Here are a few of my favorite things–the topics that really make me tick. I love to focus aspects of life that are already good and find ways to make them even better. You’ll find content here that I hope will add value to your everyday. We’ll discuss faith, travel, home, organization, fitness, podcasts, and more topics that will cheer you on to live your best, most abundant life.
Since college, I’ve had an ‘all or nothing’ relationship with working out. Growing up I was super active (like most of us are) and I even cheered throughout college so movement was easy – something I just did. But as an adult, I feel like there’s this huge lack of motivation that comes with working out. And maybe it’s because of the pressure we start putting on it. It becomes…
If you’ve been following along for a while, you probably know this about me: I’m a lazy driven person. I don’t even know if LAZY is the right word – it’s probably not – but I like life to feel EASY. And I’m not someone who enjoys being on the go 24/7. Does that make sense? Like I will kill myself to make a project perfect, but I also know…
I hope y’all are loving my new mini-series “How to Detox Your Life”! In the first post, I covered everything self-care and called out all the skincare products I’m loving right now. But for today, we’re switching gears and I’m diving into detoxing your home! When I came home from Portugal (I know I keep mentioning that in these posts, but it’s when I realized I needed to detox my…
If I had to choose a season where I most like my morning routine, it’s probably summer (though a cozy Fall morning is awesome too!). But there’s something about the warmer, lighter summer mornings that make getting up early easier and all around more enjoyable. I think my early morning Pilates routine has also just instilled waking up earlier and being active in the mornings which has truly been a…
Welcome to WEEK 8 of our Attributes of God study! If you are just tuning in, we are studying the attributes of God using Jen Wilkin’s book “None Like Him” to navigate some of God’s incommunicable attributes, which basically means attributes that are unique to God alone. If you missed the series introduction post, I announced the Attributes of God series there and explained a little bit about WHY we should…
I’ve done a good deal of traveling in the last five years and have written a lot about it, but somehow I’ve never talked about how to make an abroad flight more enjoyable. Because let’s be honest, most long international flights are kinda the worst – don’t you think?! Believe it or not, there are some things you can do to make your flight more comfortable and even make the…
Welcome back to the Attributes RECAP! We have been making our way through Jen Wilkin’s book “None Like Him” and diving in week by week to the some of the main (incommunicable) attributes of God. If you missed the series introduction post, I announced the Attributes of God series there and explained a little bit about WHY we should care to know more about God and his nature. So far we’ve covered the…

At the end of the year, I wrote a post about how to find balance when you’re busy and then another post in January about how my life was incredibly unbalanced and my journey to figuring out why. After publishing both of those, I realized how important it was to talk about balance on BTD. It goes back to one of the basic reasons I share my life on this…
We are heading into chapter 4 of Jen Wilkin’s “None Like Him” this week and are going to be chatting about God’s SELF-SUFFICIENCY. The Attributes of God Series If you missed the series introduction post, I announced the Attributes of God series there and explained a little bit about WHY we should care to know more about God and his nature. But for a quick recap, over the next several weeks, we’re…
We are in our third week of the Attributes of God Series we’ve been doing over the past few weeks. If you’ve missed the previous weeks, I highly recommend catching up when you have time! So far, we’ve talked about how God is infinite and how He is Incomprehensible. And for me personally, spending time thinking about meditating on these truths has been super transformative and restorative for my personal…
We are in the second week of a current series we are doing here on BTD and I can’t even begin to tell you how amazing it has been for me to spend time dwelling on the infinite nature of God! I felt so much permission this week to be ok with my limitations and lean into God, knowing He has none. I wrote a little bit about it in…
God is Infinite. Which means he has absolutely ZERO limitations. Have you ever thought about what this means? I know that until recently I certainly haven’t. But as I’ve been praying and reflecting over this concept over the past week, I’ve really come to appreciate and be dumbfounded by the fact that our God is an infinite God. I may not always consciously realize it, but I basically *try* to…
Hi Friends! Today I want to tackle a BIG topic – keeping your house clean. We’re deep into spring cleaning season at this point and I’ve spent quite a bit of time thinking about ways to *actually* keep my house in order for more than a day after a deep cleaning sesh. Because isn’t it the worst when you spend an entire day (or even an entire weekend) cleaning your…
If you’ve been keeping up with my posts, you know I’ve been focusing on prayer for the last few months. As I’ve been exploring prayer and implementing more of it into my life, I began to think about how important it is for me to really know who I am praying to. Not just a general knowledge, but a detailed knowledge of God that tells me what he is like and…
Technology and all the gadgets and features that come along with it are basically the center of our lives these days. And because of this, if my inbox is overflowing or my files on my computer are unorganized, I feel completely frazzled. I’ve learned that when my tech is in order, it just makes me feel better about my life. Anyone else? If this sounds like the refresher you need right…
Y’all know I’m all about easy-to-wear clothes that I can run around in. The key is finding pieces that check both the style box and the comfort box. Not gonna lie, I gravitate a lot toward the athleisure vibe when it comes to my day to day outfits. And I get lots of questions from y’all about what I’m wearing on those more casual days, so I thought it would be…
