Welcome to The Rookie Mom Playbook
Real talk, no fluff, just the stuff that actually helps. This is your go-to guide for navigating the wild ride of motherhood, packed with honest tips, hard-won lessons, and sanity-saving solutions for rookie moms figuring it out one messy day at a time.
I’m Kristine Sommer, former professional rugby player, turned businesswoman, now mom of (almost) two wild little boys. I used to be the kind of person who (mostly) had her shit together. Then came motherhood - chaotic, beautiful, humbling, and suddenly I was figuring out how to survive the day with a baby on my hip and breast milk on my shirt.
​
The Rookie Mom Playbook was born from that shift. I’m not here to tell you how to do it “right” - I’m here to share what’s worked, what didn’t, and the honest in-between. Think: an upgraded '90s mom mindset - simple gear, real food, less stuff, more sanity. We don’t have the space (literally or emotionally) for fluff.
​
If any of my experiences, fails, or wins help you feel less alone or more prepared, then I’m doing what I set out to do. Welcome to the playbook, real talk, no BS, and a lot of love.
