New Year, New Blog: All the Details on the Upcoming Blog Relaunch

If you follow me on social media, you already know this announcement is coming. My friends on social media get first access to all the big news and announcements for the blog, so if you aren’t following me over there, be sure to do so now. You’ll be the first to know about big announcements and receive first access to awesome resources.

So what’s the deal with the blog relaunch?

Nothing is changing, yet everything is changing. This old blog here will keep the name, “You Are More.” But for some of you who have no idea why it’s called that, you’ll notice that handy little tagline at the bottom of my header. “Reclaiming your identity in the midst of motherhood.” Because, I get it mama. It is so easy to get lost in everything that motherhood asks of you. It’s hard not to lose your identity in the midst of being mom, but it’s so important that you do everything you can to reclaim it. Motherhood is a part of you, a part that can’t be removed, but it’s just a piece. There is so much more that makes up who you are. It’s my hope to encourage you to keep digging within deep and discovering your identity. Comparing what you think about yourself to what God says about you and uncovering the person that He has called you to be. Then, when you’ve started unpacking those truths, learning to flourish through intentional living. “You Are More” is here to stay…but it’s going to be much more.

New Look.

I am SO excited to drop the new look to you THIS FRIDAY! That’s right, new look coming to you on February 1st. Sometimes we all just need a breath of fresh air. Changing things around just gives us this awesome new exciting feeling and, well, it’s fun! The new look is going to make it easier for you to find exactly what you are looking for. It’s beautiful, feminine, light, airy, and I can’t wait to show it to you. Really. I’m on the edge of my seat. You’ll be able to find some of the most shared and loved posts on You Are More easily, and have access to what you need to flourish in motherhood.

New Mission.

Like I said before, You Are More isn’t going anywhere. In fact, it’s upping its game.  The mission of this space is to help you flourish in motherhood. I’m jumping all in with you. This is a mom tribe, moms who come together and share real life, the messy and beautiful, and push each other to flourish in it all. So I’m laying it all out for you. Real life motherhood. I’m sharing my experiences, tips, heartaches, challenges, and more. I want you to feel like you’re sitting across from your best friend pouring out your life story. If you need advice, if I’ve got any, I’ll offer it. If you need someone to listen, I’m there. If you need someone to just help you feel like you aren’t alone, trust me mama, I’ve been there. I’ll give you what I have, and I am hoping you’re sitting on the other side of that table giving up the same.

New Resources.

Remember how I said I want to give you everything I can? That’s where the resource library comes in. I have filled this awesome resource library with amazing resources to help you flourish as a mom. From routines, to schedules, to encouragement, and family planners…there is so much there. If you want access, all you have to do is sign up for the newsletter. My subscribers gained early access starting today, but it’s not too late for you to jump in. Just sign up below.

What to expect?

In short. Great things. Because this space is for you, for me, for a tribe of moms to come together and flourish in motherhood. This blog will focus on motherhood + homemaking with lifestyle thrown in between. You’ll find everything from motherhood, parenting, home organization, home decor, and more. If you’ve loved this space before, I promise you’ll love it even more. I’ve put so much time and prayer into what this space should be, and I never stopped thinking about you…the person reading this.

You deserve to exist, with the same grace and love You deserve to exist, with the same grace and love that you so freely give to your family. It’s not just about holding space for them; it’s about holding space for you, too.

You don’t have to shrink yourself to make room for others.

You deserve to take up space too.
Sometimes, the habits that helped us survive becom Sometimes, the habits that helped us survive become the hardest to unlearn. Those patterns once kept you safe, but now you’re learning they don’t need to anymore. 

Give yourself grace—you’re unlearning survival. Healing takes time, and with each layer you peel back, you’re discovering the person you’ve always been beneath the survival.

And if you’re anything like me, you’ll really learn to love her. ❤️
✨ NEW SEASON ✨ I’m not a big fan of change. ✨ NEW SEASON ✨

I’m not a big fan of change. My nervous system gets all panicky and tends to over research every possibility that could take place. It likes to tell me safety is in the details. 

But I know that’s not true.

This year has been a big year of growth for me in this department. Trauma told me control was my safety, but the truth was all I ever had was a false sense of control. 

This year has offered plenty of opportunities for me to say, “Okay God, you have my yes, wherever that leads.”

No over research. No over analyzing. No predicting every possibility. No trying to control the outcome.

Just a heart that says, “Yes.” 

Even when I don’t understand. Even when I’m nervous how it will turn out. Even when it feels like right now isn’t bad. Even when my heart’s confused. 

Even when….

God has been asking us both a lot lately, “Do I have your yes, no matter what that looks like?” Friday was the end of a season for Chad working at the Appliance Guys, and today starts a new season of a new company. It was NOT an easy decision, and it came with a lot of tears (mainly from me - are you surprised?). His boss, where he’s been for the last almost six years, has been an incredible support for our family as we walked through some of the hardest seasons of our family. They will always hold a special place in our heart.

But God said “it’s time” and my faith-filled husband said “Yes.” I have to admit, I don’t envy how hard this decision was for him. It affects us both, yes. But he had to walk it out. And I’m so grateful for His leadership and faith to Jesus to step into the next season when there are so many unknowns.

Sometimes, all God wants to know is does He have our “YES” no matter what that means. No matter what that changes. 

May I live my life in a way that has an open heart to hear from God and a willingness to say “YES” even when….

(PS he was so thrilled I made him take this photo. 😂 But I know this season will be one we forever ever want to remember, because God always shows His faithfulness).
I wonder if they would have chosen life for her. I wonder if they would have chosen life for her.

I wonder if they would have seen what was growing inside of her, and the fight that was about to come on the other side, if they would have said her life was worth saving.

I wonder if they would have discounted her before she had a chance. 

I wonder if they would have made a prediction about her quality of life and deemed her not worth the cost.

I wonder if they would have saw the life saving measures she would need and decided that it was worse to let her live.

I wonder if they would have saw everything that could go wrong, the bleak prognosis, and compared her to statistics. 

I wonder if they would have made a choice to encourage a decision that robbed us all of the miracle we see today.

Whether 48 hours or 4 years - her life has changed mine for the better. It’s heartbreaking to think someone may have once told me she wasn’t worth it.
