About The Weekly Wench
You get to be a mother and a whole woman.
The Weekly Wench is where we explore mothering practices that make room for your whole life: your children, your money, your relationships, your pleasure, your rest, and the woman you are becoming.
Over the years, we experimented as we found our way. Those earlier posts remain here as part of our history. This new chapter returns to something at the heart of Infamous Mothers: women deserve to see themselves in the stories and in the strategies offered to them.
Meet the women of the IMverse, our fictional universe. These composite characters bring comic-book realism to the lives of mothers who are too often judged or overlooked. You will see their gifts and their limits, their families and desires, and their need to be loved, supported, and cared for.
Then, Your Session Begins. I turn from her story to your life, with practical coaching that starts with your actual responsibilities, the money you need to make, and the support you can use. We return to her as she puts the lesson into practice. No perfect ending required.
Our themed series, including Pleasure & Power, give us room to keep exploring. Come for the story. Stay for the question, the strategy, and a practice you can try. You do not have to buy anything to begin.
Every piece of you belongs.
