are my favorite! Especially when you throw in a leaf peepin’ drive, a flight of coffee and this guy! Btw his drink is a Frozen PB Hot Chocolate and yes, it was amazing! If you haven’t checked out for breakfast, you are missing out! ☕️✈️

My favorite thing in the whole wide world, besides spending time with my beautiful daughters, is seeing them laugh together. This moment, which stemmed from a very funny story, overflows my heart with so much happiness. You are never too old to be silly with your sister. ❤️

Plans for the weekend involve napping, eating, hiking, and snuggling. If you could only pick two of those, which would they be? That’s a hard one! Maybe hiking and snuggling? Or napping and eating? I guess it depends on the day. Today I’m feeling like napping and snuggling…and I think Daisy would agree. ❤️

Giving up drinking is the best thing I’ve ever done for myself, ever! It has elevated my life physically, mentally, and emotionally. It has allowed me to connect with myself on a higher level, deepen my relationships, and experience fun and happiness in a way I didn’t know existed when I drank!

On this day, I raise my ice coffee and toast to teetotaling…CHEERS!

“I hope you find the courage to change your life. In the small ways, in the big ways, in every way that matters. I hope you do not end this story with a heart full of regrets. I hope you do not spend your years just waiting for your life to begin. I hope you realize that this is not the practice run, this is not the preview. This is it. There is nothing to do but leap. There is nothing to do but to allow yourself to exist as boldly and honestly as you can. You will think you have forever but you do not. It all happens, and it happens quickly. You are not waiting on another person, or the right timing, or for everything to fall into place. You are waiting to feel ready enough to exist within the questions, to not need every answer, and to know that this life does not come to us to be perfectly understood but to be fully experienced, in every direction we can possibly reach.” -Brianna Wiest

When you have a long, emotional talk with your angels and then this appears the next morning. The universe really does have your back, you just need to speak to it. Thanks for listening. ❤️

Happy Monday Beautiful Beings! ❤️

How are you all doing? No really, how are you? Do you feel like you’d like to add more calm and peace into your day to day life? Would you like to have a clearer mind and a better understanding of all the thoughts that compete for space in your head? Do you want to feel more inspired and creative? Would you like to improvise your memory? Did you know the simple act of “brain dumping” aka JOURNALING can do all that and more?!!

When I share with people that I journal every day, I hear the same responses over and over again...“That’s so great that you do that every day, I would love to do that.” The next statement is usually “I just don’t know what to write about.”

I’ve created this FREE 30 Day Self-Reflective Journaling Guide to help you add this holistic practice into your day and receive all the great benefits that come with it. ❤️

I love to journal. It’s like a therapy session with myself every day. The great thing about it is that you are writing for yourself. No one else will be reading it. And allowing yourself to be as honest as possible with how you’re feeling will result in the many benefits journaling can give. In this guide I’m not only included 30 days of writing prompts but I’ve also shared the top reasons why it’s so important to add this daily practice into your life. 🧘🏼‍♀️

As we kick off the new month let’s be intensional with adding this simple but powerful practice into our day. Whether your schedule allows for 5 or 50 minutes, journaling with prompts can be an easy addition with great benefits.

I believe we always have a knowing.  When we feel caught in a space of uncertainty and feel unsure of which path to take; I believe that in our hearts...we know.  We know what we want but we are so scared to admit it.  We stay silent while our beautiful dreams stay buried inside us wanting so ba...

Nothing is more contagious than the uninhibited, authentic laughter of a child who is having fun.

Here I am…it’s 1979 and I’m hanging out with my dad and the Westfield Jaycees in front of Ames as they ask for donations for the city’s annual fireworks at Whitney Field. I love remembering those days and the simplicity of what brought me joy and happiness. At five years old, my favorite things to do during the summer were swimming, riding my bike, roller skating, climbing trees, camping, having sleepovers, getting a Happy Meal from McDonalds…the list goes on and on and on.

Remember when laughing and playing was your pass time and everything else was just the static in between? How many of you would love to go back and relive one of the summers’ of your youth? When in your mind, the summer seem to last just as long as the school year. Remember that? What was your favorite part of that way back when?

In a world with so many uncertainties, I feel gratitude for the calm and peace I get from the time spent with my dogs. Thank you Lola and Daisy. 🙏🏼❤️
