause. A mom had shared how tired she was after a long day and how ready she was to hand things over to her husband when he walked through the door. Someone replied, “Respectfully, why did you have children if you didn’t want to stay home with them all day?” Wow. RUDE.
The Comment That Started It All
That one comment reminded me of the pressure so many mothers face — to do it all, perfectly, and to always be “on.”
But the truth is, motherhood looks different for everyone. Some women find fulfillment staying home full time. Others, like me, feel equally passionate about both family and career.
You don’t have to choose. You can love your children deeply and love the work that brings you purpose. And there is space for both within God’s plan for family.
You Can Be Passionate About Both — Family and Career
I’m passionate about my family and my business.
And if that’s you too, I want you to know that you’re not alone.
Some days, your energy will lean toward work. Other days, it’ll be all about family. The balance shifts, and both parts of your life matter.
Yes, sacrifices are inevitable. You’ll miss moments sometimes. You’ll make trade-offs. But you can be a present mom and a driven professional. That’s not conflict, it’s balance.

Client Testimonial — Your Voice, Your Story
“Ashley was AMAZING. She was very easy to work with, communicative, available, and honest. Working with her, it was apparent how she genuinely cared about our family’s wants and needs, and also strived to be fair and understanding to all other parties we worked with. Buying and selling a home can be a frustrating and confusing time, but having Ashley on our side made us feel seen, understood, and supported. She is very knowledgeable in her field, and you can tell by her reputation that she treats all clients and third parties the exact same way with respect and integrity. We cannot recommend her enough.”
