So, here's the deal. Last year was H A R D. Filled with messy, sweaty, inner work. The start to this year has been full of all things still and quiet. Lots of inner seeking, listening and receiving. 🙏 . . Part of where Spirit is leading me this year is to letting go of fear. BUT I THOUGHT I ALREADY DID THAT (literally my rant). But, The further down the destruction wilderness hole you travel, the more you realize how much fear has been deeply ingrained in you. In places you didn't even know existed. 💔 . . This journey of mine continues to challenge me, push me and invite me into a deeper level of courage. More grace for myself. More acceptance of my shortcomings. More gentleness with my soul and the souls around me. And fear is at the root of every single one. We are not born with fear - we are born with love. We are made perfectly in the image of divine love. The further travel this spiritual journey, the closer I am moving to the love I started with❤ . . Thank you @awaken_conscious for the beautiful quote . . . . . #podcasts #blogger #faithjourney #spiritualjourney #spirituality #survivor #abusesurvivor #lovewins #beyou #risestrong #evenstill #werise #progressivechristianity #bebravebeyou #bebrave #wilderness #gaychristian #deepquotes #divinelove #faithjourney #traumarecovery #traumahealing #emotionalabusesurvivor #spiritualabuse #lettinggooffear am OBSESSED. Part of my new years resolution was to eat clean, cut out processed foods and start detoxing my body. (Thank you trauma for wrecking my insides). I eat pretty good anyway, but I wanted to take my meals to the next level. TOTALLY CLEAN. I looked at tons of meal plans and landed on @splendid.spoon and have LOVED IT. (Code below to try!) 👇 . . Not only does it take the prep work (and guess work) out of my meals, but everything is so good! I have a different smoothie each day for breakfast and a bowl for lunch. (Swipe left to see one of the bowls). The BEST part is there is no sugar added, it's gluten free, clean and vegan. Momma is sold ❤❤❤ If you're looking to clean up your diet and detox your body, you should totally try this!

TRIED AND TRUE. Intuition is never wrong. It is a path to your homeland. Your people. Your tribe. Your purpose. Intuition is what leads you home. 🏠 . . No matter what has been said to you about your feelings, emotions or intuition, know this: your institutions are not wrong. They are not deceitful. Rather, they offer whispers in your ear of truth from Spirit. Truths that you otherwise may not be aware of. ✨ . . Embrace your divine intuition. Honor it. Nurture it. Dare to follow it. Trust it. Allow it to become one of your favorite super powers 💪 . . . . #podcasts #blogger #writer #spiritualjourney #spirituality #youareenough #authentic #lovewell #loveyourself #misfitsunite #girlmom #wilderness #healthyboundaries #survivor #abusesurvivor #lovewins #gaychristian #deepthought #deepquotes #divinelove #faithjourney #dailyinspiration #lgbtchristian #allarewelcome This kid just gets more cool every day. She's my hero. Friends, Consider this a friendly reminder to just show up as you. We like you that way ♥ #noagrace . . . . #momofgirls #girlmom #lovewell #loveyourself #divinelove #momincollege #momgoals #fashionista #beyou #bebravebeyou #bebrave Motherhood is one of those things I thought I had completely figured out. And then I actually became a mom. 🤦‍♀️ And life happened. And then like every other mom on the planet, I question if I'm doing enough. If I'm getting it right. 😩 . . But, then there are moments like this. When your livingroom is filled with little people you adore. There is laughter. Silliness. And so much fun. And you sit back and think, maybe they will be okay after all. 😭 . . Listen, there is no magic formula to parenting. It is one day, one conversation, one event at a time. All they need is for us to keep showing up. Imperfect, tired and (at times) completely unprepared. All they need is for us to open our hearts, our arms and at times our livingroom. 😜 . . To all of you parents who keep showing up, Cheers to YOU 💪 keep showing up when you're tried. Keep loving HARD when you're overwhelmed. Keep taking one step and one day at a time. You are doing so much better than you think ❤ . . . . . #podcasts #blogger #writer #spiritualjourney #spirituality #youareenough #authentic #lovewell #loveyourself #misfitsunite #girlmom #lovewell #loveyourself #divinelove #survivor #abusesurvivor #lovewins #beyou #risestrong #evenstill #werise #progressivechristianity #bebravebeyou #bebrave #bravingthewilderness #lgbtsupporter #lgbtchristian #allarewelcome #dailyinspiration #momlife #momgoals #healthyboundaries My life has been full of left turns. Of upsetting the norm and forging my own path - over and over again. My choices were met with resistance. Disapproval. Shame. Excommunication. Rumors. Gossip. A stained reputation. . . Those moments marked me. They ripped my heart out. And just when I thought I could breathe, I would be painfully reminded that my safe places were no longer safe. 💔 . . The journey to follow where Spirit leads is often a lonely one. Where people won't understand. Listen. Or walk with you. It is often because you are challenging what has always been. Who you've been in their eyes. And in their world. Facing That change is hard. 😢 . . If you find yourself breaking away from the pack, my advice is, prepare for others to not understand. Prepare your heart to follow your right path no matter the cost. Because, as one who walked it, I promise EVERY single step is worth it. 🔥 . . Joy, freedom, bravery and courage show up in the wilderness. The right people to walk with you show up in the wild. The next right thing shows up over and over again. And you look back with gratitude for every step taken. May Healing and blessings cover your journey. ✨ . .
