The early years of motherhood can be intense

Oh, I know.

If you’re anything like me, you juggle work responsibilities, keeping a home, and nurturing a young family. With little one(s) running around, life can get hectic, even chaotic!

It’s easy to get disgruntled, neglect our spiritual nourishment, and live on auto-pilot just wishing the tough moments away.

But I believe this life isn’t meant to be merely endured. Motherhood isn’t just a “season of suffering” to tide over.

You and I are meant to blossom and thrive.

We can find God’s purpose, presence, and peace in the midst of it all.

What we need are reminders, and that’s why I started The Hearthmakers.

to share stories,

I hope my stories feel like chit-chatting over coffee with an old friend. And maybe you’ll pick up a tip or two from my book, but mostly I pray you’ll find encouragement and solidarity in my struggles and learning moments.

to help you remember God’s goodness,

I also have a small but growing collection of home wares and scripture-based goods here. These are designed to serve as visual reminders of God’s enduring word while beautifying your home.

to make your day,

I’m building a repository of freebies here too - little things that you can download and use to beautify your digital spaces, or however you like!

and to be a friend

On this journey, let’s walk alongside each other. We can share in the laughter, the tears, and the small, sacred moments that make motherhood beautiful.
