Buy The Jean’s That Fit…

When I was 6, a kid on the playground called me fat and I haven’t been the same since. I was six. Then in fourth grade, someone took a picture of me during my history presentation and I learned how to look at myself with disgust. “Ew, I look so fat.” “That’s such a bad [...]

The Thrill of Hope…

We will hear it a lot in the next few days…2020 was a hard year. And it was.  2020 will be forever marked with some terrible statistics which (tragically) are a neighbor’s personal story and some of us are gone too soon. If we fail to acknowledge that to us what might be a twisted [...]

When It’s Hard To Make Decisions…

I care deeply about what other people think of me. According to my life coach (also- bless her) I care more about the voices of those who hold a high seat in my inner counsel. I am a 6 on the enneagram, and I am convinced 6’s have a REALLY hard time hearing the voice [...]

Hearing Hard Things…

This week I received some hard news. It caught me off guard, but even in that moment I realized how gracious God was that I happened to be in my parked car, it was a Saturday when I didn’t have a lot of plans, and I was able to take in what was happening and [...]

To Be Honest…

To Be Honest…

To be honest...I'm kind of sick of feeling like that I'm not doing enough for God. And here's why...because that feeling of inadequacy isn't FROM God.   It's coming from people and posts and agendas and opinions that try to elevate their human holiness by preaching at the world to fall in line with standards [...]

Celeste + Brandon Engagement Story…

On the morning of June 14th, 2018 I had no clue what was going to happen... I drank my coffee, went to work, came home, and changed because my friend Abi who had moved back to COS said that she wanted to practice some photography shots with the mountains in Red Rock Canyon. To be [...]

Dream On, Dreamers…

The other day Brandon and I went to a coffee shop and just left space to be able to dream. It was absolute perfection to me. It's what I did all the time when I was single. We ventured out on a rainy day, to our favorite local coffee shop on the river, and I [...]

Marks Made By Mental Health…

May 16, 2019by Celeste ElizabethLeave a Comment on Marks Made By Mental Health…

May is Mental Health Awareness month and I’ve been super encouraged by people who have raised awareness about the reality of mental health. So many more people struggle with this reality than we think...from anxiety to postpartum depression to anxiety disorders some of us have never heard of. Mental health issues span wider than we [...]

Fighting Fear…

The last post I wrote was Fringing Fear...talking about how fear and anxiety always seem to be licking at my heels. During our engagement season, my fear was probably the worst it had been in a long time. Since that time I couldn't get on a plane. I've also written often that I have been [...]
