Speaking

Interested in hope-filled words
at your next event?

 

I not only write, but I speak, too! With over fifteen years of experience in public speaking, I offer real encouragement for real life to larger groups and various audiences. If you’re looking for hope-filled words at your next event, contact me here.

We relate to one another as we share our real-life, hope-filled experiences. My life lessons and the personal stories I share help others not feel so alone or isolated. After all, we’re all in this together!

Whether it’s sharing messages based on scripture during church services, encouraging women in large business groups, offering hope through uplifting talks at women’s gatherings and luncheons, or leading small groups and Bible studies, I’m honored and humbled to share such life-filled words!

Some topics I speak on include:

  • Blooming Where You’re Planted
  • Living Faith-Filled and Fearless
  • Goodbye Guilt
  • Beyond Brokenness
  • Living Loved
  • Embracing Who You Are
  • Why Me, Lord?
  • It’s All Going to Be Okay
  • Burned-out on Busy
  • Rediscovering Christmas
  • Simplify the Season

Quarterly I host an evening of encouragement for women called BYOB and B (Bring Your Own Bible and Buddy) in the Cedar Rapids, Iowa area. Designed to equip, refresh, and encourage women, the topics vary according to the season or time of year. Come check out the next one!

I’d love to encourage your group or church! Contact me if you or someone you know would be blessed by encouraging, life-filled words.

Just for you!

Real encouragement, updates, and free resources from me.

I woke in awe today because in those first eye-opening moments, I pondered the truth of Easter. 

Jesus defeated death... for me. For me.

Why? How? All the things I've done, said, thought... I am undeserving of this kind of gift.

But I guess that's the point, isn't it? If I deserved it, it wouldn't mean as much as it does today. He rose from the grave because I didn't deserve it. He rose from the grave, so someday I will, too. In the meantime, because I believe in this truth, I get to live in the hope of eternal life with Him. Forever. 

What a hope. What a love. What a Savior.

Ever missed your exit because your brain took its own detour?

Life is too important to live it distracted.

Today's the day we draw a line in the sand and say,
Aren't you grateful that God never gets distracted? 🙋‍♀️

He's always willing to help us when we do.

Don't try to battle today's distractions on your own. Ask God to help you overcome them. 

This is a secret to living an abundant life. 🙇‍♀️

Am I the only one?

Distraction doesn’t always show up loud and obvious.
Sometimes it’s subtle.
Convenient.
Even well-intentioned.

But here’s the truth:
if the enemy of our souls can't destroy us—he will do all he can to distract us.

Let’s return.
Refocus.
Reopen the Word.
God’s not mad at us—we’re just one “Jesus, I am back” away from real connection.

Distractions are just annoyances in life, right? They are that, but are so much more.🚨

We live in a world of distraction, so naturally, we will be enticed by the distractions of this world. Distractions aren't just aren't annoyances, however, but they are actually keeping us from living the abundant life God has for us. 🤦‍♀️

Living distracted affects everything we do and how we live, including our relationships, our peace, and our ability to hear God's voice clearly. They are causing us to miss priceless moments happening right in front of us every single day. 🙋‍♀️

When we are distracted, we almost become like the seed sown among thorns in Matthew 13:22, where distractions choke out the life of the Word in us. We become stagnant and ineffective in our faith and life. Here's what it says,
Funny how fast we can go from focus to full-on Googling the most random things, right?

Let this be your gentle reminder—you don’t have to chase every thought that pops into your head.

Some things can wait.
Some tabs don’t need to be opened.
And no, you don’t need to reorganize your junk drawer right now.

Let’s choose presence over distraction today. (But also… yes, penguins do have knees.)
