About
My name is Aime Hernandez
I’m so glad you’re here!
As a mom of 3 little ones, I know firsthand how overwhelming it can be to juggle the endless demands of motherhood while staying true to who you are and the life you want to build. Like you, I’ve experienced the chaos of raising kids, managing a household, and trying to find time for my own dreams—all while striving to live a life of purpose, love, and intention.
This blog, Joy Above Rubies, was born out of my desire to help moms like you embrace the beauty and challenges of motherhood with purpose and joy. It’s a place where we can celebrate the treasures of family life, learn how to balance our roles, and find encouragement to pursue what matters most without burnout or guilt.
My Journey
After my first child arrived, I felt overwhelmed and alone. I quickly discovered I wasn’t the only one; many moms were silently struggling too. That’s when I decided to build a supportive community where we could share our experiences and lift each other up.
For years, I heard the same frustrations: “It’s so hard!” and “I can either have a career or be a mom” but I wanted both. I wanted to enjoy vacations, invest in my family’s future, and savor the precious moments with my kids. And guess what? You can have it all!
Now, I’m here to show you how to create a joyful life that honors your desires. You deserve to enjoy motherhood today, not just wait for the kids to grow up.
Together, let’s embrace a fulfilling journey where inner joy and love for family reign supreme.
Why I Started This Blog
For years, I struggled to find a rhythm that worked for my family and me. I wanted to pour into my children, support my husband, and contribute financially, but I often felt stretched too thin and unsure if I was doing enough—or doing it right. Over time, I realized that the key wasn’t in doing more but in focusing on what truly matters: living intentionally, managing my time and resources wisely, and finding joy in the everyday moments.
I started Joy Above Rubies to share what I’ve learned and to remind other moms that you don’t have to choose between your family and your passions—you can thrive in both. Here, you’ll find practical tips for managing your home, finances, and personal growth, along with encouragement to find joy in the work of motherhood, even when it feels hard.
My Mission
My heart is to help moms like you:
-
Feel empowered to balance all the hats you wear.
-
Discover joy in the small, meaningful moments of family life.
-
Live intentionally according to your faith and values.
You’re not alone in this journey, and I hope you’ll find encouragement, inspiration, and a sense of community here. Whether you’re looking for practical advice or a little reminder that what you’re doing matters, I want this space to feel like a friend cheering you on.
Thank you for being here. I can’t wait to walk this journey together!
With love,
Aime Hernandez
