I have been obsessed with intuition, inner voice, serendipity, and all things mindfulness lately. Call it a gut feeling, a sixth sense of a passing thought….your intuition is a powerful tool. It’s your inner GPS if you will. It’s a…
If I’ve learned anything in the last 40 years, it’s that life doesn’t always go as planned. I have two auto immune disorders that require 24/7 management. Our daughter has a life altering physical disability and her own chronic heart…

Back in my 20s and 30s, there was only one goal when it came to fitness: be skinny. Do the hardest workout with the highest likelihood of getting defined abs. Did this approach work well for me? Nope. Absolutely not….

I realize this idea comes, in part, because I’m a parent of a disabled little girl. I’m very conscious of the emphasis we put on looks, appearance, and our bodies in this culture. I don’t want to tie her worth…

Hi, I’m Jaime — writer, mother, storyteller, and the heart behind The Wildflower Edit. For nearly a decade, I wrote online as The Princess and the Prosthetic, sharing my daughter’s journey with disability and the lessons our family learned along the way. It was a beautiful season — full of advocacy, connection, and community — but as my daughter grew older, I felt a shift. She deserved more autonomy. More privacy. More room to decide how she shows up in the world. And I realized something else: My own story was expanding too. Motherhood was still here. Disability was still here. But so were grief, healing, womanhood, nervous system care, feminine energy, homemaking, identity, softness… the fuller, deeper pieces of life that were ready to be spoken aloud. Whether you come for the cozy routines, the motherhood reflections, the disability advocacy, or the soft life inspiration — thank you for choosing to share this space with me. Pour a warm drink. Settle in. Let’s grow a life that feels like you again.
Jaime
