Hello, friends! It’s been an unusual week for me so I’m sorry I missed my usual Monday post. I am back today for a “Quote of the Week” and some thoughts about it. Thanks for being here. Today I want to talk about words. You probably know that I am a big fan of words, […]

Choosing Joy
Happy Friday, everyone! This past week I’ve started reading Bob Goff’s book Undistracted. I love the voice he writes in – it’s both simple and profound, challenging but loving. He offers relatable insight into life and the work of finding joy. The quote I am sharing today focuses on the ability to choose joy and […]
Capabilities & Callings
Hey friends! I was listening to the Dream Big podcast this week and heard something that has been stuck in my brain ever since. I decided it would be the words I share this week for my Quote of the Week. This really hit home for me in more areas of my life than I […]
Use Money to Embrace Joy
Let’s talk about MONEY. Some people say it makes the world go ‘round. Others say it doesn’t matter how much or how little you have… it’s always a problem. I didn’t grow up hearing a lot about our financial situation, but I know I always had enough to eat, clothes to wear, and a warm […]

Running For My Life
It was May 2010 and I was in the 12th mile of my first ever half marathon race. EVERYTHING in me wanted to give up and have the medic vehicle take me to the finish line. I was so hot, so tired, and my legs were cramping up. I did not think I could take […]

A Harry Potter movie I’ve seen countless times is playing softly in the background. I sit here checking emails and researching things, a vast world available to me from […]
