I am so excited to watch women become fearless, to love recklessly, to pursue their passions + purpose, to share the truth, & to bring women together to live a life being unashamed for who they are and what they believe.

Hello, December. In case you didn't know, December is my favorite month in the year {insert buddy the elf voice} because the snow starts falling, it's my birthday month, & every day we get closer to Christmas life feels a little more magical.

Giving the permission to talk about…
Depression. It is a pretty ugly thing. It has the power to hurt so many people and ruin lives. I have recently seen two beautiful young women lose their lives from this terrible thing. My stomach instantly sunk when I heard the news and read the words of a mom who just lost her daughter. How … Continue reading Giving the permission to talk about…
Seek the JOY
Compare yourself to others and lose all joy OR decide to enjoy the journey you are on. Now, I won’t say that it’s been easy to get to the point where I am no longer comparing {and really, I find myself slipping into the comparison game from time to time}, but what I have found … Continue reading Seek the JOY

It has been easier filling my time with other things, and putting … Continue reading opening old wounds.
raising a generation
I thank God for these beautiful babies. We get to encourage, teach, cuddle, love, kiss boo boos, patch ouchies, be present and be their biggest cheerleaders. We are raising a generation. Let's be honest, it's not always a walk in the park. It's freaking hard. I make mistakes, I get mad, I zone out, I … Continue reading raising a generation
