52-Card Pickup

“I’m terrified. Absolutely terrified. My whole life has become a cruel game of 52-card pickup. Every aspect of my life has been thrown in the air and I don’t know where they will land. I want to crawl in a hole and pretend that none of this is happening. It’s too much for me to […]

You Are Not Broken!

You are not broken! One of the leaders in the supplement company I’ve been working with said this and it really stuck with me. How many of us have felt like WE are the broken ones. Not a narcissist partner, not a system; not the world we live in, but us. I’m here to tell […]

The Dead End Road

Caregiving is a dead end road. Before the brain tumor diagnosis things were not going well between my husband and I. We had been married for 19 years. We had survived infidelity, bankruptcy, and a plethora of bad decisions. But the toll had been paid. There was no intimate connection. No shared interests. He had […]

Birthing Authenticity & Self-Love

What I thought would destroy me actually birthed my authenticity and self-love. The month that we discovered that my husband had brain cancer, I thought it was the absolute end of my world. The seven years of what I called The Uninvited Journey was a personal hell that brought about the death of every hope […]

Cleaning Out

I’m a fairly task-oriented person. Even when I’m doing something people-focused, it’s still a task in my head. I like systems, logic, and organization. When I organize something, I have a very particular way I like to do it. First I empty the thing out completely. It doesn’t matter if it’s a drawer, a closet, […]

No Religion, Just God.

Our lives are so busy! Schedules, tasks, responsibilities, obligations and more take up all of our time. How can we even hope to hear God’s voice in all the noise? We barely have time for self care or hobbies, let alone quiet time with God. However, hearing His voice is vital to our survival in this […]

Joy In Change

As summer turns to fall, it’s easy to look at the around and believe summer is hanging on. But look at the green grass and see the brown lying beneath. Look at the leaves and see the beginnings of the change of color. Look up in the sky past the birds singing their songs and spot a few geese […]
