Let’s not let Pinterest-perfect holidays steal our joy.

I deleted Pinterest. 

They have 537M monthly users. Less one.

Scrolling through the...

Just checking in to see how our Thanksgiving experiment went…

Did you fall into the comparison trap?

Did you second guess yourself and your self-worth because of a social media post or because of somebody’s comment that might have been unkind?

To all of my clients, non-clients, followers, non-followers, friends, colleagues and fellow women:

Joy?  Let’s be honest, it’s not even in your top 10 things to do. You’ve got more important things to handle: the board meeting, the customer presentation, the imploding supply chain crisis (I mean shouldn’t we be done with this sh*& already?!), your boss wants to...

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I wanted to share something that would not only bring us love but also some JOY! For some, Valentine’s is a great day to celebrate someone they love, but for others it can be lonely and disheartening. I’ve definitely sat on both sides...

Picturesque Maine, known for a captivating coastline with world-class lobsters, a breathtaking mountain region, home to the Northeast’s greatest ski resorts and a portion of the Appalachian Trail.  People come from all over the world to visit and consume our little slice of God’s...

Ever find yourself questioning your dreams and your own audacity to even have them?  Then running through a list of reasons to squash them yourself?
