Mommy Couch Confessions

Hey Y'all!
Today on the couch, I share a message posted to IG that grabbed my attention and my heart. The truth is, so often I find myself doing what's best or most expected by others as opposed to walking in my own truth. That burden is heavy and the outcome comes with a tired feeling that doesn't go away with naps or lazy days on the couch. It's a tired that has made me question living. A tired that contributed to a broken heart and low self worth. But now, today, I choose me. MY TRUTH. As am I, and some will fall away but those who know or hear my heart will be on this journey with me.

Hey Y'all
This one is personal, close to my heart and heavy. This episode of the couch I discuss what I believe to be the hardest goodbye, letting go of a friendship in adulthood. Choosing to do life with people and opening ourselves up to them is beautiful and in some ways restoring. But what happens when you have to say goodbye? The intensity of the love held becomes a pain that lives in our hearts. Fresh from such a goodbye, I know all too well and I share thoughts on goodbyes from my past, from the end of a relationship to the end of a life. So pardon my tears, but I hope you will join me on the couch.

Hey Y'all!
As we move through seasons of life, we can look back and see how we survived, over-achieved, fell down, worked hard to strive or gave up. On this episode of the couch, I share how I am choosing to move from the heavy burden of striving to create change to the surrender that opens up the space to thrive in God's will. Just a short and quick chat on the couch that I hope you'll join me for!

Hey Y'all!
Welcome back to the couch. Join me for this episode where I share a story on how I was low-key suffocating myself slowly and the powerful lessons learned when I decided to release and let go. Sometimes we hold on too tight and the main person we hinder and hurt in the process is ourselves. Grab a drink, a soft blanket and lets walk through this together!

Hey Y'all!
It was a night of no kiddos climbing in bed to wake me up which meant actually waking up when my 6 a.m. alarm went off. Prayers, coffee and quiet time translated to a few thoughts about love languages and what it looks like to love ourselves the way we are often told we should look to others to. Join me for this quick chat on the couch before the start of a full day!

Too often we see our value and worth tied directly to external validations or tangible reward. Join me as I tell you how new bedding both challenged my perspective and showed me more about how I see myself than I ever thought possible. Look forward to meeting you on the couch

Hey Y'all!
We have all said and heard, "enough is enough," right? I hope you will join me on the couch to tackle the illusion of "enough" and how those six letters can keep us stuck in patterns, thoughts and behaviors that no longer serve us. I am choosing to exchange "enough" with a word that doesn't trigger my survival tactics and send me into spirals that feel overwhelming. Maybe you will want to remove it from your vocabulary soon too!

**Trigger Warning**
This episode, I touch on suicide, depression and mental health. If you or someone you know are struggling there is help available, please see below for resources. As we wrap the first month of the year, re-evaluating how far we have (or haven't come) on obtaining goals and meeting resolutions can be burdensome. And even though we all love a fresh start and clean slate, life doesn't stop and some hits knock the wind out of us because we don't expect the blow. Join me as I discuss what it was like when I couldn't go any further and the lessons I've learned since then. May we all be encourage to take life one fleeting moment at a time!

Hey Y'all! 
In this episode, join me on the couch as we touch on the importance of following your truth and leaving behind the path of people pleasing and self-doubt. The process of learning to trust the way that is made clear to you instead of looking for approval can be scary but so worth the work. Come grab your seat on the couch!

Hey Y'all! We made it through the holiday season and are smack dab at the start of a whole new year! So thankful to have made it this far and I look forward to all this year has in store. On the couch in the coming weeks there will be some laughs, some tears and a whole lot of truth. I hope you will join in on the conversations and bring a few friends to get comfy with us as we move through the beauty of this community in 2022!
