A newsletter that explores the intersection of motherhood and identity, fueled by lukewarm coffee and sarcasm.
Thank You for Sharing is a newsletter written by me, Stephanie Gilman, a millennial mom trying not to lose myself while raising young kids. If you've read my writing before, you probably know what to expect: vulnerable, relatable insights, with a healthy dose of dry humour. You might laugh, you might cry, and—hopefully—you’ll feel a little less alone.
My writing has appeared in ELLE Canada, Yahoo, Today’s Parent, The Lily/Washington Post, Business Insider, Huffington Post, Kveller, and other publications. The most common comment I receive whenever I write is: “Thank you for sharing.” So here I am, sharing my candid reflections on parenting, self-discovery, and all the messy stuff in between. I hope you find some comfort and connection in the words I put out there.
Who is this newsletter for?
This newsletter is for you if:
You’re a parent trying to figure out who you are—or really, just a human trying to figure out who you are.
You wonder how other moms find the time to write books, train for triathlons, or just have hobbies.
You long for deeper conversations, not just about kids, but about life and identity.
You enjoy relatable content that makes you say, “I feel the exact same way.”
Who am I?
Hi, I'm Steph and I'm a freelance writer living in Toronto, Canada. I live with one handsome husband, two rambunctious boys, and a drawer full of mismatched socks. I've survived some stuff like cancer, anxiety, depression, and raising two little kids during a raging pandemic. I’m an introvert, a Leo, an INFJ, and an Enneagram 4. My favourite things to talk about are what TV show I’m currently streaming, what my kids didn’t eat for dinner, and how exhausted I am.
Why subscribe?
Make life a little less complicated and subscribe so you don't have to worry about missing an update. I’ll do my best to make it worth your while. You can receive most posts for free, or become a paid subscriber which will allow you to read all the archives and financially support my writing, which takes a lot of time and effort. Zero judgment if you can’t or don’t want to pay—but if you can and decide to, I am extremely grateful. 🙏
Buy me a coffee ☕
Writing is hard work! If you can’t afford a paid subscription but would still like to show your support, you can buy me a coffee (and I really need the caffeine 😴).
