Never stop working on yourself
Never stop working on yourself.
Physically, mentally, spiritually.
I know personally the past year has been a year of tremendous growth!
I’ve faced obstacles that no one should have to battle, but those obstacles have become easier by growing closer to God.
Every day I choose to focus on the things I am grateful for and what ways can I grow.
So, set those goals, surround yourself with positivity, seek out new experiences and challenges, and don’t forget to celebrate along the way!
working from home-
or anywhere you want!
That’s the dream isn’t it? WORK FROM HOME!!
To not have a set schedule, to work when you want, not have a micromanager breathing down your back.
Impossible right? Wrong.
How about not having to miss work when your kid is sick? Or want to go to a soccer game or an awards assembly?
Go on vacation and not have to use PTO?
My favorite… have more time to share the gospel, and even incorporate it into my business!! Our God is amazing and anything that lets me glorify Him even more is honestly worth it.
I’m not making stuff up. It’s real, and anyone can do it.
I used to worry about how I was going to pay my bills, but not anymore. And I’m changing other peoples lives in the process. How amazing is that?
It’s 90% mindset, 10% skill set.
What do you have that’s holding you back? This is your sign to let whatever it is, go and follow your dreams!!
I’d love to share how I work from home for additional streams of income and talk about how it could impact your life.

Treat yo’self
During motherhood we have been trained to put ourselves and our health LAST.
We literally go through the hardest thing, making a whole human being, and are expected to put all of our wants and needs after everyone else’s.
That is doable for a little while, but not sustainable.
How are we expected to take care of tiny humans if we don’t take care of ourselves regularly?
I don’t mean just a shower alone or going to the grocery store by yourself.
I mean doing a self evaluation on your physical, emotional, and spiritual necessities and doing what you need to do.
It’s a hard lesson to learn and I want to help y’all learn it way before I did!!
So, first easy step is to close your eyes and think about one thing that would help you that you haven’t been able to do since beginning your mom role, or haven’t been able to do nearly enough.
Is it a trip to the gym? Pedicure? Coffee with a friend? A date with your spouse? Appointment with your counselor? Splurge on some health supplements or a new outfit? Buying your favorite protein powder instead of the crap at the stores to save a buck? There’s no wrong answer. the only wrong answer is doing nothing.
Second step is a little harder. What can you do to make this happen? Asking a grandparent to watch the kids for a bit? Hire a babysitter? Look for a gym with a kids zone? Get creative in order to make it happen!
I would love to bounce ideas around with you to help you to reach your goal. I know sometimes when things get crazy, everything seems impossible and overwhelming. I can help talk things through with you.
However you are feeling, you are not alone. Drop a comment below with your one ☝️ thing you would like to do or “need some help” if you need help figuring it out.

I’m looking for….
Day 4 of self care
Self care
We always focus on New Year resolutions every year. But I have something better for you.
Let’s end the old year right so that we don’t even need to make a resolution for January 1st.
I’m leading YOU in a five day self care challenge.
Now, don’t let the word “challenge” scare you. The tasks aren’t difficult. But it will get you out of your normal routine and get you to take care of all aspects of your body in the last 5 days of the year.
We need to go out with a bang!
I’ll post each days challenge on here so you can keep up with loving yourself.
Hit the follow so you don’t miss a day!
And brownie points if you comment with what you chose to do to take care of yourself each day.

New me in 2023
Just imagine, January 1st comes and you feel ready and prepared for a new year!
For growth and change to really take root there needs to be change that takes place outside of simple action.
If you are looking to walk into the new year ready to make big changes but want to make sure you are prepared, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, as well as physically we have a simple challenge just for you!
We are kicking off our Mommy Matters group with a Self Care focused five day challenge that will help you prepare for the new year.
We know that as moms, our own wellness is often the last thing we consider. But imagine all the ways your motherhood can improve if you really start feeling your best.
Simply like this post and drop a comment saying “add me” and I will get you added!!

Writers block(ed) by life
My head isn’t really in it (this blog) this week.
Because life.
Because I’m a full time working mom with a baby that still gets up every 2 hours at night.
I’m tired, I’m spread thin, and I’m just barely making it.
Laundry needs to be put away, dishes done, toys picked up, etc etc etc. The list of things to do is always there, it’s just a bit longer than usual right now.
I’m currently writing this while nursing my daughter. There’s always something to do. So this page has to go to the back burner. I have tiny humans who need me. A husband who needs me present. A God that needs me to study his word and spread the Good News to the world. Can there be more hours in the day???
If you are feeling overwhelmed and have 649372939 things you need to do.. you are not alone. and I’m here to tell you it’s okay! It won’t always feel like this. YOU GOT THIS.
Side note; the podcast I follow and listen to regularly posted this and I just listened to it. And HOW fitting is it?? Give yourself grace. I want y’all to listen to it if you are struggling with anything right now.
In other news, I’m going to be starting this awesome exercise and meal program next week (hopefully). Its included free with the company I get my health supplements from so I am excited about all the perks with no extra cost. That definitely takes a weight off of me. Cause who can really afford anything extra these days.
I think I’m done with my rant.. for now!
Anyone interested in doing this 12 week workout plan with me? It’s always easier (and funner) when you have an accountability partner.
Love you guys, thanks for sticking with me. Next posts will be better I promise!
