I've been keeping journals since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm so glad to share some of my most intimate life moments with you here! Here, you'll find inspirational and encouraging stories of me and other broken people like me. We are all jars of clay who have been afflicted in every way, but not crushed...struck down by not destroyed. Here, you do NOT have the right to remain silent, so as you read, grab your favorite snack and drink and leave a comment...share YOUR story. I can't wait to connect with you in this beautiful safe space.

It could have been her adorable short haircut. Or, it could have been the excitement I heard in her voice. Whatever it was about Vicky, just like her sister Jennie, I was drawn to her. The love she has for her sister is so beautiful to me. As the oldest of three daughters, I know how adventurous life […]
There’s something incredibly inspiring about seeing young women passionate about life. I feel like I’ve been saying that a lot lately, but I really do mean it. As a super passionate photographer, I fall in love with passionate people’s passion…The way their eyes light up when they talk about the thing they love and the […]
