Welcome! I'm Alegre and I'm a
Mom, Entrepreneur, & Brain Science Nerd
and I know what's it's like to:
- Feel tired and overwhelmed.
- Never have enough time...period.
- Not be able to work on things that matter to you.
If this sounds like you, you might be suffering from burn-out.
If you're a parent, you're at even higher risk for it.
And if you're a woman, and a woman of color, the odds go even higher (NOT a good thing!).
You aren't alone. In a recent study, 66% of parents studied were experiencing burn-out.
But I have some good news! Burn-out can be recognized and avoided. I read a sixty-page report on it and put together a 1-page cheat sheet called "BEAT BURNOUT: recognize and combat parental burnout with three daily, science-backed practices you can start now".

Right now you might be struggling, suffering from caregiver burnout, but you dream of a scenario where everyone wins. I am here to tell you that it exists. There IS a way for you to show up for those who need you AND take care of yourself too. And it’s not just good for you, it’s good for your family as well. Just like the friendly flight attendant likes to remind us, we have to #PutOnYourOxygenMaskFirst before we can help others.
The solution is to prioritize yourself with self-care!
Now you might be thinking:
- "I don't have time for that" or
- "That's selfish" or
- "I'm supposed to sacrifice myself."
And what I want to tell you is this:
You deserve to take care of yourself because we all deserve to live happy, healthy, joyful lives! I
can show you how to have more time and energy with the tiniest of changes (we are talking seconds here), and we aren't talking about diet or exercise because while that's important, it's not our area of expertise. We are talking about subtle shifts you can implement RIGHT now.

WHY I CREATED BYWD
Hi, I'm Alegre and along with my frequent collaborator Natascha, we are two moms, entrepreneur-educators, and Wild Dreamers who believed it was possible to:
- be great moms and partners,
- maintain our mental/physical/emotional health
- & achieve our goals big and small.
At some point we realized in order to live our
wild dreams, we needed to become better planners and--like the good Ravenclaws we are--we became students of planning.
Because one thing is for sure: we all have the same 24 hours but we don't all spend it the same.
And you know what? YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO ALL OF YOUR DREAMS, big and small.
We don't discriminate about what sort of dreams you have! Your dreams may be as "small" as getting in some self-care once a month or finishing all the projects around the house. Or they may be as big as starting a business or heading a nonprofit. And lots of them are probably somewhere in between--trip to Paris anyone?
When you pursue your dreams, you show your kids how to pursue theirs. When you step into your greatness, you raise up everyone around you.
Every one of us deserves the opportunity to become our best selves, find our gifts, and share them with the world. Not only do we deserve it, the world needs it!
