Ever been at a hard place in your life and felt guilty for momentarily feeling joy and happiness because of this one huge thing you are still grieving? Me, too. To be honest, some days I'm still there. And you know what? That's okay. Grief often comes in waves and when they no longer hit [...]

How to BE where you are
Have I ever mentioned how much I love New York in the fall?! With all her many faults (like snow for 6 months of the year, high taxes, and crazy liberal ideals) she sure shines in autumn, I tell ya! There have been so many times we’ve thought of bailing, begged God for a different assignment, [...]
Ever feel SHAME over NOT feeling full of JOY & PEACE?
ONE: Remember that God made us overcomers and that means that we WILL have things to OVERCOME, right? TWO: We shouldn't feel guilt or shame over experiencing sadness, anxiety, or despair as there are plenty of examples in the Word that speak to this. THREE: The key is that God doesn't want us to stay [...]
Free To Choose
You've probably heard it said that life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond to it. And how we respond is usually how our brains have been wired to respond. One of the most important things my life coach taught me was that our THOUGHTS will ALWAYS create our RESULTS. Not [...]
Are You Ready For A Fresh Start?
There's nothing like a new season approaching to get your wheels turning. It's a new beginning. A fresh start is right around the corner. It feels like anything is possible, and the truth is, it is.

When You Tell Yourself You’re Not Interested in Sex
I showed my husband the title of this new post and his response was “What? Why would you ever tell yourself that? God created us to want sex.” But, I’m sure you’ve been there, Sis. I have, too. Because we all have human brains that try to convince us of things that are just not [...]
What’s Your Super Power?
There are so many myths about life coaching. Isn’t it just for celebrities and professional athletes or multi-millionaire CEO’s? Do I really need to pay someone to help me with my issues? Truth is you’ve most likely already hired a “coach” and just didn’t realize it. That gym membership with the personal trainer, the algebra [...]
Do Not Be Afraid
The Lord never promised us that this life would be easy or free of hardships and difficulties. While we are not OF this world, we do live IN this world, and it is a broken world. There is plenty of beauty and plenty of terrible to be witnessed. I believe it is the stark contrast [...]
Let’s Chat!
Are you a mom of littles who is so passionate about mothering them well but also afraid to admit you feel burnt out? I CAN HELP! Are you an empty-nester (or almost) and feel stuck in the thought loop of "what's next" because you haven't allowed yourself to keep dreaming about all that God has [...]
Calling All Mamas!
As a former stay-at-home and veteran homeschool mama, I know full well that as mamas, WE set the tone for our homes and even our kids attitudes. When we are excited about something it stirs their excitement! Living in the northeast, where nice weather is fleeting, summertime with my kiddos was always so fun, as [...]
