Additional Insights on Momentum Trackers.

After using the Momentum Tracker for several months and seeing SUCH big changes in my daily living, overall happiness and excitement for life, I started sharing it with friends and family. The more I shared, the more I learned (I love how the Holy Ghost can teach us truths as we talk & teach!). This video is to share the insights that I had and also gleaned from family and friends.

I've been buying copies and sharing them with close family and friends (in fact in my intro video I'm holding up a print out of her album because I recently gave my copy away too.) AND decided I want to share the love with one of YOU & one of your friends. SO, the Giveaway WINNER will get 2 copies of the album mailed directly to their house.

Motherhood Monday: Waiting for Me.

I wanted to share one of the reasons that I haven't posted in several months. September 2016, at 10 weeks pregnant, our fifth baby earned its wings. It was a really painful and poignant time for our family, yet through it we saw how God brings sweetness to bitter experiences. At the time I decided to share some of my thoughts from that day in the hospital-- Well, a little over a year and a half later we are expecting again! We are overjoyed and feel incredibly grateful. As I write that, it dawns on me that this little one is due right around Thanksgiving and what appropriate timing. We are indeed SO very thankful. In part I wanted to share this news here because my mental health has been part of the journey. We wanted to try sooner for a baby but I felt strongly that I needed to take some time for myself to get my health in better order, especially my mental health. How far the Lord has brought me this last year!! I feel so much more stable and capable.

Why I started Therapy and an Introduction to Intentional Happiness & Self-Leadership.

Usually I escaped through endless, mindless, insatiable scrolling on social media and by eating junk food. But nothing seemed to fill the void. I was almost always tired, irritable, easily angered and annoyed. I loved spending time with my husband or by myself, but it was never enough. I did things I enjoyed but felt like I was stealing the time or being selfish. In spite of my extremely supportive husband, each day felt like an uncontrollable vicious cycle with no way of changing things. Showering, getting ready, and exercising didn't feel like priority or even possibilities. Regardless of my efforts I chronically felt behind in everything. My kids seemed more burdensome than anything else, with never-ending messes, requests, tantrums, fights, whining and complaining. The resentment I felt towards them seemed

You're a Gem.

This morning, in conjunction with seeking light & inspiration at a nearby temple (of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints), I had a very sweet and powerful experience. With it being the weekend, I was going to wait and type it up next week, but when I saw that it was International Women's Day, I knew I needed to take the time to share this TODAY. While driving away from my house this morning I had the idea to text a song to a friend of mine. I've learned to as-immediately-as-possible follow through with the whisperings of God's spirit, so I pulled over and sent the text. Next came the thought to tell her how amazing she is, that she is just the way God needs her to be (strengths, weaknesses, insecurities and all) and that He works beautifully through her. That phrase made me think of a prism and how it refracts light. The words came to me, "We're each unique prisms (with the different faces & facets of our personalities and testimonies

Officially Facing My Dragons.

I'll be honest, although mental illness runs in my family and definitely played a role in my upbringing, I wasn't keen on the idea of looking in to my own mental health. The societal stigmas kept me stressing over all of the "what ifs" instead of seeking for answers & solutions. Finally in the Fall of 2017 my mental health was negatively influencing my physical health to such a degree that I felt sick and debilitated most days. It was unsustainable, especially as the mother of 4 young & active children and a new puppy. Something had to change. I ended up doing a Facebook Live (see video here ), sharing an impression I'd had regarding my mental health. Little did I know that the comments I received would be more important than what I shared. They were a springboard for finally being brave enough to officially face my dragons. I say officially because I'd done my best to deal with my anxiety for years and I KNOW that God has been with me every
