Nadia Serhan writes about the messy, practical reality of maintaining your health and appearance while raising small children in a climate that isn't always on your side. She moved to the Gulf before her first child was born and has spent seven years navigating postpartum hair loss, baby skincare, toddler routines, and everything in between. Her content is honest, slightly irreverent, and never condescending. She assumes her reader is exhausted and needs actual answers, not encouragement.
