I've been writing words on the Internet since the OG blog days. As a senior in college, I opened up a Wordpress account and started pouring my heart onto the page and publishing words of encouragement on the Internet. That blog started everything for me in my career. It led me to new creative endeavors. It helped me land my first publishing deal. It is still my favorite part of the job I do on a daily basis. Don't ever doubt or belittle the small beginnings-- they can lead to more than you could ever imagine.
behind the WORDS
I am the founder of The World Needs More Love Letters, author of 4 books, a TED Speaker, and an online educator teaching others how to establish important disciplines within their lives. Words are my everything and nothing fires me up more than getting to teach people about the power of discipline. Establishing better discipline was an essential piece in dealing with depression and I love seeing the freedom it unlocks in others as they establish better habits and rhythms in their own life.
I’m a proud New Englander living in city of Atlanta with my husband Lane and our little girl Novalee. You can find us trying out new restaurants across the city, getting dangerously cutthroat over playing Battleship, playing at the park, and cozying up to watch a thriller (or Moana if Novi gets to pick) with our rescue pup Tuesday.
For over a decade, I’ve been filling this space with words for the brokenhearted and the defeated, for the hopeful and crazy dreamers, for the ones who are torn and the ones who are planting down roots, and for the ones who are looking for God and those who have found something worth holding onto.
What I'm
loving
Unplugged hours. Deep focus + time blocking. Sending long, prayer-filled voice memos. Lifting heavy weights. Yellow notepads. True crime podcasts. Adding more fun to daily life.
What I'm
learning
Rest is productive. I don't have to do it all. 'No' is a full sentence. God can do a lot with the small gaps in the day. Perspective and mindset is absolutely everything. Generosity leads to deep joy.
What I
write about
Keeping faith in a jacked-up world. What I'm learning in motherhood. The power of routines + rhythms. My mental health journey. How to show up fully and intentionally to your life.
what I
believe
The most valuable resource we've been given is time. The world needs more love letters. Gratitude is never overhyped. You're not missing any pieces. God really loves you.
always cozy
yes, please!
