Have you ever heard of Mix.com? Or wondered how to use Mix? Yeah, yeah, I know you’re probably already on social media overload and not looking for something else but hear me out – I think Mix is better than Pinterest, Facebook, or Twitter. Here’s why: Why Mix is better than Pinterest, Facebook, or Twitter […] Read more…
I’ve been doing this Genius Blogger’s Toolkit review for years now. Total honesty: I’m getting a bit bored of them. They’re a bit repetitious from year to year. Still a good deal, but if you’ve bought one, you can skip a few years before buying another. Except for the Genius Blogger Toolkit review. This is […] Read more…
I want to begin by stressing that I have ZERO plans of turning into one of those blogs that try to convince other people to become bloggers and then sell them on a bunch of high-priced courses. There’s so many of those blogs out there in the world. I’m NOT one of them. However, I […] Read more…
Oh Valentine’s Day. It’s ironic that that’s the day when I began this blog. 5 years ago today. How things change. How we all grow. For better or worse. For BOTH better and worse.
Many people start blogs. I’m not original in that. Some start blogs to make money. Some start blogs as a personal creative outlet. Some start blogs because they feel compelled to write and feel that they can’t help but do anything but. Read more…
Since I started blogging in the marriage niche, I’ve been fortunate to stumble upon a lot of other marriage blogs. Some marriage blogs I enjoy and consider to be some of the best marriage blogs, others blogs are not really my thing or what I’m looking for. Unfortunately, many marriage blogs I’ve found are:
• Written solely with a Christian audience in mind and only relatable to a Christian audience.
• Blogs that ONLY talk about the happy moments of marriage and feel unrealistic.
• Simple, pat, and cliched answers that don’t address the depths of where marriage struggles often end up.
• Focused on more general topics such as dating, relationships, sex, or weddings, rather than marriage itself.
There is nothing wrong with any of these things above! And in fact are great fits for many couples depending on what they’re seeking. However, I’ve instead been on the lookout for these kinds of marriage blogs: Read more…
I’ve been reviewing the Ultimate Bundles for awhile now, but I’d stayed away from doing an Genius Bloggers Toolkit review (you might also hear it called the Ultimate Blogging Bundle review or Ultimate Bloggers Toolkit review) because, well, because there’s SOOOO many bloggers out there blogging about blogging now, and I’m not really interested in […] Read more…
See, I tend to take on too much. I’ve always been like this. I’m not good at waiting for things to come to fruition, and so, during inevitable slow periods that wax and wane over the journey of each project I bide my time by finding something new and interesting and jump on that bandwagon instead. And then I throw myself into it…until the initial excitement slows down and I find myself at yet another pause in that project’s journey. Then I layer on another something else to distract and divide my time with.
The cycle never ends, and I always burn myself out. Previous promising ideas get left by the wayside because I lack – ok, truthfully it’s because I lacked even from the very beginning – the dedication to the follow through….all the way though. Read more…
Hello dear reader of mine! Do you have a couple minutes? I don’t know if you saw my posts on facebook or got the email I sent out earlier this week, but if you have a couple minutes, would you mind filling out a quick feedback survey for me? CLICK HERE FOR THE FEEDBACK SURVEY […] Read more…
This is has not been an easy post to write, and it might not be easy to read either. And it’s long, which means it’ll be tl;dr (too long, didn’t read) for most of you. But I’m posting it anyway. I’ve been open about KP and I having marriage troubles in this blog several times […] Read more…
Yes, I realize it’s been a month since my last post. I’ve been busy with this blog/writing though still. I really have! I’ve been keeping my Date Night Subscription Boxes list up-to-date (and getting to know some exciting new companies and try out a few boxes) and if you follow me on facebook, you’ve seen […] Read more…
Ahh, the end of the another year, where we look back at all the we accomplished (or didn’t) in the last year and all we want to accomplish (or wish we would but won’t) in the next. Honestly, though I’m being a bit snarky about this, I’m actually a big fan of society’s collective moment […] Read more…
