Welcome to the new You Are More! I could not be more glad that you have found yourself in this space today and I hope that you stick around and find something for yourself.

You Are More has been around for awhile and has continued to evolve into so much. This space started off as a place for the things on my heart to overflow into words. It was a hobby, something I did once in awhile, but something I so very loved. Over the years this place has grown into so much more.  This blog is my space where I get to be me, where I get to unfold who I am outside of being a wife, outside of being a mom, outside of all the different hats I wear. This is where everything else that makes me who I am can find its home with no limitations.

What is the heart behind You Are More?

If you have been here for awhile, it would be no surprise to you that my heart beats to encourage women, but most of all, to encourage mamas. I am passionate about reaching out to mamas and reminding them that they aren’t alone in this walk of motherhood. In the day in and day out of life, you are more than just a mom. Too often we put limitations on ourselves, even subconsciously, that keep us from discovering all of who we are and who we can be. It’s in this place I remove those limitations and seek to remind you to remove them as well. I know all too well what it’s like to get lost in the mundane of every day, and I want you to remember that you are so much more.

You Are More is here to encourage moms and meet them right where they are. When their heart is weary, when their heart is overwhelmed with joy, when the days are long, and when the days are short. No matter where you find yourself, I want this place to be your safe place. I want this place to remind you that you aren’t alone. There is a community here that is seeking to do life together with you and uplift you. You don’t have to do this alone.

Does this mean You Are More is a motherhood blog?

I used to shy away from the term “mommy blogger.” I have this thing with being put in boxes and I don’t like it very much. I don’t want to feel like I can only reach where my box allows me to reach and nothing more. So, I didn’t want to be boxed in. But from the people who know me most, this ever growing passion to reach mamas was bursting out of me, and the more it was pointed out, the more I began to embrace it. You Are More will have a large focus on motherhood and the season of raising young children, but it doesn’t mean that you can’t find something for you here if you aren’t a mom. I promise you there is something in this space that can encourage your heart no matter what season of life you are in. You Are More will primarily be a motherhood and lifestyle blog.

What is to come for You Are More?

A whole lot of fun! But really, this space is going to continue growing and evolving just as it has been from the beginning. I will be sharing with you bits of my motherhood journey and what the Lord is speaking and encouraging me in this walk of raising children. My motherhood journey is rooted in the foundation of my faith in Jesus and my heart to encourage you is birthed out of that faith. I hope to make you laugh, I hope to make you cry, I hope to make you think, I hope to encourage you, and I hope to help you realize that you aren’t alone. Motherhood is beautiful, and a little bit crazy, but together we will embrace that crazy and discover our worth! You are more!

There are some exciting giveaways around the corner and a community that is waiting just for you, I can’t wait to get to know you more!
