Meet Julie
Wild Mother Art is both her life’s work and her invitation to other mothers:
Your voice matters. Your art matters. And it is never too late.
Julie is an artist, creator, and guide devoted to helping mothers reclaim their creative power. A Yale-trained theater artist and two-time SAG Award winner (Orange Is the New Black), she has worked extensively in theater, television, and storytelling, with projects selected for SXSW and pitched to major networks and platforms.
Motherhood did not gently reshape her creative life—it dismantled it and demanded something truer. Through pregnancy, career upheaval, relocation, and early motherhood, Julie rebuilt her creative voice from the inside out.
When her second child was six months old, Julie began songwriting and playing the piano, opening a new chapter of creative expression in the midst of early motherhood. She wove this original music into her award-winning two-woman play Forget-Me-Not, a piece centered on motherhood and creativity, which she brought to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival while raising young children.
Julie understands what it means to birth art while raising children—and to create through fear, exhaustion, and cultural conditioning. Her work now supports mothers in dismantling limiting beliefs, reclaiming courage, and returning to creative expression.
She believes mothers are not meant to disappear. They are meant to lead, imagine, and create.
