Hi there everyone, I’m Abby Dosen a writer, Instagram book blogger, former English language arts and reading teacher, and most importantly, a mom to my three little girls Zoey, Mia, and Emma.

As the founder of @adosenbooks, an online community for readers, I’ve spent years connecting with thousands of moms with a passion for reading, learning, and growing. As I continued to get to know a wide variety of moms through my book club, Book Moms Book Club, I noticed that countless women were struggling to navigate the challenges of parenthood while trying to keep their own identities intact.

I’m thrilled to introduce you to my new book, Realistic Self-Care for Moms: A Guided Journal for Taking Care of You While Taking Care of Them. With my background in education and a deep passion for supporting moms as well as my experience hosting a personal development book club at my yoga studio, I’ve crafted this journal to offer real, practical self-care tips that can easily fit into the busiest of days.
