• I’m laying in bed tonight feeling our sweet little baby kicking and flipping. It’s one of those wild things in life that just takes your breath away. . Did you know I was adopted? I don’t think about it everyday, but being pregnant makes the reality of what that meant for my biological mom SO real. To feel this tiny babe kick and know that one day soon I’ll hold him or her in my arms? Wild. And to think of a woman out there who chose 9 months of body changes, crazy emotions, and tiny little kicks of reminders that this baby will never be hers? Wild. . She endured so much to give me a chance. I don’t know who she is, but I’m grateful for her. And for little kicks. 💗🌈💙

  • I’ve been off work for over two weeks as we’ve packed, moved, and are in the process of trying to get settled in our new home. It has been a whirlwind! For the gal who likes things done and now, this has been the hardest move yet as we won’t begin renovations for a few months (Lord willing then!). I’m dreaming of a brightly colored home like I’ve never done before with lots of pattern, so it is probably good that we’re waiting to begin so I can get a good plan in place! Wallpaper samples are coming in and I can’t wait to show you what I’m planning! . A couple days ago I asked on stories for color and pattern loving designer recs that offer e-design to help me get an extra pair of eyes on my concepts. Y’all came in with a ton of great suggestions! A few friends have asked for recommendations too, but it is hard to keep track of all of them in my story folder. If you have a designer you love, would you tag them here? That way we can all get a little extra help! I’ll cover the whole renovation process on @fifthhomebliss so be sure to follow along for the fun! #fifthhomebliss (Captured by @sarahdipityphotos)

  • Celebrating 32 🌈🎉💗 J wrote his first “sweet” card ever (haha!) to me this morning and then we had a breakfast date just because! I love him and our little life we’ve built. Every year just keeps getting better! 🎂🥰

  • Motherhood + Entrepreneurship. Two dreams of mine that bloom side my side. It was never a question of one or the other for me. . It isn’t always sunshine and giggles. This is hard work. It is good work. But the more I lean into what works for our family and rest in enough, I find that it IS mostly filled with slow and sweet moments of joy. . This week @creativeatheart I peeled back the curtain to parts of my story that don’t perfectly fit in Insta squares or website words. The story of how intimately my journey to entrepreneurship has been woven together through motherhood and how it ultimately shines through in every facet of my brand. It was hard and scary to share that part of my heart that stays mostly tucked away to over 150 women. And while my hope is that each and every attendee found truth and hope in my story, I think I learned the biggest lesson out of everyone in the room: Saying yes to what feels hard, like sharing your story, can truly impact people in ways you would never imagine. . I was honored to be asked to share by @katschmoyer who is so intentional about who walks on that stage and utterly humbled by the one on one moments with women who in turn shared their stories and revelations with me. It was powerful and real and a time I will carry with me always. . C@H isn’t just a conference. It’s a family. And it is precious to me that I’ve gotten to carry two of my babies along for my favorite business experience of the year. What a joy! 🌈💗 #creativeatheart #creativeatheartround9 #herestothecreatives

  • CUE THE CONFETTI CANNON!!! 🎉🎉🎉 Introducing @fifthhomebliss! We are SO excited to welcome you to our brand new business! . We’re Jeremy, Megan, Kennedy, Esley, and Crew. A young family of five with an unusual twist: We’re set for retirement! . We’re not trust fund babies, not millionaires, and we didn’t win the lottery. How’d we do it? . We invest in real estate. We buy a house, fix it up, turn it into a rental property, and move to the next house when the time is right! . Next month we’re closing on our fifth house (and already have a signed lease on this one!) and after we sat down to look at the numbers, we realized the freedom that would bring. . @fifthhomebliss started as a little idea a couple years ago. I was sitting at @creativeatheart Round 6 listening to my now biz coach, @thegrahamcochrane and his wife @shaycochrane, share about passive profit. They talked about a guy who sold PDF guides on the process of buying carpet. Carpet. And all the sudden it hit me. J should teach what we’ve learned and done. . At first he was not about it. He’s the introverted/don’t put me in the spotlight kinda person. But real estate has changed our life. It has opened up options we never could have imagined. He gets to work from home and we get to explore adventures and work that really fuels us. We can work for today without fear of the future. Our own version of bliss. . And after many many requests from our friends and peers, we are excited to peel back the curtain and share with you all we know! Go check out our website @fifthhomebliss! We’d love to know what you think! 🎉🏡🌈 #fifthhomebliss

  • What a JOY! . This week has been so fun. I’m so grateful for each of you who snagged The Entrepreneurship Bundle. This is my Dream! To be able to run a business AND be a Mama. Two things that often feel and are spoken in opposing ways. But goodness gracious they just don’t have to be. . I’ve got two big passions in this biz. To serve you, my people, really well. To be open and real and share in the trials and triumphs of small biz hood right alongside you. And to raise these babies of ours to be women and men who know for a fact they can go after their big dreams. The plural kind. The multi-faceted life kind. They can have families and do whatever lights their heart on fire. . So thank you. Every time you support this little business of mine, you make a world of impact in my world! 💗🎉🌈 (Captured by @sarahdipityphotos) #theentrepreneurshipbundle
