Finding Power in Powerless Situations

When We Are Called to Encourage

Trying to get back into a running routine after starting the new job a few months ago, and the treadmill has definitely made that possible! I don’t mind a 4:00 AM jog in my garage. Listening to @davidgoggins to motivate me and think about how I can motivate my students. When we start our day challenging ourselves and setting our mindset, we are better prepared for the challenges we will face in the day. #mondaymotivation #runningonhope #iteach #unbrcable #brcastrong #momswhorun #momlife #teacherlife

Mommy, what does your shirt say?” “Survivor.” “So, you’re a survivor?” Just about to celebrate another trip around the sun! The road from 38 to 39 was challenging. Lots of deep thinking, intense prayer, deafening solitude, and hard decisions. One year after my cancer diagnosis (and successfully making it history), I’m still not anywhere close to where I thought I’d be. Some things I anticipated, but some changes were a very tough pill to swallow. Some days I question everything and every decision I’ve made. As if I could have played just one card differently that would have made the effects of this nearly inevitable disease less hard. I’ve learned to roll with this ebb and flow of feelings, though. I always find my way back to hope, although it can be a bleak road to get there some days. Originally, this was a birthday/badass-breast-cancer-beater post. But it’s also mental health day, so I had to be real. #breastcancerawareness #breastcancersurvivor #previvor #mentalhealthawareness #unbrcable #brca2 #itsokaynottobeokay

Y’all. It is HOT. Every morning, my first thought is, “no, it’s just too hot to run.” But, compared to the hard things I’ve had to drag my ass out of bed for this past year and the fact that hard things keep placing themselves at my tired feet, running in 90+ degrees in like 1,000% humidity is easy breezy. I hope to get back to blogging soon! Life seems to be keeping me especially busy making changes and transitions with little time to gather my thoughts. Until then, I’ll be running through this Texas summer (sometimes indoors) towards my next challenge. 💪🔥 #running #runnersofinstagram #momswhorun #lifewithcrohns #ibdwarrior #brcastrong #unbrcable #previvor #breastcancersurvivor #momlife #runningonhope #turnpaintopower #healthylifestyle #sweat #moveyourbody #changeyourmindchangeyourlife #texassummer

Quiet, waiting, peace, and patience...often more challenging than taking action. That’s where we meet anxiety and worry. Breathe in and out! #mondaymotivation #thewaitingisthehardestpart #lifestyle #mondayquotes #mondaymotivation #healthymind #patience #mindfulness #healthylifestyle
