From the first aching seconds to the first toddling steps, this collection is a gentle invitation to reflect and look how far you've come. So often, motherhood is loaded with advice or judgment, but Rachel's tender and deeply observant poems are a reminder to just be and enjoy. Her words unlocked memories and allowed me to relive joyful moments from my own experiences. But even more importantly, each poem makes you feel a little less alone. Rachel is a gifted storyteller and evocative writer, allowing readers to hold space for the particular rollercoaster of emotions in early parenthood. Reading this felt like a much-needed hug from a good friend.
-Katy Luxem, author, Until It Is True
What an art to feel completely moved in few words. Collectively it feels like a familiar home, and each page is a window into my emotions.
-Jessica Urlichs, author, Beautiful Chaos
Tiny Universe is a beautiful encapsulation of early motherhood and its complexities - how the hard parts live alongside the happy parts, and all we can do is embrace it. Reading these poems took my breath away and made my heart ache. I felt so seen and reflected in Rachel's raw, candid accounts of her own experiences.
-Kelsey Haywood Lucas, creator, Motherspeak
