    007 | Siobhan Gallagher on Normal Levels of Spiraling

    Siobhan Gallagher is an illustrator, author, and new(ish) mom whose work is funny, deeply relatable, and beautifully earnest. Siobhan has built a career around turning the messy, awkward, and often unspoken parts of life into illustrations that make me feel a little more seen. Siobhan's daughter Jonie is 7 months old, so that should have given her more than enough time to have completely reinvented herself as a Mom. Let's find out!
