If my younger self could see me now, I know she would be amazed and proud of who we have become. All the battles fought, all the dreams we had, all the heartache and struggles. God always had a plan and he is always faithful to see it through. Younger me would smile knowing that we made it. I don’t think she could’ve fathomed where life took her and the opportunities she’s had or that she would actually write a book and make a difference. I thank God for interrupting my path at 23 and redeeming me. Without Him, I wouldn’t be where I am today. 🤍 and I hope my life can be a testimony and encouragement for you to not give up and to seek God. He has a plan for you I promise and you’re never too far gone for him to use you!
A prayer for this season for whenever may need it 💛 If you need more of Gods peace and his presence during this holiday season, this prayer is for you. I know this time of year can bring so many emotions both good and bad. It brings higher tensions and sometimes we forget to include Jesus. Let this prayer be yours this season. Comment a 💛 if you need this prayer.

Do you or anyone you know want to write a book? Have you ever considered self publishing? It’s a great avenue to get any type of book out into the world on your own timing and with you as the boss of all the decisions! When I self published in 2018, I began getting asked frequently how did I do it. I’ve helped many people over the years one on one to self publish their books and now I created an entire course so I can help more people at once. And for the holidays, now through the end of this year, I’m offering 30% off! Normally the course is $147, but if you use the code “holidays” when you check out you can get 30% off! And let me tell you I left nothing out of this course. It has every single step you need and more to get your book self published with budget handouts and resources to help you find editors and designers (ps I also offer coaching and design services too for publishing).
You could use this course to help publish a children’s book, a novel, a journal, a cookbook, a Christian book, a devotional, a leadership book and so much more! Or if you want to just create some low content books like coloring books or journals with lines and sell them for passive income, this can help you create a passive stream of income.
So that’s my spiel! If you want to learn more check out the link below! All the proceeds I make from the course go into making future books that I hope to release in the future.
Use code “holidays” for 30% off at checkout.
Self Publish Course — The Trailblazer Journals I understand how overwhelming the publishing world can be. I know what it feels like to have a dream to write a book with no idea how to get there.

🎉🎉 I’m having a book sale for my book! Originally I tried doing a birthday book sale but there was an issue with Amazon changing the price but it finally went through.
My book will be on sale for $8.96 now through Black Friday so if you’ve been wanting to grab a copy for yourself or for gifts, now is a great time to buy it!
As always I appreciate the support for every book that someone buys. It not only helps me so that I can hopefully save enough to produce more books in the future with the funds I make from this book but it also helps whoever reads the book to know God more deeply and be encouraged through the different seasons of life!

This is one of the many times of year where contentment can be difficult. There’s always a lot of exciting things during the month of May that if you don’t have something exciting, discontentment can creep in easily. But something I’ve been challenging myself with over the last few years is to really work on contentment.
I think through my years of wrestling with God, he’s really drilled this lesson in. I used to really struggle with comparison and discontentment. I always felt insecure when people would ask “what’s new” if I didn’t have something big or exciting to share. I would rush through things or prematurely announce things just to have something new to share so that I could feel like excitement again and feel important. And while there’s nothing wrong with new or exciting seasons, most of our seasons are lived in the mundane moments.
I think the danger of social media is the pressure to constantly prove how exciting our lives are. We are pressed to keep up and share something exciting so we get more likes and seem important. But the trap of social media is never feeling content with our lives. It can cause us to create our own futures without consulting God. It can cause us to pursue things for the wrong motives or just not appreciate what we currently have because it’s not as shiny as someone else’s life.
So I’m here to challenge and encourage us today to celebrate the little things in our lives. Celebrate the small moments, the mundane moments. Celebrate people just for being who they are, not just when they have an exciting life update. Celebrate God’s faithfulness for all he’s already done without the caveat of what’s to come. Celebrate God for who he is to us just because he’s a good Father. And as you do this and the more we realize God is in control and sovereign… the easier contentment becomes!
