welcome
I’m a girly-girl living in a testoster-HOME with four darling sons and my husband Guy — who happens to be my partner in all things in life.
Born and raised in California, I love the combination of city life and outdoor living that is ideal for a Boy-Mom who is raising men.
Raised in a home that taught the Bible, table manners, and a love for the beach, I find myself passing those ideals on to the next generation. (Though with four sons, table manners are always a work in progress!)
More than anything, I want to live up to my God-given potential. And I want that for my friends, family, readers, and clients too! That’s why I write about gentle parenting, thriving marital relationships, and how to live a healthy lifestyle — all with practical and biblical truth!
Personally, my most cherished moments are when I’m reading and praying in my hammock, sipping sparkling water, while talking on the phone with a close friend, or spending long slow days at the beach with my family to rest and rejuvenate.
My other passion is writing and coaching. If God can use my journey to bless and encourage others, then I’ll feel like I’m fulfilling my purpose — and that potential I mentioned earlier!
I hope and pray that by getting to know me and the things God has put on my heart to share, your life will be a little more blessed and a lot more hope-filled!
In sharing my story with you, I want you to know that I’ve walked through some challenging seasons where I didn’t know who to turn to for guidance and support.
While I’ve always known to rely on God and seek His wisdom first, I also know He gave His children the blessing of community to help us grow and to come alongside us with sound advice rooted in Biblical truth and insight. In those seasons, I needed a wise friend who could guide my heart along the journey.
But, I couldn’t always find that friend. Sometimes, embarrassment or fear kept me from reaching out and seeking support from those around me. Other times, I simply didn’t have anyone in my circle that could speak to my struggles with sincerity, honesty, and objectivity.
Often, I felt very alone.
If your heart is heavy today like mine has been, I want you to know three things:
The practical resources and tools I’ve created and curated are designed to help you work through those places where you are feeling stuck.
My style of coaching and writing is aimed at empowering you to take ownership of your story.
The heart behind everything I do is positioned to encourage you along the journey — through each difficult roadblock and every mountain-top victory!
