When Life Gets Full: A Gentle Return to Rhythm
If you’ve been following along here on the blog, you may have noticed things have been a little quieter than usual. My last post was on November 29th, and since then, life has been… full.
Not just busy—full in the way life sometimes gathers everything at once. Work, caregiving, decisions that require emotional bandwidth, new responsibilities, unexpected challenges, and moments of personal reflection that don’t neatly fit into a weekly posting schedule.
I used to feel pressure when I got “off track,” as if falling behind meant I had somehow failed. But over the past few weeks, I’ve been learning something tender and surprisingly freeing:
Grace doesn’t rush you back.
Grace welcomes you back.
I’m choosing to see the gap not as a failure but as an invitation—
an invitation to breathe, reset, and re-enter this space with intention rather than obligation.
A Little Vulnerability
One thing I’ve been reflecting on lately is how easily I can slip into thinking I need to be strong all the time—emotionally, spiritually, professionally. I coach women on emotional intelligence, on grace, on alignment… and yet there are days I, too, feel stretched thin or unsure or tired in ways that don’t resolve quickly.
There were mornings I opened my laptop to write… and realized my heart needed tending before my hands could type.
That’s the part I want to be honest about:
Sometimes the most spiritual thing we can do is pause.
Not quit.
Not disconnect.
Just pause long enough to remember who we are, whose we are, and what truly matters.
Back to Our Rhythm
I’m grateful to step back into writing again—both the weekly article and the devotional. I’ve missed creating these spaces of reflection, encouragement, and truth. I’ve missed connecting with you.
Thank you for being here, for reading, for allowing my words to land in your life. Thank you for giving me the space to step away and the grace to return.
What’s Next
This week, we’ll ease in gently:
✨ A new article (this one—hello again!)
✨ And then back into our steady rhythm of Wednesday + Saturday posts next week
If your own life has felt hurried, heavy, or stretched, I hope this simple return reminds you that you don’t need to “catch up”—you just need to come back.
Grace is already holding the door open…you get to step in!
