Beautiful Chaos: On Motherhood, Finding Yourself, and Overwhelming Love

From Instagram sensation Jessica Urlichs, an inspiringly vulnerable collection of poems exploring the sacred, tender, and beautifully chaotic moments of motherhood.

You are a mother
but never, just

When poet Jessica Urlichs became a mother, she learned that the everyday ordinary is extraordinary. In Beautiful Chaos, Jess chronicles it all--the highs, the lows, the confusion, the loss of identity, the becoming, and the brutal but beautiful ways our children hold up a mirror to ourselves. Through her relatable and cathartic poems that poignantly capture motherhood from pregnancy to school age, Jess offers healing to those who need it, a reminder of a cherished time gone by, or even a grounding in your current moment.

Wherever you are in your parenting journey, Jess's poems will make you feel seen and comforted amid the beautiful chaos that is motherhood.
