    February 24, 2023 /

    The Gabb Phone Plus is the newest phone from Gabb Wireless. It’s basically the original Gabb Phone (Gabb Z2) supercharged. It has all the basic features the Gabb phone has plus “safe, curated apps” that a parent can enable. According to Gabb’s website, the Gabb Phone Plus is Gabb’s premium phone in a Samsung device and has an “all-metal frame for improved durability,” an “edge-to-edge Infinity Display, and a lighter, slimmer profile for kid and teen hands.” We found the Gabb Phone Plus easy to navigate.

Meet the Mom Behind Easeful Motherhood

Hi, I’m Carolyn.
I’m a mom to two girls and a night owl—a combination that used to leave me chronically exhausted.

But learning my Human Design changed everything.

It helped me understand my energy, honor my natural rhythm, and wake up with more ease (even when the mornings come too early).

Do I still have tired nights and fall asleep before everything is done?
Absolutely.

But now I give myself compassion instead of guilt, and that shift alone has transformed my motherhood.

Now I help other moms discover the same clarity, compassion, and alignment in their parenting and their energy through Human Design.
