A Message From Someone Who's Been There

If you've found your way to these articles, you're likely navigating one of life's most challenging transitions. The end of a marriage can leave you feeling lost, overwhelmed, and uncertain about what comes next, especially when you're balancing your own healing with the needs of your children and rebuilding your life.

I've walked this path myself, and I know the weight of starting over. That's why I've written these articles: to share what I've learned about moving through divorce, not just with survival in mind, but with the possibility of genuine transformation.

Your story isn't over. In fact, this may be the beginning of discovering who you truly are and what you're capable of creating. Through these pieces, I aim to provide you with insights, encouragement, and practical guidance for this journey.

You don't have to figure it all out alone. Whether you're in the early stages of separation or years into rebuilding, these articles are here to remind you that healing is possible, growth is possible, and you absolutely can thrive.

Welcome to a space where your experience is understood and your future is full of possibility.

ties that bind

Father’s day can be a day chalked full of all sorts of emotions!

Whether we have a wonderful earthly father or not, we have the example of the kind of love that binds all ties together, that restores and heals brokenness, and will seek the lost to bring them home.

We all share one father whose love is perfect and will never fail us.

Our Abba Father’s name is Jesus.

this is the day

“This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24

True joy should never be dependent upon our circumstances. Many of us know this in our heads, but walking it out in times of trial, or even trying to on a daily basis is a whole other story.
