About This Space
Words are powerful.
The words we internalize shape the narrative we tell ourselves. That narrative, in turn, helps us to understand the world. I want to learn with you how to shape that narrative more effectively so that we can see more clearly what is beautiful or true or worth waking up for in the morning.
A big part of that is the Encouragement Experience, where we reshape our narrative through encouragement, choosing to see the ways others are encouraging us and the ways we have chosen to encourage others (helping them tell themselves a better story). This year I have purposefully been looking for these small moments, and it’s helped me see my every day life in a completely different way. I really want to share that with you.
Another large part of that is my blog, where I regularly walk through what it looks like to choose carefully the words we use to define our reality both in our thought life and in my own day to day. I’ll also share books that are helping me see more clearly the world we walk in (and sometimes books that just give us a break when things are getting overwhelming).
My hope is that you come away from your time here encouraged and with renewed perspective and clarity. I’m hoping that for myself too. I write about sharing encouragement and widening perspective not because I’m an expert, but because I’m deeply invested in learning how to do both more effectively.
I’m also deeply invested in encouraging you.
