This newsletter exists to help pregnant and postpartum people feel more confident, less overwhelmed, and better supported through the first year of their baby's life—so they can make informed choices and actually enjoy their lives (even when things get complicated).

14 years into crafting edible flowers and still enjoying the fact that I can make a living doing what I love. Join me as I share practical flower making tips & tutorials on how to create beautiful edible flowers & cake designs, and personal heartfelt letters for creatives and lessons I learnt along the way as a creative business owner (that may benefit you and help you thrive in what you do too).

I’m Kara Ryska, a life and leadership coach, podcaster, and mom of four who’s passionate about helping women live with more peace, resilience, and joy—without having to pretend, push, or prove. As the host of The Special Needs Mom Podcast and creator of the Pathway to Peace Coaching Community, I specialize in supporting moms raising children with medical complexities, but my work resonates far beyond. My weekly newsletter is where I share real-life stories, faith-centered encouragement, and practical tools for navigating the messy intersection of parenting, relationships, and personal growth. Think of it as a safe space in your inbox to exhale, laugh a little, and find fresh strength for whatever you’re carrying. Join the 300+ subscribers who are leaning into community and discovering new ways to thrive in the midst of life’s hardest challenges.
