✨ 🎀 Hi I’m Jess 🎀 ✨

Hi !!! Let me introduce myself I’m Jess or Jessica whatever you wanna call me, I have been A National Park Service backcountry trail worker, equestrian packing and logger, historic preservationist (ranger) For many parks Sequoia NP, Kings Canyon NP but for the longest Yosemite NP and let me tell you becoming a mom was such a huge identity crisis I love being a mother but my life DRASTICALLY CHANGED but it didn’t really change it just expanded! In such a beautiful way, my story started with Momcozy when I needed a wearable breast pump and I had pretty bad PPD I was a lost puppy scared of being a bad mom , anxious all kinds of feels but with that pump brought me to the most supportive community I could have asked for I mean seriously this space helped me through so much identity crisis, and fear and uncertainty, the support i received through Momcozy and the beautiful mothers here idk what I would have ever done without! I mean I went from trails for work to pumping and hiking and to me I wouldn’t have been able to merge these two life’s if it wasn’t for the mothers in this community and all of your support!!! You helped shape me into a confident trail mama.

I will see my favorite memory with Momcozy is going to the comebackstrong event and meeting so many of you in person that have supported me through this entire journey seriously it’s been more than a pleasure it’s been a blessing cheers to all of you :sparkles::tada: I’m so grateful to be here with you growing and learning aside one another

Wow, I really enjoyed reading your post and learning more about you. Your job sounds actually really fun because I love being outdoors and it honestly looks so peaceful. I wish I could have a similar job like that, but I don’t know if I could stand the heat. :weary_face::joy:

The comeback event sounds and looked really fun. I hope there can be similar events in Texas in the future, but who knows :smiling_face_with_sunglasses::eyes:

Becoming a mom does drastically change your life and it takes so long to adjust to everything afterwards. I’m so glad to see that you’re still able to go out and be in nature and do what you love and you bring your mom cozy pumps and your little one too

Jess this is lovely!! Love the pictures and it’s so cool that you love the outdoors and backcountry. It really is such a massive shift into motherhood I was struggling a little too at the beginning realizing how different my life was becoming with being in demand 24/7. but I think it takes time and patience and it seems like you have just grown beautifully into your motherhood and I always LOVE seeing these awesome pictures! Thank you for always commenting and supporting :growing_heart:
