Hi, I’m Alexis!

I’m a writer, a mama, and the voice behind Making a Mama. I created this space during one of the hardest seasons of my life, when I was deep in the trenches of infertility and searching for hope, healing, and connection. I needed a space to be raw and real—and maybe you do too.

Over time, my journey shifted. I became a mom, but the struggles didn’t just disappear—they changed. And I realized that so many of us are out here carrying so much, no matter what stage of motherhood we’re in.

So now, Making a Mama is for all of us—for the ones still waiting, the ones grieving, the ones healing, and the ones raising babies while trying to hold onto ourselves. This space is about community, comfort, and reminding each other that we’re not alone. Because, honestly? It takes a village—and I’m so glad you’re here.
