Questions for Reflection & Discernment and Processing 2025
Looking Toward 2026 Less is more. That’s the thing. That’s my main take-away from 2025. Every year, Emily P. Freeman (podcaster and author) puts out “10 Questions for Reflection & Discernment,” and I love to answer these questions each year as a reflection of my previous year and the beginning of a new year. What…

My Dream Life
I’ve been writing on Substack, and I don’t think I like it. It feels much less like ME and less personal. I don’t know why it feels that way. Maybe because I’ve had this blog for a lot of years! But anyway. I think I’m going to write here again. I have a lot on…

One Day at a Time
I feel like every time I write, big things have happened in between posts. My life is never boring; that’s for sure. I will say that the most recent things that have been going on have been really good. I’m feeling more and more peace each day. I have honestly been a bit disconnected from…

Finding Personal Agency in Habits… One Day at a Time
These past several months have felt extremely heavy. Many of the things that have been going on aren’t things I can share about publicly, but I have been carrying a lot. Most days I wonder if I will ever have longer “good” seasons. I feel like the majority of my adulthood has been one trial…

Life Lately
I found out Wednesday that the reason I was still feeling bad (it kept getting worse) is that I had strep in addition to the flu! The benefit of it being strep is that I could take an antibiotic! After less than 24 hours on it, I felt so much better. I’m still not 100%…

Learning To Be More Intentional
I have been trying to write a blog post for days. It has felt nearly impossible because I’ve had the flu. It just won’t go away! Because of this, my thoughts are kind of all over the place. I keep going to bed hoping that I will wake up feeling better the next day, then…

Clarity
Every single day, I feel more and more clarity in my mind and heart. It’s really hard to put into words. On a normal day, even in my “good seasons,” there is a heaviness, anxiety, and fear that is just always there. It’s like my brain is always scanning and trying to figure out what…

No Longer Shrinking Myself
After four doses of my new medication, I’ve already started to feel noticeably better. I didn’t think that was possible because I have read it can take up to 2-6 weeks. But then I googled and realized that a lot of people noticed a difference almost right away (especially if they were in a depressive…

Letting Go of Fear, One Minute at a Time
My mental health honestly exhausts me. Monday, I felt so good. I had done a hard hike, spent time in God’s ceration with my hubby, and the weather was perfect. I had a weird night of sleep that night (as usual). I tend to have vivid dreams most nights. I sleep “enough,” but it’s not…

Back to Wild + Free Mama
I have been working on revamping my blog (again). I let the paid version go because I didn’t want to pay for it since I didn’t make money. After that happened, I realized that I wasn’t ready to let it go. I had a 30% off coupon code, so I paid for the premium version…
