mountain moving


Ok, so I am 35 years old and I know I shouldn't totally love a song by a girl who my 5 year old loves, but I am not going to lie. I love the Miley
Cyrus song "The Climb." It just seems to capture this spot in my life.


"...There's a voice inside my head sayin'
you'll never reach it, every step I'm taking
every move I make feels
lost with no direction
my faith is shaking but I
got to keep trying
got to keep my head held high

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always gonna want to make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side

It's the Climb"

I have always felt like I wanted to make mountains move, but I have always been so scared to try. This year has been all about trying. Scary, authentic, exhausting, liberating, strength required mountain moving.


I am so thankful for those people I love who love me in return without any reservation. Those incredibly insightful, authentic friends who get me through. Who call me when I need them most even if I didn't realize how
much I needed them. Like this one:

And this one:

First post!

I have been thinking about this spot for awhile now and after much consideration and brainstorming with Michelle, here I am. This is very rough for now, I will be spending more time souping up this space in the very near future.



What will I be talking about here? I don't know. The crazy stuff that happens to me. My struggles, my family, things I love and most likely some pet peeves. So- Keep checking on me here.
