Mama Be Present

"Brit has a gentle and honest way of reminding us moms to embrace the chaos. This book is the calm we all need in the storm of new motherhood." -Shayna Ferm, author of Parentally Incorrect and creator of The Pump and Dump Show

"The way to joy is through the exhaustion and chaos, and these prompts point the way. Bravo to Brit for creating something personal, beautiful, and REAL for mamas everywhere." -Karen Deerwester, owner of Family Time, Inc. and host of the See Me Hear Me Love Me podcast

"Ever since participating in Brit's take-a-break challenge in 2016, I've been a big fan of her work. Not only has she inspired various MOPS communities I've invited her to speak at, but thanks to her engaging and convincing principles of self-care, I've kept up with many habits I've developed from her online programs. Now, she has created a book for moms that is simple in practice yet so deeply powerful. Her writing is a gift." -Sherri Crandall, VP of Global Ministries and Leadership Experience at MOPS International

Praise from Members of the Mama Be Present Community:

"Brit strikes a powerful balance between hilarious and raw, story and research, and light-hearted and profound as she walks alongside moms guiding them in the most contradictory role in life: motherhood." -Christin Bourg

"I'm astonished at how thought-provoking Mama Be Present was for me. All along, you think it's just about how to be a more present mom, but in reality, you're also finding who YOU are again. I was in tears at the end. Brit's prompts are some of the most insightful things I've ever read. 'Stop. Drop. Mom.' and 'Return to You' will stay with me forever." -Amy Norbert McKeon

"Brit has helped me see that everyday seemingly insignificant things actually play a big role in creating joy. From ways to PLAY with my kids without embarrassment to how to plan for certain situations, this book has shifted my expectations and given me great tools for joyful parenting." -Kristal Schneider
