Time to Refresh

September 9, 2015 | blogging, Faith, fitness

If you have been reading my blog for awhile, then you know that not only do I have a passion for fitness and social media, but I also have a love for encouraging and helping others. At the end of October, I will be heading out on a solo road trip to Tennessee for a couple of days. I was presented with an amazing opportunity, and I hope to see some of you there (hurry only a handful of spots left!)

That’s right, I will be attending (and speaking at!) Refresh Summit South at the lodge at Deer Run!

My friend Bobbi has done an amazing job with Refresh, and I am stoked to be a part of such an amazing weekend where I will get to learn, grow, speak, listen, be inspired, and hopefully inspire others. my faith is so important to me, and sometimes a weekend away to reconnect and listen to God speak is needed, and it couldn’t have come at a better time for me and all the crazy things going on in my life!

I will be leading a workshop sharing from my personal experiences with social media, but not in the sense that you would think. I am going to be sharing my heart about the ups and downs social media can cause. The pitfalls, the comparisons, the haters, and how I handle it all. I by no means have it all figured out, but dealing with the damaging side of social media is something that has been on my heart for awhile now, and cannot wait to share what God has been teaching me.

As I mentioned before, there are NINE spots remaining for the summit, and I hope you will consider going. We will be up in the beautiful mountains in Tennessee, working out together, eating together, learning and worshiping together, and having a lot of fun! Be sure to check out the website for all the important details. I hope if this is something that interests you that you will pray about it and consider coming!

QOTD: Have you ever been to a retreat similar to Refresh? Do you love the mountains?

    I lived near Deer Run when I was in TN! It’s an amazing place. My son went there for some summer programs.

    I love Tennessee and this sounds like such an amazing trip, but I’ve got NYC marathon those days. I’m sure you’ll be a great speaker at the retreat.

    Oh, I so wish I could go to this! Franklin, Tennessee is one of my favorite places and it sounds like a great conference.

    Sounds amazing!!!! I would love to come but that is my birthday weekend AND my hubby’s birthday weekend so I don’t think my family would like me being gone! 😉

    That sounds like a wonderful weekend and I wish I could be a part of it. I just joined an online Bible Study through Proverbs 31 Ministries and we’re working through a book called “Taming the To-Do List” and I’ve already come face-to-face with some of the things I pretend I don’t need to work on.

It will be YOU. 🎄 They don’t know it yet. But whe It will be YOU. 🎄

They don’t know it yet. But
when they’re grown and starting
their own Christmas traditions,
it will be you they mirror.
Your family recipes,
the Christmas songs,
the nostalgic smell.

When they think of Christmas,
it will be YOU, not the presents
that they remember.

You are their memories.
You are their magic.
You are their Christmas. ❤️🎄

So slow down. Stop worrying if the presents are wrapped just right, if you baked enough cookies or picked out the right cards to send. It doesn’t matter. They will remember YOU.

Snow tubing… indoors… in the Smokies! ❄️⛰️ #sponso Snow tubing… indoors… in the Smokies! ❄️⛰️ #sponsored

Pigeon Forge Snow is the perfect family activity no matter the time of year: real snow, comfy temps, and endless winter fun even in the middle of summer. From tubing and snow forts to sweet treats at the candy bar, this is one spot my kid never wants to leave.

Plus, it’s just minutes from Dollywood, the Titanic Museum, and Dolly’s Stampede, so it fits right into any Smoky Mountain trip.

❄️ Save this for your holiday trip to the Smokies, and comment the word Snow and I will send you my exclusive discount code right to your inbox!

Carols & Barrels is a Christmas-themed whiskey trail filled with festive pop-ups, over-the-top décor, and limited-time holiday cocktails at distilleries across the state.

We visited Old Tennessee Distilling Co. and Old Forge Distillery in East Tennessee, and both went all-in on the holiday magic. From peppermint martinis to hot-cocoa old fashioneds—every stop has something totally different.

Grab your FREE digital passport and start checking in as you sip your way through Tennessee. Such a fun way to add a little adventure to the holiday season.✨
