Onnie is an amazing podcaster who really brings to light what it’s like being a mom through good times and chaos. As a dad, her insights allow for me to understand what my wife goes through on a day-to-day basis. Moreover, each episode and guest brings to light the difficulties my partner may be confronted with as a mom, wife and woman. But more importantly, through these discussions, it’s understanding the difficulties that allow for me to adapt and confront these challenges in order for her to know that she can keep the super hero uniform folded in the drawer unused, and instead, rely on her metaphorical Robin (me) to overcome the obstacles we as parents must face, so she can instead flourish as Bruce Wayne rather than feeling the daily impulse to don a Batman mask and cape.

My Mission

say yes to you!

Are you tired of feeling like a rundown battery, constantly on-call for everyone else’s needs? You’re not alone. Millions of moms juggle endless tasks, sacrificing their well-being. But what if you could be a happier, healthier mom overflowing with the energy and patience your family deserves?

Hi, I’m Onnie, founder of Moms Without Capes®, and I get it. I spent years feeling lost in the “mom” role, neglecting my own needs and feeling burnt out. This impacted not only my mental and physical health but also my relationships with my family.

But I didn’t stay stuck. I found a way to prioritize self-care and rediscover the vibrant person I was behind the cape. Now, I’m on a mission to help YOU do the same.

Fun Fact #1

“A Philadelphia native, I now call the beautiful state of Montana home. After meeting my husband in Georgia, we moved to Big Sky Country in 2009. I enjoy exploring the great outdoors, experiencing the vibrant local culture, and embracing the slower pace of life that Montana offers.”

Fun Fact #2

“Passionate about languages, I studied Spanish, German, and French in high school and continued my linguistic journey with Spanish and Italian in college, including a study abroad experience. While I’ve lost some fluency over the years, relearning Italian is a goal I’m excited to pursue.”

Fun Fact #3

“I have always been captivated by the ocean and achieved a lifelong dream of learning to surf while on vacation at La Jolla Beach. Although Montana doesn’t have waves, I still savor the excitement of water sports by paddleboarding, allowing me to connect with nature right in my own backyard.”

People Are Talking

I can highly recommend this. I have been with Onnie since 2019. I became a better wife, mom, daughter, and friend because she gave me hope, faith and the power to overcome all my obstacles in my life.

I enjoy being a part of your group and engaging and networking with other moms. You have been helpful in me staying consistent on working on myself as a mom.
Diana S.
Thank you for your encouragement and your energy! That was such a nice kick-off and great way to start the week - by dreaming and thinking of ourselves. Something we really don't do enough of!
Christina D.
After I started setting aside time for myself each day, I felt refreshed and my mental health has improved tremendously. I have a clearer mind and I'm able to find balance. It's ok now if I don't complete my to do list where before that caused major anxiety. I forgot who I was outside of being a mom, wife, and nurse and self-care helped me find myself.

Onnie is so honest and real! She not only shares the reality of motherhood but ways to make every day better, cope with stresses, and give yourself the care you deserve.
Lori O.
Participating in the Moms Without Capes Self-Care Challenge was just what I needed at the exact time I needed. I was reminded how to be intentional and really give myself the care I needed to just take a break from my busy world and be in the moment.
