Meet Courtney

Welcome!

I’m Courtney Feldman, or imperfectly courtney, as I’m known around certain parts of the internet.

Yes, I take myself very seriously… clearly.

I am mom to a sassy 10 year old girl (who will always be my boo bear) and also to the world’s most adorable rescue pup, my Harley girl. I have a wonderful boyfriend, the artist, who brings so much love, laughter, and adventure to my life.

I got married at 20 and divorced at 30. I graduated with my Master’s in Counseling in March of 2019, began my PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision in August 2019, and am currently a Provisionally Licensed Professional Counselor (PLPC) in the state of Missouri.

Writing has always been something that I have loved. I have been writing in diaries since I was little girl, graduating to journals as a teenager (because it sounded way more mature). I rode the online self-expression train from geocities to xanga eventually moving to myspace and facebook notes… eventually starting my own blog around 2009 as a way of keeping my family up to date on my pregnancy and my growing baby girl. Since 2009 my life has changed course approximately a gazillion times and so has my little slice of the internet, but one thing has stayed the same… writing has been the compass I use to ground myself.

I believe we all have stories to tell and that sharing our stories is one of the most powerful ways to facilitate genuine human connection. This virtual living room is intended to be a welcoming place where you celebrate your imperfections and are loved exactly as you are.

I’m glad you’re here. Grab a seat, get comfy, and stay for a bit so we can learn more about each other.

You’re imperfect, you are wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging.

  1. Hi there,

    My twin sister and I recently started an online business to help keep
    kids safe called Stick to Kids http://www.sticktokids.com. We really love
    your blog and think your readers would be interested in our website.

    We’re both parents of rambunctious children and the thought of losing
    one as we turned our heads in a busy place was too scary. So this is
    what we came up with – customized temporary tattoos. Choose a custom tattoo and type your personalized message like:
    – your emergency phone number;
    – who to contact;
    – allergy alerts;
    – or other important messages that your child could fail to remember,
    especially in times of panic. Perfect for parents, grandparents,
    teachers, play groups and just for fun! These tattoos are waterproof
    and FDA approved.

    We would love for you to blog about our product. Please visit
    http://www.sticktokids.com or if you are interested in learning more, please
    contact me at anna@sticktokids.com.

    Look forward to speaking with you and sharing this new idea with your readers!

    Best regards,

  2. HI Courtney,

    My name is Marli Davis and I’m the social media coordinator for Scrunchie Cap®, a new women’s hat concept founded by an entrepreneurial mom, Kelly Frank. We love your fresh point of view and amazing reviews and know you are always in search of the coolest, most unique products to share with your readers, fans, and of course your family! I would love to introduce you to Scrunchie Cap®, which is quickly becoming the hottest new fashion accessory for women as well as a staple for every mom on the go!

    Scrunchie Cap® allows women with ponytails the ability to easily keep their hair contained and never have to struggle to adjust their cap with an enclosure that pulls the hairs on the nape of your neck again. With Scrunchie Caps® patented built in elastic ponytail wrap, pulling your ponytail through the back and wrapping the soft fabric wrapped elastic makes this process simple and comfortable. We’re constantly adding new designs to our collection and always on the pulse for what’s fun and new.

    Among countless trade publications, Scrunchie Cap® was recently featured on The Balancing Act on Lifetime as one of the must-haves for every active lifestyle woman. We would absolutely love to send some product your way for you to sample or even host a special Scrunchie Cap® giveaway!

    Here is a link to check out our youtube video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZdGgse1Z08&feature=player_embedded
