A solid morning routine sets you up for success the rest of your day.
These are the habits I've curated over the years that work really well for me 🌱

Don't like these? No problem. Start here instead 👇
- Which morning routine habits do you currently have that you want to keep?
- Which ones do you want to get rid of?
Keep what works & throw out what doesn't!

The point is : start your day feeling refreshed and set up for success!

And there's no better time that NOW to just start 👏

Each morning, we start with a blank page 💡

While in the past that has seemed intimidating to me, lately, I'm doing my best to embrace the 'adventure'.

What will God show me today?
What does He want me to hear?
Who will He intersect my path with?
What lesson will He have taught me by the end of the day?

Now don't get me wrong - over the past couple years, there have been plenty of life lessons I had NO DESIRE to learn.

(And why do they always seem to come in a cluster?! 😅)

But I'm choosing to see the gifts, embrace the challenges, and surrender to the refining process.

To those of you who are also walking it out, I see you 👀

My prompt for you:
👉 How are you choosing to respond to life's blank page today?

-------------------------

Yes, I journal every morning (and lately, every night, too). It's how I'm processing everything coming at me.
At least one page. Every morning. Anything goes. Written like a prayer - sometimes in a calm tone... & sometimes shouting! LET'S BE REAL 😅

I can't recommend this habit enough!

Do you journal? If so, what are your 'rules' & rhythms for the practice?

Do you see it? 🌈

Yesterday evening, I stepped outside to walk Niko. And there it was in the sky!

Almost as quickly as I took these pics, it disappeared. Like God put it there just for me to see 🥹

Felt like a hug from Him!

If you’re going through a hard season that feels like it might not ever end, I SEE YOU.

But remember, God is faithful. He’s not going to bring you this far just to leave you there. He’s going to carry you THROUGH the hard…

If you’ll let Him‼️

Quite honestly, that’s been the biggest lesson He’s been teaching me through what I’ve coined as my ‘Job season’ (referencing the story of Job in the Bible).

I do not succeed in my own strength.
I’m not ‘making it’ in my own strength.
I’m not ‘figuring it out’ in my own strength.

The only reason I’ve made it to this point is because HE is strong when I’ve been so weak.
HE picks me back up when I fall down.
HE reminds me what’s true when the lies sneak in.

Thank You, Jesus, for teaching me to depend on You!! The refining, pruning, and growing process is preparing me for whatever You have next.

Here’s to choosing SURRENDER 🙏🙌

And here’s to finding the rainbows just when we need reminding… He’s WITH us! 🥹

It's been 100 days since I made the decision to eliminate sugar from my diet 😲

I can't emphasize enough how critical it is to keep the promises we make to ourselves.

The ripple effect it has on the rest of our everyday life is limitless 🔥

The self-confidence, peace, and motivation to get up and do it again comes easier and easier with each passing day.

Even the simplest daily habit of making your bed or drinking 8oz of water as soon as you wake up can spur you on to make BIGGER waves in your life.

Now let me just say - there have been approximately 3 events since January 15th where I indulged in a treat for a worthy occasion. (It's ok to be human and ENJOY this life!!)

But I immediately return to my 'new normal' of no sugar the following day. Because it's serving me and my health goals, and I'm not giving that up!

What tiny daily habit can you start?
What promise can you make to yourself... and KEEP it going?

I can't wait to see the ripple effect it has on your life! 🙌🌱

Here's one simple step to move you toward your financial goals 💡

If you're like the majority of Americans, you're probably living paycheck to paycheck. Praying the car doesn't break down. Hoping the a/c unit pulls through another summer 🙏

Trust me, you're NOT alone.

But one thing I've learned over the years that is 100% true:

Hope is NOT a strategy 🙅‍♀️

If you fail to plan, you plan to fail!

This is where a budget comes into the picture 💡

Every dollar that comes into your bank account is given a name.
EVERY dollar!
Even those miscellaneous expenses that pop up every month (you know, the last minute kid's birthday gift, the Amazon package that magically landed on your doorstep 😅, the shoes your daughter needs for dance...).

When every dollar has a name, when every expense is accounted for BEFORE the month begins, you can begin the month ON PURPOSE.

With a plan.

And THAT is one simple step that moves you in the right direction toward your financial goals 👏

You've GOT this - I'm here to cheer you on!

Do you already use a budgeting app? Which one do you prefer?

“Death could not hold You
The veil tore before You
You silenced the boast, of sin and grave
The heavens are roaring the praise of Your glory
For You are raised to life again 🙌😭”

He is risen - risen indeed!!!

2024 ended very differently than it started.

For starters, I’m finally back to wearing my own hair 😆🎉
So thankful to be done with the wig life thanks to 👏

And then there’s the fact I was laid off.
But then God brought me a new job THE FIRST DAY I WAS OFFICIALLY UNEMPLOYED 😲🙌

As I’ve taken inventory of all that happened the past 365 days, one thought kept coming back to the surface:

I’ve neglected my health through all this hard 😬

Which led me to these questions:

What do I need to do differently in 2025?
What needs to stay?
What needs to go?

One thing became very clear in this process:

Spending time on social media doesn’t help me focus on improving my health in 2025 🙅‍♀️

As a result, I’m taking a ‘social sabbatical’ this year!

No posting.
No scrolling.
No stories.
No nothin!

I’m deleting IG and TT from my phone 👏

And I gotta say - I feel relieved. Energized. Expectant!For all that can and WILL change as I redirect my energy in 2025 🤗

So if you need to reach me, you won’t find me here 😅
If we’re connected in real life, let’s meet up for coffee or tea instead ❤️ (yes, I started drinking tea!!)

And until January 1, 2026, I bid you adieu ✌️

May many blessings be headed your way this year!! (And if YOU need permission to take a social break, feel free to use this as your sign 😘)

Why You’re Here

After having struggled with Nic’s po*******hy addiction in our home for most of our marriage, we decided to break the silence.

We have felt SO alone.

It felt like no one else was struggling with this addiction like we were. And for both of us, it felt hopeless - there seemed to be NO WAY OUT.

Because NO ONE talks about this. Sure, we heard the occasional encouraging and convicting sermon on the subject. But there was no couple we could turn to that could give BOTH of us advise. That could give BOTH of us hope. That could GIVE US A PROVEN PLAN to defeat this unwelcome guest in our home.
