These are stories from the wilderness…
I am traversing the hardest season of my life and I have committed to writing about the good and the bad. It’s mostly the good that is being born from the bad though. On Election Day 2020 I had a simple surgery on my left knee that went really wrong. I haven’t been able to walk without pain and crutches since. I developed a rare pain syndrome called CRPS that essentially keeps me in debilitating chronic pain.
You Sold yet?? lol
God has been SO good to me and shown me SO much through this season. These stories are narrations of my walk through the wilderness. These stories are me SHAREing first.

“I’ve come to realize that my mission is to teach people to share their blessings and bruises to connect with love and empathy. I have never followed the lead of anyone that I didn’t see go first. This newsletter, this ministry, everything I do… is me going first. I will share the good and the bad with transparency, knowing that God will make sense of both.”
