JOYful coaching

THIS! Take time for yourself. Nothing wrong with vegging out and doing nothing. In fact, at times, it's a necessity!

I just wanted to say I totally get it, life can be so difficult sometimes all you want to do is crawl back in bed or maybe to the sofa, turn on Netflix, and eat popcorn and chocolate all day (maybe this is too specific to me 😂🤷🏼‍♀️) and honestly I want to tell you that is okay! No one is perfect and has it together all the time. So ultimately what I’m saying is if you need a break.....take one. If you are struggling, don’t feel bad you are normal. Ask for help. Call a friend. Allow yourself to feel your emotions without getting trapped in them forever. Learn, feel, grow. Don’t give up and keep going. 💗

"The feeling of being controlled by our schedules or the demands of others-or being out of control-is contrary to our divine nature. We cannot feel the Spirit or experience the peace and joy of each day when we are burdened beyond our ability to handle it all. I believe that if it were possible, the adversary would keep us busily engaged in a multitude of good things in an effort to keep us distracted from the few vital things that make all the difference. Deciding what we really want in life is a significant and powerful tool." (Ardeth Kapp in her book 'You are better than you think you are' pg 168)

As your Life Coach, I can help you find the sugar.

I. Love. My. Kids. 🥰 My life is complete when I'm around them. Oooo the fun times we've had on our family trips and family game nights. Ooo how they make me laugh till I cry. 😂 I give thanks for them in my life and for all they do and all they are. 🥰

I am thankful for my parents for many different reasons.

When I think of my dad, I think of the quote, "The most important thing a father can do for his daughter's is love their mother." And boy oh boy does dad love mum.

Today, as I see friends from all over the world, sharing things they are thankful for, I wanted to share how thankful I am for this lady right here.

This is my daughter-in-law holding my precious grand-daughter. Courtney is a wonderful mother who is extremely patient and kind.

There is a moment in time that brings me to tears anytime I think of it, and I think of it a LOT.

I was blessed to be able to be around when she gave birth to her first child, my first grandchild. When it's your first child you just want to hold them and not let them go. This, kind, generous, new mother, knowing I would only be there for a short time and then head back to the USA, let me hold her newborn baby for hours and hours on end, every day that I was there. Those are times you can't take back, but she shared those days with ME!

I can never express my gratitude for that blessed opportunity.

I am thankful for you Courtney and that you are part of our family.

Here's a photo of my hand by the minis, and a few extra photos for size. 😁 I'd need a bigger shelf to display ALL my little things. I know I'll spend many fun hours rearranging them all. 🥰

I don't hide the fact that I'm obsessed with miniature things. I can't help myself. 🤷‍♀️ Recently I've been taking time for ME. Today I finally put up a shelf that I bought awhile back, to display SOME of my mini things. I had fun playing with them as I put them in their place. This makes me smile too see it. I may have peeked around the corner a few times just to get a glimpse of it. 🥰😍🥰 What have you done for yourself lately? 👇👇👇

I got some new socks today. I love the look of them and how toasty and warm they are. I'm not even upset that they MATCH. 😁🥰

Good morning world! ❄️ ⛄️ 🥶 First snow fall. 😊 And it's still coming down. 😳 snowfall
