I'm so happy you're here!

​I've prayed for our paths to cross.  I don't know what led you to this page, but I hope to bring some inspiration and encouragement to you while you're here.

Life can be messy, hard, and complicated, but I want you to know there is always hope and a brighter tomorrow will come. The sun will shine again.  

I personally found this out a little over two years ago. My husband suddenly passed away and I found myself in some of my darkest days navigating some pretty complicated and messy grief (I'll share more of that with you in a little bit...) 

I'd love to share my story with you and hear yours too.  Life is better when you have a hand to hold, and a safe place to open up.  I hope this space will be that for you.

I want you to know you can grow from life's grief and find a life you love that's worth living. 

You're going to be ok.

Hello friends!  Welcome to my new home! I'm so glad we have found each other.  I hope you are able to find this to be a safe space where you can let your hair down and breathe.  Life can be so hard and messy sometimes.  It can feel as if you are going 100 miles a minute.  My prayer for this place is that it will be a refuge for you.  A place where you can find you aren't alone in your struggles and pain.  

I'll start by introducing myself!  My name is Amanda.  I am a mama to a beautiful and amazing little girl . (She's not so little anymore..)  We have had the ride of our lives over the past two and a half years.  We lost our husband and daddy  unexpectedly in October of 2019.  We were starting to get back into the swing of things, and then entered a global pandemic.  It's safe to say we've had many hills and valleys in between that we've had to journey through.   

Along this journey, I've been able to experience immense growth and healing.  It hasn't been easy, but it's been worth it.  Most things in life that are "worth" it, aren't easy.  I'd love to share my story with you, and in fact, will get to, in July 2022!  "Love, Grit & Grace" will be officially released this Summer!  

Until then, I would love to get to know you and hear your story.  Again, I'm so happy you are here! I can't wait to get to know each other.
