Hello!
Nice to meet you, I am Shannon—wife, mom of three boys, full-time businesswoman, and the heart behind Mom Life Playbook.
I started this blog because I was tired of seeing the picture-perfect highlight reels that flood social media. Motherhood isn't always polished—and it certainly isn’t perfect. I wanted a space to show the real side of life. The messy, chaotic, laugh-through-the-tears, crockpot-dumping, chocolate-in-the-pantry kind of life. I’m far from perfect, but I show up, love hard, and do my best every single day—and that’s what makes me a great mom. I’m guessing that makes you one too.
Here, you’ll find:
-
Real life mom tips (the kind you can actually use)
-
Easy family meal ideas (mostly dump-and-go crockpot wins)
-
Busy mom hacks (from a mom who’s doing it all, just like you)
-
Encouragement for serving your family without losing yourself
​
Who is this for?
If you’re a sports mom, a mom of boys, a faith-filled mama, or just someone juggling all the things with a ponytail and a prayer—you’re in the right place. This space is for moms who want to feel seen, supported, and inspired (with zero judgment).
My Story
A little about me…
I’m a full-time working mom, helping run our family business, Heavy Hitch, where we manufacture tractor attachments and offer welding and fabrication services. At work, I manage everything from marketing to customer service to sweeping the floors. But this blog? This blog is mine—my creative space to share, reflect, and connect with other moms navigating the same beautiful chaos.
​
My three boys ply multiple sports and keep me on my toes! My oldest is strong-willed and doesn’t like change (especially when it comes to dinner... or even his brand of underwear!). My middle son is sweet, empathetic, and lives in his own little peaceful bubble. And the youngest? He’s 110% energy, personality, and tall sock enthusiasm—his style drives his dad and big brother nuts, and I secretly love it.
​Why I do this
I want Mom Life Playbook to be a place where you feel like you’re not alone. A space that reminds you it’s okay to not have it all together. That you don’t need to chase perfection—you just need to show up and do your best. I also started this blog as a way to express myself creatively and, eventually, help support my family.
We’re a God-loving family doing our best to walk in Jesus’ footsteps, and I’m learning every day how to lead with grace and grow through the mess.
​
Oh—and one more thing:
I’ve recently transitioned to a carnivore way of eating, and I’ll be sharing that journey here too—why I started, what’s working, and how it fits into our crazy family life.
So if you’re looking for a place to laugh, learn, and feel a little less alone in the madness, I hope you’ll stick around. Because every day is a gift—and the goal isn’t to be perfect. It’s to win the day… whatever that looks like for you.
