Morning friend, I’m spending a few days in Santa Fee, New Mexico this week. It’s my first visit to a place rich with history and art, two things I love. This is our first official “vacation” since Covid and we took our dog, Addie, on this road trip. She’s doing great. The weather has been […]
He Won’t Let The Affair Go.
Morning friend, I’m back at our little cabin at Pinetop, AZ. The weather has been wonderful. Lots of rain, which we desperately need. The temperatures are cool and my five-mile daily walk is a joy. I was joking with my husband that I kind of like the smallness of our space. It’s easier to put […]
What Does Moving Forward Look Like?
Morning friend, Thanks for your prayers for my parents. They are doing a little better and able to manage somewhat better. It’s hard watching those you love struggle and be in pain. We are in the middle of our Moving Beyond Challenge week and it’s amazing. We’re seeing real breakthroughs from stuck to free. If […]
Getting Healthy After Divorce
Morning friends, Oswald Chambers tells us, “The great enemy of the life of faith is the good that is not good enough.” How about you? Do good things clutter out the best things in your life?

Is Staying Well The Best Option?
Morning friends, I was in Chicago recently visiting with my family. This past weekend was my 50th high school reunion, but sadly it was canceled due to COVID (Of course – I graduated at 10 years old). It was a little eerie going to the airport and sitting on a full flight for almost 4 […]
I’m A Leader In My Church. How Do I Tell My Church I’m Divorcing.
Morning friends, Can you believe we are almost at the end of August? This year has both crawled and flown by. The older I get, the faster time goes, yet this virus and fear and the uncertainty we all are struggling with seem to have also slowed time way down. Will we ever see normal […]
Thriving Not Surviving [Guest Post]
Morning friends, I’m up at our cabin, being nana this week, but I have a treat for you. I’ve asked my friend Gary Thomas to guest post for me today from his newest book When To Walk Away: Finding Freedom from Toxic People. I love hearing a pastor’s voice and heart validate the horrible effects […]
How Do I Let Go Of A Dead Marriage?
Morning friends, Our new dog Addison is adjusting to her new house and new routine but we haven’t gotten the potty training down quite yet. She’s a lot of fun and I’m really enjoying her.
