MOVE YOUR BODY!

My favorite pre-workout drink. Athletic Greens in my new favorite cup! I didn't always like working out. I'd much rather curl up with a book and a cup of tea  But we know that moving our body is so good for us, not just physically, but emotionally, and mentally as well. There were many years [...]

Why We Need to Stop Parenting Our Adult Children

As humans, we are a being that requires nurturing and care throughout our lives. Obviously, when we are babies and children the care of all our needs is provided by a parent or parental figure in our lives. But as we mature, in the teen years, we begin the slow progression of learning to care [...]

It’s Time to Retell Your Story

What's the first thing that comes to mind when you're asked about a painful story in your past? A breakup, a loss, an abandonment, a betrayal? It's time to RETELL your story! We all have different stories in our lives that we have told over and over and over again. We’ve told the same story [...]

How Coaching Changed My Life!

When my husband confessed he had been thinking of divorce, the first thing that flashed before me was a memory of being a little girl, standing in my parent’s bedroom, while my Dad told me he was moving out and that he didn’t love my mom anymore. I honestly hadn’t thought of that day in [...]

What if you could redefine PERFECT?

It's important to remind ourselves that God is the only truly perfect One. God doesn't expect perfection from us. Jesus did it so perfectly that we don't have to! We mamas tend to think we must be perfect at mothering otherwise we are failing. That we must never get frustrated with our littles and we [...]

This is just for NOW, not FOREVER!

This is a phrase that has personally helped me through some very challenging days. Sometimes you have to take a deep breath and tell yourself, everything is going to be ok. This is just for NOW, not FOREVER! You won't always feel this way. It's temporary. It's a season and seasons do change. Joy comes [...]

Your Business, Their Business, & God’s Business

Some people so enjoy drama that if they aren’t experiencing enough of their own, they tend to feed off of others. When you find yourself in a situation where others are relaying drama they’ve seen to you, you can choose to close your ears and mouth to it. Gossip cannot spread if it’s known to [...]

Are You Challenged By Your Relationship With Your Adult Child?

Have you ever made passive aggressive comments to your adult children when they call or spend time with you about how disappointed you are in how little they call you or spend time with you?  I get it. You’re hurt. You’re sad. You don’t know how you got to this place.  What you crave is [...]
