Often the first quarter of life is all about you; growing, learning, maturing, discovering your gifts. Raising children typically takes another quarter of your life.

What if LOVE is the Answer?
What if my only job was to LOVE? It seems my focus would then shift to MYSELF and keeping MYSELF within the bounds of my TRUE SELF. The one which was produced IN ME, by the power of the Holy Spirit at the new birth. The old has PASSED AWAY and I am now a [...]
Ready to REST and INVEST?
The high value of having a coach is to have someone in your life who can see YOU being YOU! Somebody you don’t have to perform a function for. Somebody that you don’t have to be a wife for, or a mother for, or a leader for, or an employee for, or a child for. [...]
Look Who Decided to BLOOM!
Look who decided to BLOOM on Easter! I’ve never been great with indoor plants, but I’ve kept this girl alive for 10 years! And that makes me proud. I just keep showing up for her.

When you realize the ordinary moments are actually opportunities to be seen as extraordinary, your brain releases chemicals of oxytocin, dopamine, endorphins, and serotonin. They wash over you, lowering cortisol and relaxing you. Hugging and snuggling your littles releases [...]
Want to Cultivate More Everyday Magic in Your Mothering?
Years ago someone saw me snuggling up with my daughter and said, “Oh, you’re a cozy mama.” I thought to myself, “Yes! Yes, I am.” “Cozy” is my ultimate aesthetic 🥰 Even in real life, with the chaos of littles underfoot, and a lived-in home, “cozy” is what I want to feel. Cozy home. Cozy [...]
