Dear Friends, I got to speak to a group of Kindergarten students this week about the Dream Center. Here are few takeaways I have from that morning. I’ve never seen better behaved kindergarten students. Seriously these 4 teachers deserve gold stars, extra Starbucks coffee and major kudos because their kids were phenomenal the whole time.…
Dear Friends, You know that dream in your heart. The one you try to stuff away because there is just no way it can happen. You don’t have enough time or money or resources or knowledge or connections to see it come true. Well, hold on tight to it. Sit on it for a season…
Dear Friends, Do you remember what it was like when you went to your first ropes course and had to do the trust fall? I remember cheating. I would step up to catch people left and right. That’s the fun part. That part makes you feel like a real 7th grade hero when you get…
Dear Friends, It’s Thursday. My to-do list is still long, but I’m sitting here quietly in my living room while some sweet college girls do homework in various parts of the house. My heart is full (not to be confused with rested lol) because today I fought myself for the small victory. You see, I…
Dear Friends, As my sister Dana says on her blog today “It’s been a day or two since I’ve written.” It’s crazy how fast seasons, literal seasons of life, just seem to be FLYING by. I feel like the last few months have been the longest, slowest months EVER while also going by so FAST…

Hey Friends, It’s my bday. Whoop Whoop. I turned 28 today and have an official 28th year hashtag #28FeelingGreat I spent a lot of time (emphasis on A LOT) the last couple years figuring out how to get healthy, what healthy looked like and felt like for me and realizing it’s hard. This year is…
Dear Friends, If you haven’t figured it out yet, I want immediate results. I’m the worst at being consistent over a long period of time and waiting for change. Just this week I was talking with a friend who is a super athlete. I was whining that after working out for a week and following…
Dear Friends, I really didn’t expect a book to smack in the face the same way “7” did – but then I remembered that I’ve had Brene Brown’s book for MONTHS now and have been avoiding it. Why? Because she talks about vulnerability and growth and living a wholehearted life and to read that books…
