I talk about how boundaries aren’t meant to control other people. Boundaries are about telling people when they hurt you emotionally. So when someone crosses a boundary that is yours even if you don’t know it’s a boundary you will know based on how you feel. If someone has crossed one you will feel hurt. And it’s okay to voice that. In fact it’s you honoring your own boundary. And therefore honoring your own truth.
I talk about my struggle with beating myself up mentally and going to church and being reminded that I am loved by my Creator.
I talk about my current life situation and how I had agreed to moving in the RV when I didn’t really want to because I didn’t want to get into an argument.

I give me my current life situation. My struggle with my postpartum depression. And my struggle with my toddlers regression and struggle with my husband. I’m going through a bit of a rough patch in life. My hope is if you find yourself in a rough season of life that you will know you are not alone.
I give a personal account on how over the years I have stopped asking for help out of fear of getting it held over my head. Or having people cancel on me last minute. But the truth is, not everyone is going to hurt you or use you for their own personal gain. So when you do need help make sure that that person is a person of integrity.
I talk about how I’ve chosen how to let go for my worries and stresses in my life. And choosing to allow things to play out the way they are meant too. It’s so easy to let things steal our peace and joy in this life. Choosing to focus on the good is hard, especially when we live in a world that promotes fear. “We may make our plans but the Lord determinations our steps.” Proverbs 16:9
I give a quick update on my current life situation. And I talk about the question What do you want? What do you want out of life? I think far to many times we just pick a direction without really thinking about where we are going. Life happens to us to much. And then once you figure out what you want write down the goals and steps that you are going to take to get there.
I talk about my own personal journey on how I had to learn to be content. Adjusting to living in an RV. And being available to our children. Not always working long hours especially if you don’t have too. Because family time is more important then having a whole bunch of money.
I talk about how you judge someone will then turn and be the level that you will be judged. Karma as some people call it.
I talk about how society would have you believe that you aren’t successful unless you are wealthy, have a big house, and a nice car. Don’t fall for it. Having nice things isn’t bad, but it doesn’t define you. What defines you is who you are as a person. And how you treat other people.
1. Having their back, 2. Keep their dirty laundry to yourself, 3. Telling them what they need to hear not what they want to hear, 4. Accepting that that person has a life outside of you. 5. Want what’s best for your friend, 6. Except them for who they are and where they are at.
I give two main reasons why I think woman come off as being crazy. 1st we have past trauma in our lives we haven’t dwelt with. And 2nd we have been told from society that it’s okay to have an emotion and react without considering how it will effect the people around us.
I talk about engagement and marriage and sitting down and explaining what we expect from one other as we get our routines down. Also consider if the person you are with is someone you really want to be with forever.
I talk about my own journey. From living people hard and being disappointed when they left. To putting up walls so no one could hurt me. To breaking down the walls one brick at a time.
I provide several steps on what I think are good ways to fight suicidal thoughts 1. Find someone to talk to about how you are feeling 2. The storm isn’t forever 3. Gratitude is key 4. Get your mind off your thoughts 5. Feel your emotions 6. Listen to your body
I talk about me deciding to stick my ground. When I say no I mean no. When I say yes I mean yes.
I talk about honoring your mother and father. And authority, not because they deserve it but because that’s what you would want. The golden rule, “Treat others the way you want to be treated.
I give a personal story about this topic. And then I call us to start being more intentional about what we say we are going to do. Let’s follow through on the things that we say we are going to do.
I talk about allowing yourself to rest, to reset, to show yourself a form of self love. When you are feeling burnt out and you need some time away from the kiddos. Take that time, don’t allow yourself to guilt yourself if you genuinely need the time to rest. Resting when you need it is self love.
