About

Hey, I’m Haley.

I’m a wife, mom, full-time diesel mechanic, and personal trainer who somehow always has one more project going. Life around here is a mix of work, family, animals, fitness, and trying to make the most of what we have and that’s exactly what you’ll find on this blog.

I’ve spent more than a decade in the diesel and automotive world, and being a mechanic has taught me to be independent, solve problems, work hard, and not be afraid to get my hands dirty. I’m also a personal trainer and love helping women get stronger and healthier without making fitness their entire life. Somewhere between working full-time, raising a family, building businesses, and keeping up with our little piece of the country, I’ve learned that life rarely goes exactly according to plan.

This blog is where I share all of it: motherhood, marriage, farm life, animals, fitness, food, money, work, DIY projects, and the everyday chaos that comes with trying to do it all. Some posts will be practical, some personal, and some will probably start with, “Well… that didn’t go as planned.”

I don’t have life figured out, and I’m not trying to pretend I do. I’m just figuring out how to build a good, meaningful life with the people and things I love.
