Hey girl, I'm Jaz

I'm a tired Mum of two, a wife, a small business owner and SAHM. I'm also an awkward, sometimes oversharer who started my secret TikTok and Instagram account 'My Motherhood Confessions' to say all the things I felt I couldn't say out loud.

Welcome to our little corner of the internet where being a Mum isn't sunshine and rainbows and it isn't doom and gloom either - it's some weird place in between.
