Hello there, and welcome…
I hope you find this place to be a cool cup of water for your thirsty soul.
We all have unquenchable thirst in us at times… a thirst for more intimate friendships and connection, a thirst for answers to our average–ordinary–everyday questions, a thirst to feel seen and heard in an ever-increasingly disconnected world, a thirst deep within us to feel healed and whole.
I talk a lot about my own personal struggles with life, love, anger, and motherhood. I talk about my very personal journey in discovering the Creator of the universe as Love and Goodness, rather than judgment and punishment.
My own journey, more than likely mirrors yours, and this is a place we can safely explore all the questions, uncertainties, and often traumas that life has to offer us. We are in this together, and together is how we overcome our daily struggles. I have found I don’t need all of the answers. I just need others to walk alongside me, the reassurance that I am not alone. Don’t you feel that too at times?
We all struggle in one form or another, whether it’s with anger, shame, jealousy, finances, our children, or our husbands; those places that we tend to hide from the outside world. My desire is that we could find the courage together, to come out from the shadows and be real about our struggles and celebrate those things within us that seem like weakness, but in actuality, might just be our greatest strengths.
There is so much beauty in our brokenness, and together we can discover the beauty in others as we uncover the beauty within ourselves.
Won’t you join me in the journey back to loving ourselves and others?

It’s cold, wet, dark, and dreary. The wind is not gentle but feels assaulting as the raindrops splatter against my face. It’s unrelenting. I cannot seem to move as my duck boots are stuck in the sinking mud. My feet feel heavy as led,…

When You Find Yourself Teetering Between Faith and Uncertainty
It seems as though we have been in a season of uncertainty. We humans don’t care for uncertainty much do we? We like a clear plan, lists that work out, assurance of security. Normally, I will wait until I’m on the other side of…

to the mom who struggles with being a safe place
“You’re supposed to be my safe place!” My six year old screamed, as she ran away from me. She had been holding something in her hands and I asked her to give it to me. She refused. In that moment I thought, “oh no…
