About Me

Welcome to my corner of the internet! I’m Nory, a wife and mom of two beautiful children, who I had after the age of 40. My husband and I come from different cultural backgrounds—I’m from Guatemala, and he’s from the Philippines—which gives our family a rich multicultural dynamic. We’ve been blessed to raise our children in a bilingual home, speaking both Spanish and English.

As a stay-at-home mom living in a fixer-upper, my days are filled with family adventures, cooking delicious meals, and working on home renovations—all while embracing a minimalist and frugal lifestyle. With a background in marriage and family therapy, I also have a passion for mental health and wellness, focusing on gratitude, positive habits, and coping strategies for anxiety and depression. Faith is at the core of everything I do, and I strive to maintain a healthy marriage through a Christian perspective, sharing faith-based insights along the way.

Here on my blog, you’ll find content that reflects my journey: tips for parenting after 40, home decor and renovation projects, multicultural family life, personal reflections, and even some of my favorite recipes! I hope to inspire others to embrace the beauty of simplicity, gratitude, and mindful living in all aspects of life.

Thank you for being here, and I look forward to sharing this journey with you!
