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.
It’s time for another Attributes of God 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…
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.

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…
Hi friends! I’m diving into health and wellness with today’s post and I hope it’s something y’all are interested in talking about. I think it’s a topic so many of us struggle with on a daily basis, so why not break it down like everything else? I’m not a health guru by any means, but I think we can all offer encouragement and what we’ve learned from our own personal…
Y’all have probably gathered by now that I’m very into getting good sleep and having a strong nightly routine. My sleep and the routine I rely on to help me get that sleep are two things I really try not to sacrifice no matter what day of the week it is. But it occurred to me recently that I haven’t shared much about what I do before my routine – you know, what…
My brain feels constantly overloaded, so the thought of memorizing anything feels impossible to me on most day! Anyone else feel that way? Even though it feels challenging, I know it’s important. Especially as I have shared with you guys about my desire to grow in prayer and using scripture to pray. What better way to pray scripture than memorizing it? But back to the fact that it feels hard.…
I think we have all had those times when we feel like we are praying and asking God for something and it feels like radio silence on the other end. Some prayers are things I can afford to wait on, but some prayers feel more desperately urgent and waiting on an answer for longer than a day or a week feels like torture. I figure I’m not alone in this,…
I think we can all relate to how AMAZING (and cathartic!) it feels to get organized and have a clean home, RIGHT? I mean with all this Marie Kondo-ing going around social media who isn’t jumping into their closets and pantries to get rid of items that don’t ‘spark joy’?! Also, with it being officially March, the spring season is upon us and we know that means the spring cleaning…
We’re officially in the Spring Cleaning Season, which I personally kinda love. (I even wrote a whole post on how to clean up your ENTIRE LIFE, which I love thinking about in terms of more than items.) Anyways, it’s funny how it takes a certain season to make us all motivated to finally clean out our closets, but hey, I’m OK with that! My problem most years, though, is that…
First off, how the HECK is it March?! Like wow. But here we are! I shared what I do to start each month in this post and something that’s come from it has been finding personal ‘focus areas’ for the following month. I basically assess my month prior (like I mentioned in that post) and then see what I’m feeling/missing/needing in my life. Usually the focuses come pretty naturally and…
