I'm back! And I apologize for being MIA. Life has been tough lately! But I know that God does not give us anything in life that we cannot handle.

Episode Summary: I share my recent challenges and my journey of seeking strength through the hard stuff. I recently lost my grandmother, and navigating the grief has been very hard. Along with that, life has just thrown some curveballs at me. Things like softball, work, school, and the duties of taking care of myself, my family, and my home have just stacked up! I have not been feeling like myself, and through this episode, I am just myself, and I am vulnerable with you.
