Life

The holidays can be beautiful… but they can also be overwhelming — especially for moms, wives, and women who do the emotional labor of holding a home together. Year after year, we burn ourselves out trying to create magic for everyone else. But what if this year looked different?

Welcome to Slow Glow Season — my 45-day intentional living practice designed to help you slow down, soften your nervous system, reconnect with God, and glow from the inside out.

Slow Glow Season isn’t about perfection. It’s about presence.

It’s about choosing rituals that make your home feel peaceful, your body feel supported, and your soul feel nourished.

If you’ve been craving a reset — physically, spiritually, emotionally — this is your gentle invitation.


Why Slow Glow Season Matters

During the holiday months most women run on cortisol, caffeine, and sheer willpower. We’re planning, decorating, cooking, wrapping, budgeting, organizing, traveling — all while navigating the emotional pressure of “keeping up.”

But the truth is:

Your family doesn’t need a perfect mom. They need a peaceful one.

Your body deserves the rest and you deserve the magic just as much as the rest of the family.

Your spirit needs quiet moments to hear what God is whispering.

Slow Glow Season creates small, doable practices that help you regulate your nervous system, calm your hormones, and re-enter your own life with intention.

And because so many of you asked… here is Week One.

This Jade mat is just wow….I can’t lay on it without falling asleep….and apparantly neither can my husband, because he has permanantly attached it to his side of the bed: Jade and Tourmaline Soft Mesh Far Infrared Heating Pad Inframat Pro (Medium) https://amzn.to/4r7ayhp


This is one of my favorite sets ever! I have it in a few colors, my favorite being chocolate brown and orange…and I have another red set on the way. I have D breasts and the bra is very supportive! In addition to how cute this ribbed set is, I purchased the first set two years ago and it has little to no signs of wear. 2 Piece Ribbed Seamless Crop Tank High Waist Yoga Leggings Sets https://amzn.to/3LSrAzO

My personal trainer past is still a part of me. Because of that I cannot pass up a pair of comfortable, running shoes. These Brooks Women’s Ariel GTS 24 Supportive Running & Walking Shoe https://amzn.to/487FO7w

Fun Fact! When water is stored in a copper bottle for several hours, tiny amounts of copper ions dissolve into the water. This process-called oligodynamic action-has natural antimicrobial effects. Copper also plays a role is energy production, skin and thyroid health!

I purchased this mat to help with my horrible luteal phase after my youngest was born. Now that my hormones have healed, I faithfully use it 2-3 times per week.
