For every mother who feels she is coming up short, Cynthia has a message: Be Kind to Yourself, Embrace the Good, and Find Joy in the Everyday. With her humorous and sincere conversational style, she recounts the ups and downs, mistakes, and triumphs of her family and encourages mothers to use a new yardstick of success and have confidence in their individual talents.

When she is not writing or recording her podcast, Cynthia enjoys serving in her church and community, spending time with family, sewing copious amounts of clothing and quilts for her cute grandchildren, reading mystery novels, and gardening. Her favorite outdoor activity is making the rounds at the Fort Worth Zoo with her husband, Rich, especially checking in on her beloved elephants.
