"Love begins at home, and it's not how much we do...but how much love we put into that action" - Mother Theresa "I cannot people today, mom". That's an actual text I sent my mom yesterday morning. Blurry eyes attempting to focus on the figure in my doorway - an impossible feat without my glasses. … Continue reading 5MF – Family

I'm 29 years old. A Christ-follower. LMFT-Candidate, counselor/coach.
Chronically single - until Feb 10, 2018 when I married my Love.
I have a passion for using writing to spread a message of faith, love, and healing to young people across the country. Much like everyone else, I have always dabbled in a lot of things. But, I’ve always had two main passions: Writing and Helping others overcome circumstances to live meaningful, fulfilled lives.
Home for my Calling
I am an introvert. By nearly every definition and example. Headphones in? Check. Door closed? Check. Book or movie in front of me? Check. Whatever I can do to secure absolute alone time, especially in the wee hours of the night, when the world is at it's darkest and quietest. That's my time. My heart … Continue reading Home for my Calling
Visiting Home
She pulled up to the large building - a mostly brick facade that had clearly experienced many add-ons and renovations over the years. She looked at the clock, 9:25. Five minutes until the start of service. She quickly grabbed her purse and walked through the packed parking lot to the back to the church. She … Continue reading Visiting Home
#LovelySunday – HOPE
"Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life." - Proverbs 13:12 I did it. I packed up my life, loaded as much of it into my car as would fit, and drove across country with my mom. Back to a place I never thought I'd call home again. … Continue reading #LovelySunday – HOPE
#WorkitWednesday – Defining Moment
I know it's the wee hours of Thursday morning, I just didn't have the chance to write this on yesterday. I was hoping to be able to combine it with the theme of Tuesday @ 10, and I think it works well: Defining Moment See, I've recently been really ill. (Aside from getting over a nasty cold) … Continue reading #WorkitWednesday – Defining Moment

Just over 9 years ago, I graduated high school, packed up my life, and left Oklahoma to return to the sunny shores of California.

Another Letter to Me
I have been away again...though, I have a few posts written & ready, I have been hesitant to share them, and I am not completely sure why. So, I'm back for Tuesday @ 10. The theme this week is: "If I Could Write a Letter to Past Me..." Some of my readers know I did this a while … Continue reading Another Letter to Me
Encounters
I was originally hoping this would be part of Five Minute Friday, but I missed the link date...But, used the prompt anyway. Also linked up with this week's Tuesday @ 10. The prompts gleaned were: Favorite & "I truly believe...": "The LORD your God is with you. He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you. He … Continue reading Encounters
Living the Dream
It has been so long, I feel, since I have written. It has been about a month...and I feel a little like I have fallen off the face of the planet. I have spent the month buried in books, finishing paper, wrapping up paperwork, terminating with clients, training at my new job, and teaching kids … Continue reading Living the Dream
Lessons Learned…
So, I've been on a bit of a hiatus lately...not quite intentional, it's just that I have so much other stuff with school (graduation in 4 weeks) & starting a new job & trying to keep a "social life"... But, I work upnights, and as I've finished my most pressing homework assignment, and have some … Continue reading Lessons Learned…
