+ Something New +

Just when the caterpillar thought her life was over, she began to fly...

Guys! Big news! I moved to Nashville this week! I received an incredible opportunity to go on an exciting adventure + decided to go for it!

This last season has been one of the roughest I've known. Then, when life couldn't get more confusing, when prayers didn't seem to be working, when I lost hope in everything... I grew wings! As I looked at them, I began to see how much I've learned about myself, who my friends or 'not' friends are (lol) + more importantly, what I truly believe.

I don't know where you are today, what's going on in your life, or how you feel... just know, it's not over! Your best days are ahead of you! Your Faith isn't made by you pretending or faking it, but from your inner strength + the bravery it takes to discover that strength; its found through the grace that keeps giving, believing + smiling especially when it hurts!

Sometimes the end of your caterpillar season feels like the darkest, loneliest, confusing place you've ever known, but only in that place can you develop the most spectacular set of wings made especially for you; tightly knit together by the pain you've survived, lessons learned, scars healed + tears shed. Remember this, you're not too broken! In fact, your brokenness is the perfect place for a beautiful mural to be redesigned for a greater plan!

I love you guys! Now that I'm here, finally unpacked with my sweet daughter I can share more vulnerable moments, lessons in this new season + inspiration I find along the way!
