My dream of wanting to go on a holistic wellness retreat came true! Here’s a video about my experience at Civana Wellness Resort and Spa in Carefree, Arizona.

The Last…
Please join me in praying for all of those impacted by Hurricane Ian! We are so fortunate to not have been burdened with this storm but many in our state cannot say the same. Mother Nature is no joke and I’m fortunate to have dodged this storm.
The Last…
How was your March? Do anything fun or accomplish anything big? I want to hear all about it. Here are my ‘lasts’ of March… Tell me some of your lasts…
But have you prayed about it?
So often we have thoughts that feel like they’re taking over all of the space in our brains. Some of the latest for me has been thinking about kindergarten and next best steps academically for our daughter, but that’s a story for another time. We talk about these things with our partners, our parents, our …

I Didn’t Pray For You
I didn’t grow up daydreaming about my wedding and the many little babies I couldn’t wait to have. I didn’t fantasize about every detail with my dress and my dad walking me down the aisle. I didn’t pray for God or the Universe to bless me with a family and think about how I wanted …
Numbered Days
This verse stuck in my mind during today’s service at Echo Life Church. Pastor Joe was discussing how to get the stress out and highlighted this verse as a reminder to adjust our pace (watch or listen to the whole service here). But as we participate in our third funeral of the year it makes …
Peace
I know there are many verses like this one but this spoke to me during my morning devotional. I struggle with an anxious mind, feeling trapped in my head, over analytical thinking, self-doubt, confusion, worry. I often feel as though my brain betrays me and hurts me. I know I’m not unique or special in …
HOLY SHIFT
How many times does God have to nudge you before you actually listen? Or how often do you ask for something and God drops it in your lap and then you question if it’s the right thing for you or not? My husband and I found ourselves in this type of situation a few weeks …
