About Me

I’m married to an amazing husband, and together we’re raising two delightfully ornery little kids who are my absolute whole world. (Fun fact: the name of this blog actually comes from blending my kids’ middle names together! ❤️)

If you’re looking for a perfectly curated, Instagram-flawless life… you might be in the wrong corner of the internet! I’m not here to present perfection. I’m here to show you a real, unfiltered life—funny stories, messy days, and all—so that you never have to feel alone in your struggles.

What You’ll Find Here
Around here, we talk a lot about three big things:
🍼 Motherhood (the joy, the coffee, and the chaos)
📖 Faith (sharing what I’m studying, learning, and walking out in real life)
🧠 Mental Health (the real, honest, heart-to-heart stuff)

These three areas aren’t just topics to me—they are the core of my testimony and how my entire life changed for the better.

My Story: From Surviving to Surrender
I found God and accepted Him into my heart and home in March of 2025. Joshua 24:15 became our family’s anchor: “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
But to give it to you completely straight? Before that, I was a trainwreck.
I was on several different medications for severe anxiety and depression, and I was using alcohol and smoking just to numb my feelings. I wasn’t truly living—I was just surviving day by day, holding on by a thread. I tried to fix myself and clean up my own life more times than I could count, but I kept ending up in the same dark place.

Everything started to shift when I reached out to a faith-based counselor. That step led me through the doors of a church, which led me to accepting Jesus, and ultimately to getting baptized.

When I finally surrendered everything to God, something miraculous happened. The overwhelming want and need for those medications, the alcohol, and the smoking completely vanished. I have been 100% free of them ever since—something I could never do on my own strength.

Where I Am Today
Now, don’t get me wrong—I’m still human! I still have ups and downs. But I don’t find myself trapped in the trenches like I used to be. The hard days are handled so differently now. My heart and mind have found a deep peace, patience, kindness, love, and hope that I never thought was possible for me.

Shortly after I was baptized, God placed a heavy, beautiful calling on my heart: to help others who are standing right where I used to stand.

That calling was the spark that birthed this blog! It’s also why I am currently in school through Light University (partnered with the AACC) working toward my certificate to become a Faith-Based Mental Health Coach.

Welcome to the Family!
I’m here to write about my honest everyday life, share the Gospel as I learn more each day, laugh at the crazy moments, and offer empathy and encouragement to you.
Whatever heavy weight you’re carrying today, I want you to remember: there is hope, there is freedom, and you don’t have to walk through it alone.
Grab a cozy drink, stay a while, and let’s walk this out together!
