Meet Rachel: The Modern Matriarch

Hi there! I'm Rachel, the heart and soul behind The Modern Matriarch. I'm a proud mother to three amazing daughters, a wife, a veteran, and a passionate advocate for women’s empowerment. Life has taken me on quite the journey, and through every twist and turn, I've learned the beauty of connection, resilience, and self-discovery.

My Journey

As a veteran turned stay-at-home mom, I’ve navigated the challenges of balancing career, family, and personal growth. Now, working full-time and raising a family, I understand the joys and struggles of wearing many hats. Like many women over 40, I've had to rewrite the narrative of my life, finding balance and rediscovering my passions along the way.

My Passion

The Modern Matriarch is my way of giving back—to create a space where women over 40 can find encouragement, community, and inspiration. I believe in celebrating the vibrant, multi-faceted lives we lead and embracing every chapter as an opportunity for growth.

Here, I share stories, resources, and insights that speak to the heart of motherhood, marriage, and self-discovery. My goal is to help women feel seen, heard, and supported as they navigate their unique paths.

My Values

I believe in kindness, authenticity, and the power of community. My journey has shaped my commitment to empowering women to embrace their true selves and find joy in the everyday moments. I am passionate about social justice, gentle parenting, and fostering a better world for the next generation.

A Little More About Me

• Mom Life: My three daughters—August, Aspen, and Austyn—keep my life full of laughter, creativity, and adventure. They inspire me every day to be the best version of myself.
• Hobbies: When I’m not working or spending time with my family, you’ll find me delving into a good book, exploring my spirituality, or getting my hands dirty planning my dream witchy garden.
• Philosophy: I believe life is about progress, not perfection. It’s okay to pause, reflect, and reimagine what you want your life to look like.

Join Me

This is a space for you, too. Whether you’re looking for support, inspiration, or just someone who gets it, I’m so glad you’re here. Together, we can celebrate the beauty of our unique journeys, lift each other up, and embrace the incredible women we are.

Let’s navigate this chapter of life—together.
