I’M AMy ROTTUNDA.

I’m a Minneapolis-based writer, listener, learner, and a pretty strong mom. Not because I’ve gotten it all right, but because I’m still here, still learning, still building a life that is authentic.

I started writing Pretty Strong Mom in February 2024. The book is in progress, and the Substack newsletter is on the way, with sneak peeks of book content.

My writing focus is on parenting my two sons, one through addiction and homelessness. I share my journey to becoming a pretty strong mom by reflecting on my childhood, family abandonment, divorce and the impact of untreated trauma.

The book is my experience about what happened, the cost to my family, and what it looks like to keep .

Let’s connect in the spirit of collaborative community by sharing common life experiences and encouraging each other on a journey towards awareness, acceptance, and action.

You are not alone.
