When “doing less” feels like not enough


Hey sis,

The other day I found myself overly emotional driving home from library time with my baby girl. It was a Friday, my schedule was wide open, and instead of feeling rested, I felt… un-useful. Almost like I hadn’t done anything “productive.”

Right now, I’m in a season where God has asked me to lay down my real estate business (I only take referrals now) and make room for something new He’s placing on my heart. But until that unfolds, most of my days look like dishes, laundry, cooking dinner, swim lessons, library trips, and caring for my little one.

And if I’m honest? As a high-achieving Christian woman entrepreneur, that shift hit me hard. The inner hustler in me felt purposeless, confused, and totally out of rhythm.

But on Day 12 of my 100 Days of Believing Bigger journey, God met me with a fresh reminder from Ephesians 2:10:
We are Christ’s workmanship, created in Him to do good works, which He prepared in advance for us to do.

Sis, that means even the unseen work, even the quiet work, even the “small” things—are still good works when God prepared them for us.

This truth gave me so much peace, and I share more about it in this week’s podcast episode. If you’ve ever felt stuck, purposeless, or like your season doesn’t “measure up,” I pray this conversation encourages you the way it encouraged me.

Tune in below.

Hey Reader, Last week, I had my very first board meeting for the organization God called me to build. The vision, the work, the plan that had been in my heart since 2020 was laid bare ... vulnerable and open, as I presented everything from who we serve, what we do, how we do it, and our next-year goals, all the way to our 2–5 year projections and even our 10–15 year roadmap. This wasn’t just a celebration moment though. It was a decision-making meeting. The kind where people break into rooms,...

Happy New Year, sis ✨ I know your inbox is probably overflowing with New Year offers and your mind may already be bombarded with new goals, habits, and things you feel pressure to change. So I don’t want this email to be long, I simply hope it meets you with encouragement, peace, and a gentle reminder of what truly matters as we step into this new year together. I want to share two charges God placed on my heart for 2026, and I believe they’ll be a blessing to you as well. 1. Strengthen...

Hey Reader, How are you? It’s been a while since I’ve shown up in your inbox, and life has been a little wild over here. My husband, baby, and I took a 14-hour drive from Milwaukee to New York to spend time with family. Our two-week trip somehow turned into almost a month!! And we’re squeezing in a Maryland stop to see one of my best friends. With all of that, I’ve been working part-time for a well-known ministry leader and continuing to build out this real estate program God put on my heart...
