Welcome to Raw. Real. Redeemed! I will be the first to admit I have a problem...and that it's a struggle to stay on the straight and narrow path of true simple living.  It's a struggle in my heart. It's a struggle reflected in my choices every day that have created habits which become my very life. Let's just start scratching the surface of this addiction...to seeing and doing too much.

The podcast "The Nordic Mum" that I reference several times in this episode can be found below.  Look for the episode called "10 things we could all do better" and "How to live Slow"

Welcome to Raw. Real. Redeemed! Part two of "The Story I'm Telling Myself" where Amber teaches us how to get to the root of our negative naratives. Once we figure out where those stories come from we can let the harmful ones go or at least change them to get to the freedom on the other side.

Welcome to Raw. Real. Redeemed! Christmastime brings with it a lot of wishes and wants and for some of us, pain, stress and feelings of being or having less than.  It is a struggle to keep things simple, at home, in gift giving and in our hearts. In it's truest meaning, Christmas is about God sending his son into the world to save sinners...in a most humble way and having nothing to do with decor, vibes, coziness, lights, trees, santa, piles of presents...or any of the other things we make it.  But the struggle IS real.

What is YOUR favorite day friend? One filled to bursting with work and excitement or stretching out before you in quiet rest?
