It is now firmly into 2020, almost the middle of January and you know what that means? It’s time to get some writing done! As I gear up to start revisions again I thought you might like to see a list of the things I need to start writing. ☕️ Coffee – mmmm, coffee 📕…
Exercise. It can seem like a dirty word, right? Like a curse. I’ve never been that big on exercise. For example, in gym class as a kid, I would purposely get hit with the dodgeball so I could sit down. I was tall, uncoordinated, and fat. Starting in 2nd grade I was almost always the…
As you may (or may not know) I love setting 90-day goals – I started this in the fall of last year and it really did help me be more productive…until I wasn’t. That’s when I realized that I like having my goals mapped out for the quarter but only the first 3-4 tasks written…
Over the past few years, I have chosen 1-3 words to guide me along the path I want to take. Last year was Joy – which to be honest, felt a bit flat – like I was playing a part, superficial…never fully integrating into my body and my heart. The year before it was Courage…

I had the immense pleasure of being interviewed yesterday by my friend, Brenda Vander Zaden, for her Postpartum Body Series project. I had the best time talking about how much stronger I feel within my body after giving birth to my son – you can watch the Facebook Live HERE if you’d like! The other…
In my last article, I talked about the phrase “life’s purpose” and how I think it can sometime’s hold you back from doing the things that you love and care about. This week I want to talk about embracing the things you enjoy. In the same vein as last week, I really dislike the way…
Have you found your life’s purpose yet? Do you cringe when someone asks you this question? I still hate this question and I feel like I’m way closer to finding the answer than I was even 2-3 years ago…but who knows? My passions and dreams have changed so drastically in the 20 (what?!?!) years since…
I have written about my goal-setting process on here before, but as my life has changed and what I wanted out of my life changed, I knew I needed something different…but I wasn’t sure what. So, when one of my favorite AuthorTubers, Sarra Cannon – a brilliant and successful indie author and lovely human being…
