With my personal coach’s program we do cycles of 90-day goals…but more important than the goal are the thoughts I will need to be thinking to generate the feelings that will drive my action toward the goal I have.

When Motherhood Doesn’t Look Like You Thought It Would
Has your husband ever come home to walk past your kids, while they are on the couch in front of the TV, to find you in your bed crying just so you could have a break and cry in private? Me, too! I get it. You're overwhelmed, and overstimulated, and tired, and one of your [...]
What are you making your kids behavior mean about YOU?
https://videopress.com/v/eBE9uIfs?resizeToParent=true&cover=true&preloadContent=metadata&useAverageColor=true It’s so easy to make "motherhood" an idol in our lives.

But we do not get to control our kids’ outcomes, whether they are 8 or 28. The [...]
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.

For the Mama navigating a challenging relationship with a child
Are you challenged by your relationship with your child? I think we can all agree that God is the PERFECT parent. He carefully fashioned these two beloved children, giving them the very best of Himself and then placed them in the most beautiful, peaceful, and perfect environment where they could flourish. Every need was fully [...]
Bring the JOY back to your mothering!
Did you know that your child’s, teen's, or adult child’s behavior is a result of a feeling they don’t know how to deal with? Just like our actions come from a feeling we are having and a negative thought that is causing that feeling. We may not be able to be in their head to [...]
Motherhood is a Lifelong Journey
Motherhood is a lifelong journey...there will be ups and downs and the downs don't mean you are failing, they mean you are human. It's the challenging seasons that show us how resilient we are and how faithful God is. My coach always says, "This is the part where you GET to be the Mom." Motherhood [...]
Let Go & Be FREE!
The prison door is always open for us, but we must choose to walk through! When things have been one way for so long, the familiarity can cause a strange sense of false comfort. You get used to being in a constant state of fight or flight or survival mode. But we cannot heal without [...]
