Home - Black Mom Chronicles

This is the space where I put all the pieces together.

Let’s engage in themes of life, parenting, and relationships.

About Me

Hello there 🙂

My name is Karabo Mokoena and I am a South African parenting writer and content producer.

Becoming a wife to Sechaba and mother to Tshimoloho re-introduced me to a version of myself that I love. I love seeing the world and myself through my husband’s and daughter’s eyes.

I share insightful content about my past, my parenting experience, my journey with therapy and creating and maintaining a healthy family life.

Here, we learn as we go.

Let’s share the journey together 🙂
