Finished with her first nine weeks of 1st grade and now on the way to the beach! She is a good friend, a hard worker, keeps everyone laughing and we’re so so so proud of her. What an absolute gift she is to us!

I’m truly, deeply grateful the intense heat seem

‘Tis the season for pumpkins to roll around my porch and never stay in the same place all Fall long! Whitney and Lily’s best tip for keeping your mums looking great—buy inexpensive ones so it doesn’t cost as much to replace them each time they die 😉👌

Will calls this @lakepajamas Relax Set my leisure suit, and indeed, I do feel like a lady of leisure in it! It is SO soft and I know I’ll wear it for years. It’s so cozy for fall and makes the most thoughtful gift (for a friend or for yourself😉).

Anxiety, stress, and worry can feel so hard. Here are a few verses I’ve found encouraging during my own seasons of anxiety. I hope they’re an encouragement to you as well!

Head to the link in my bio for a free download of several more of my favorite verses. I hope you have a great week!

This is my friend @courtneyc_mousecounselor. She lives over in Georgia, but we text and voice message nearly everyday. Three and a half years ago I was in a hard place, working from home seeing clients over tele-health during covid. My life was suddenly full of a lot of really hard things, but like so many others during that time I was missing many of the things that bring me joy.

I’d seen a girl named Courtney share some earrings I liked around that time and somehow we started messaging. One day Courtney messaged me and asked if I’d like to join her and few others in a group post. I had no idea what that was and had to secret message her to make sure I was doing it correctly. But I did succeed in participating in the group post and it gave me a little project to work on and that gave me some life. It also gave me my first internet friend.

I’m still talking with the ladies from that very first group share nearly daily. Many of you saw that we got to travel to Cape Cod together last summer. I’ve never forgotten that Courtney is the one who first invited me in, because she’s the kind of person who’s always ready to make room for another. She’s the ultimate cheerleader, never forgets to check on you in hard times, and knows what really matters.

If you enjoy following me then you’ll certainly enjoy her, so I hope you’ll head over and follow @courtneyc_mousecounselor. She’s really close to hitting 10k, which doesn’t actually matter at all, but it’s nice when this is something you’ve worked hard on for awhile.

@courtneyc_mousecounselor is a person of real faith and wisdom. I genuinely think about making room for others in a different way because of her. I’m so very thankful for my first internet friend 💕

How do I find a therapist that’s right for me?

How do I find a therapist that’s right for me?

Since the chaos of 2020 it seems like I’ve seen a great many social media posts, often written by professionals, normalizing experiencing difficulties. This is good–this info is kind, compassionate, and accurate. It helps us know we aren’t alone.

But the thing is, we can’t just stop indefinitely when we’re not ok and I don’t mean that callously. I hope you can for a couple of days or weeks. I hope you can take some things off your plate. I hope you can call in some help.

While it’s totally ok and normal to have really hard seasons, there are ultimately things we eventually HAVE to do to function–feed kids, pay bills, do laundry, go to work. But more importantly, we want to find joy in our lives that are still full of so much good despite hard things. And this might be where finding a good therapist comes in.

I wrote this guide a couple of years ago to help answer some questions I’m commonly asked. What exactly is a therapist? How do I find one? What if I don’t have insurance?

I hope this info empowers and encourages a few of you to reach out for the help you may desperately need. I promise promise promise–there is always hope for healing.

Find my guide at the link in my bio or in stories. I’d love for you to share if you think this may help someone else💕
