About

Hi, I’m Alison.

I’m a writer, mom, and chronic overthinker based in Arlington, Virginia.

A few years ago, I found myself navigating secondary infertility, multiple unsuccessful IVF cycles, and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with trying to build the family you imagined. Along the way, I discovered that some of the hardest parts of motherhood and infertility are the things people don’t always talk about.

So I started writing.

Momxiety is where I share honest essays about motherhood, infertility, anxiety, marriage, parenting, and all the things that keep me awake at night wondering if everyone else has it figured out.

My writing has been described as honest, relatable, and occasionally funny—usually because if I don’t laugh, I’ll cry.

When I’m not writing, you’ll find me spending time with my husband, daughter, dog, and cats, scrolling Instagram longer than I should, drinking coffee or wine, and overthinking pretty much everything.

Thanks for being here.

– Alison
