Blogs

Welcome to The Thoughtful Mom blog!

I’m Kristan Shimpi, and I’m thrilled to have you here. Writing is my therapy—a way to navigate and understand the complexities of life. On this blog, I share my thoughts on a variety of topics, though I often focus on three main areas: navigating life as the parent of college-age children, embracing the adventures and challenges of middle age, and sharing the humorous antics of my beloved canine companions.

Whether you’re a fellow parent, a middle-aged soul searching for camaraderie, or simply a dog lover looking for a smile, I hope my stories resonate with you.
Thank you for joining me on this journey. Happy reading!
