We made it through the first full week of school with the little people at home and everyone survived!
A 90 Day Transformation Guide
You can find yourself again.
You can find yourself again in marriage.
You can find yourself again in motherhood.
The journey requires solitude but it also requires closeness with people who see you & love you. We need more of that.
It’s our own disbelief, doubt, and fear that keep us from becoming. We forget that we already are.
Hi, my name is Malia. I am light.
It took some time but I’m grateful
I thought fighting to get out of the hole was the hard part.
No. The hard part is fighting to stay out of it.
There was a time when I thought so little of myself. So much so that I let others tell me who I was and wasn’t. I had no identity and I had no voice.
I was an unbeliever and I found myself searching for truth. I found truth when I found God.
I found myself in Him.
After I forgave myself for quietly quitting. After I forgave myself for silently dying. After I forgave myself for not giving myself the compassion I gave to others.
After I forgave myself,
I found freedom.
I found love.
Keep going.
Why are you not on social media?
Are you off of instagram?
You haven’t been posting, is everything ok?
WE MISS YOU.
I hope all is well.
Praying for you and your family.
I MISS YOU
These are just a handful of messages I received on my unexpected but necessary break from socials. I would say I’m surprise I didn’t gradually ease into my hiatus but its just like me to go “cold turkey.” Although that method works best for me, it probably was not the best for the friends/family I’ve gain via social platforms so my apologies for such an unannounced break and thank you for reaching for me.
So where do we start?
The short story is, I got to Tulum and fell in love with rest. Not only did my mind + body need the rest but my soul needed it as well.
The long (not so long) story is I needed to get my house in order.
Typically, right before a break down happens, there are signs that warn us that something is not right. Well the signs were happening and they loud.
Energy levels low, acne, fatigue, irritability, body rebellion, headaches, mental fog and detachment from the things that mattered.
My thoughts were getting foggy with negative self talk, jealousy and the comparison disease. I couldn’t appreciate all the good things in my life because I was always trying to get to the next good thing.
Creating started to feel like a chore instead of a desire and I wasn’t creating enough moments that mattered OFF OF SOCIALS with my family
AND
To be totally honest, I was struggling in the mom + wife department.
I was running around like everything was fine (because it always is…. right) but my engine was failing.
SO I DECIDED TO TAKE A BREAK. And that was the best decision I’d made for myself in a long time.
My agreement to myself and to God was that I wouldn’t get back on socials until the time was right for me and that looked like putting God at the center of everything I do instead of doing the thing and consulting with him afterwards.
If you’ve been around for a while you’ve probably had a front row seat to this journey I’ve been on. Well I hope you have your snacks because we are still going.

Senoia “Seh-noy-uuh” or Senoia “Seh-noy” ? The short post : Life lately looks like friends and family, market days, and learning what it means to slow down. The long post : I gave my power away… for a split second. The part that we didn’t capture was the moment Pop got sick at the market. The ground outside the market and my shirt sleeve were the most accessible locations for spit up because when life throws you a 5 year old with a tummy ach, you just do what you can. Apparently not everyone agrees However “far” we may have come… as a people, we still have a long way to go… Karen, thank you for showing me that even I still have a long way to go. #whentheygolowwegohigh #explorenewnancoweta @explorenewnancoweta
Imagine waking up one morning… you make the bed, and go for coffee. You have a great breakfast and head back to your room. Imagine an overwhelming sense of grief literally knocking you to the floor. You shudder as it rocks you to your core. You try to collect yourself, to fully understand the heavy sense of loss you feel. You sit in silence trying to remember just what it is you loss, and then it dawns on you …. It’s YOU. You lost YOU. Finding me meant relearning who I was and understanding my purpose. I read every book you can think of, but truly found solace and direction in one. I wracked my brain trying to determine my purpose when I realized that it’s always been a part of me. A part of everything I do. A part of all that I am. To SERVE. Sounds too simple, and yet it’s that simplicity that gave birth to this new chapter. Taking all that is complicated about growth and making it practical. For any woman who needed more than 24 hours in a day. For any woman whose dirty clothes hamper overflowed from the laundry room to the floor. For any woman who has cried quietly in the driveway after dropping the kids off to school. For every woman who lost herself in “all the things”… Malias House is for You. Welcome, MHouse
And do not lead me into temptation But deliver me from evil. Deliver me from negative thinking. Deliver me from my own self sabotage. Amen
