About Me

Amy-Sink

Hi! I'm Amy Sink. I live in Raleigh, NC. I'm a wife, mom to three littles, full-time marketer, occasional runner, recovering perfectionist. I'm also a proud birthmom to a 18-year-old daughter, who I placed in an open adoption in 2005. I enjoy writing about an assortment of topics including navigating life as a birthmother, raising littles while maintaining a career, hosting our family's first au pair, finding work-appropriate pants that fit after the pandemic, and making peace with the fact that kids will destroy all the pretty things and life isn't perfect. Thanks for following along!
