Erin P.T. Canning created Life Beyond Parenting to help herself rediscover who she is—in addition to being a mother of two young boys. As she shares her journey with trauma, anxiety, and peaceful parenting, she hopes to help other parents share their stories, to remember life beyond parenting, to feel heard and validated, and to connect with kindred spirits.
Both an editor and writer, Erin has worked on publications that discuss topics including child endangerment, hate crimes, and community engagement and tolerance. She also earned her MA in Creative Writing from Johns Hopkins and has resumed working on her first novel.
