Welcome! My name is Melissa Wilson. I am a west coast girl moved east to North Carolina, where I practice critical care nursing by day and blogging by night. I married my college sweetheart in 2017 and we have been together for 10 years. I am blessed with a big family of three older sisters, three brother-in-laws, one sister-in-law and four (going on five) adorable nieces and nephews. I created this blog as a way to help real women live a more balanced life. There is so much pressure in the world these days for women to be perfect: the perfect wife, cook, employee, daughter, sister, friend...everything...that I wanted to create a safe place for REAL women (ain't nobody perfect here!) to come and know they aren't alone. I hear you, I feel you and I hope to help make it a little bit easier on you.

I think we all just want to be better versions of ourselves while not feeling like we are drowning in the noise. Here, you don't need more to live a good and full balanced life, you just need to have a good sense of humor and want to be a good human. The rest will fall into place. I hope you enjoy my little corner of the web, so go grab a cup of coffee, and make yourself at home. Welcome to the #TCDtribe!

xxoo,

Melissa
