What would you try if you knew you wouldn’t fail?

January 20, 2014 | Uncategorized

This guest post is written by Lesley. I return home tomorrow and have so much to share! Sometimes it can be easy to set goals that are relatively easy to achieve. Conventional wisdom tells us to avoid setting goals that are too lofty, to not set ourselves up for disappointment and failure. Our ...

Things I wish I’d known when I started running

January 8, 2014 | blogging, Guest Post, running, tips

Please enjoy this guest post while I am off running 48.6 miles! When I decided to take up running a little over a year ago, I was completely new to the sport. I decided I wanted to make a healthy life change and jumped in with both feet—I signed up for a half marathon before I’d ever run ...

7 Years

January 7, 2014 | family

Seven years ago last night, at 6:30 in the evening at First Baptist Church New Orleans, I walked down the aisle and married my prince charming. Life hasn’t exactly been a fairytale all the time since, but I would never change the person standing beside me. You can check out a recap of our ...

I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like t I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like this has me reflecting—not just on what I’ve accomplished, but on who I’m becoming.

I’ve always been driven to achieve, to push, to prove. But lately, I’ve been learning to celebrate presence over performance, connection over perfection.

Today wasn’t about checking a box or hitting a goal—it was about pausing, feeling grateful, and eating a ridiculous amount of cake with people I love. And honestly? That feels like growth.

Here’s to 40: more aligned, more grounded, and still a little extra. 😉

Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 Big milestones always Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 

Big milestones always make me pause and ask:
What am I proud of?
What needs to shift?
Am I becoming the woman I want to be?

💡 As an Enneagram 3, I’ve always been wired to achieve — and for a long time, that meant shaping myself into whatever version I thought people would like best.

There are tables where it’s clear I’m not welcome — and that used to wreck me.
But at 40? I don’t do cliques. I don’t do shrinking or contorting to be accepted. 👀

I’ll always be kind. I’ll always be respectful. But I’m done dragging a chair to tables that were never built for me.

I’m moving over. Making space.
Creating my own table.

Let kids be kids—but let moms be smart. 😉
