My Door Is Always Open…

Today marks a deeply personal day of reflection for me. Over my 30+ years of parenting, have learned a great deal about love, loss, and resilience. One of the most profound is that grief is like the ocean; it comes in waves, ebbing and flowing. Sometimes the water is calm, and sometimes it is overwhelming. All we can really do is learn to swim. Am grateful for the life preservers {people} God has provided, for learning to swim, and being giving the absolutely precious gift of supporting others.

My son Brandon would be 27 today.

July 24, 1997, was the day my world changed forever. My beautiful 5 pound 11 ounce baby boy son came into this world, and even though his stay was heartbreakingly brief, his impact has been everlasting. Happy Heavenly Birthday, Brandon! 💙😇

Still waiting for the day we celebrate together. Until then, will continue to carry you in my heart and share your story with the world.

Today, we will start yet another memorial garden in Florida. Guess the plan is to brighten the US with Brandon’s blooms. ☺️
Will watch the sunset at the beach and see God’s presence as we look over the vast waters, knowing He has you.

Through the years, I've seen God use our most profound losses for good, transforming ashes into beauty. The community I've found has been a source of strength and solace. Am grateful for Brandon's life, for the lessons learned from his death, and for the way God has used me to walk alongside other hurting mothers.

Grief is a strange thing. The loss of a child is pure torture. Yet, in this pain, I have discovered a deeper faith, compassion, perseverance, and love. Have learned to keep going through my darkest days, knowing there will be light again.

It’s okay not to be okay sometimes. To all those who have experienced loss, you are NOT ALONE. Whatever you feel, wherever you are today, is perfectly fine. And hey, my door is always open, and I would consider it an honor to listen, pray, and walk alongside you.

Brandon, your life and death have forever changed me for the better.

Forever in my heart. An angel from the start 👣❤️🪽

What is the most impactful thing that someone has ever told you that stuck?

What do you tell yourself that’s not entirely true?

The words we speak to others and the stories we tell ourselves matter. We get to choose who we give license to speak into our lives, how we speak to others and ourselves.

Let’s speak life, love, kindness, compassion. We’re all fighting our own battles no matter what the social media highlights show.

Be kind always.

So many favorite quotes…one of them — “If you’re abundantly blessed by God in this life, build a bigger table not higher walls.”

Thinking about and appreciating the ways this has been exhibited to me by some tremendous mentors. Grateful for the leaders in our life who have shown us what this looks like.

It is a life well lived and there’s always another seat at the table. ✨

Embracing the Power of Stillness 🌿

In a world that glorifies constant hustle and perpetual motion, we often overlook the profound productivity found in stillness. As author and poet Zora Neale Hurston once wisely said, 'Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is sit a while.' 🕊️

In the midst of our busy lives, it's easy to equate productivity with non-stop activity, but true productivity encompasses much more. It involves moments of pause, reflection, and introspection. By allowing ourselves the space to sit, breathe, and simply be, we see greater levels of clarity and creativity. 🌟

So, let's redefine productivity not as a relentless pursuit of tasks completed, but as a balance between action and rest. Let's honor the value of stillness as a catalyst for inspiration, innovation, and growth. 🌱

Today friends, take a moment to sit in silence, to listen to our own us. In this space of serenity, we'll discover that sometimes, the most profound progress occurs when we allow ourselves to simply be. ✨

Oh the opinions of others and the weight we give them! It is a dangerous trap indeed and many of us unintentionally fall into it. 🫣

He is the ONE who matters most. When the world and all of the opinions within it get inside that head of yours — and let’s
be real; it happens to us all — don’t forget, YOU perform for an audience of ONE. 🙌🏻

❤️ You are deeply loved by Him.
💪🏻 When you are weak, He is strong.
🪨 He is the rock on which you can stand.

This one has been a challenging one for me throughout my life — maybe it has for some of you too? The expression about sticks and stones…what a joke. Words can and do hurt.

That said, there really is power within you to CHOOSE who you let into that beautiful mind and heart of yours. If you’re giving it to the naysayers — mute them! 🔇

Be picky friends. Happy Wednesday and much love. 🤗

A few years ago, chronic illness made running impossible. Comparing myself to others isn’t fair—everyone’s journey is different. Let’s celebrate our own victories, measure progress against our own story, and be kind to ourselves. #PersonalGrowth #CelebrateYourWins #BeKindToYourself

Instead of yearning for an easier life, let's focus on becoming the best versions of ourselves. Embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and skill-building. Remember, it's about being better equipped to walk the path, not about having a smoother path. #GrowthMindset #PersonalDevelopment

I'm incredibly grateful for the amazing people in my life who keep me balanced. 💖 That's why I'm passionate about doing the same for others. At Fairway, we've created an internal coaching and mentoring program designed to intentionally support and uplift our teammates.

Raising children in a blended family has taught me the importance of recognizing each child's unique needs and gifts. Fairness isn't about treating everyone the same but ensuring each child gets what they need to thrive. This lesson applies to business and coaching too. Meeting people where they are and valuing their individuality helps everyone flourish. #ParentingLessons #BlendedFamily #Individuality #Coaching

Talking to our son Matthew about success, I'm reminded of Vince Lombardi's powerful words: "The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will." Success isn't about physical strength or knowledge; it's about willpower and determination. #MotivationMonday #Determination #SuccessJourney #KeepGoing #Inspiration #fairwaynation #coachingforgrowth

Be okay with starting from the beginning, being learners, and taking our time! Sometimes we need to slow down to go faster. 😉 #fairwaynation #coachingforgrowth #coachingmindset #fairwayfamily #dothework

We go through the hards times to come out stronger on the other side! My personal experiences allowed me to serve others so much better because of the pain I endured. If you're going through something right now keep going friend you got this!

Unlock the power of networking! Discover essential tips to make the most of your time at networking events.

One of the most vital lessons I've learned in a blended family is the importance of community and seeking support. Parenting is challenging but with a strong community you can navigate it successfully. #blendedfamily #personalgrowth #parenting
