Thank you for joining my new adventure! This blog is an opportunity to learn from each other. Before we dive into a myriad of topics and chatter away, let’s get some answers out of the way!

Why “God first, people always”?

This has been a personal philosophy for 20+ years. In future posts you will gain some insights of where I have been and what I have done personally and professionally. Through it all, this philosophy (unbeknownst to me for a long time) carried me through to my most vulnerable times and the periods of spiritual dryness. This blog name may not be catchy. I could have used a blog name generator or other tools (there are so many!). If so, none of this would be authentic which would defeat the entire purpose of this effort.

Why now?

I could lie. The truth is that I began exploring the blogging thing months ago in 2021 when COVID-19 seemed to be settling down (so the world thought!). Life got busy, soon you’ll understand what that means in my life! Time went on….and I decided that there is no perfect time, perfect way, and certainly not the perfect website. I do everything in life as a student first. I LOVE LEARNING! So, to remove the stress out of it all I began this as a project to learn how to do it. There it is! No specific plan, or lifelong goal – just learning how to do it and trying my best. I am passionate about different topics. Categories of posts may grow or shift as posts come alive. Thank you for your patience in advance!

What to expect?

Kindness, honesty, and vulnerability will likely show. Life has taught me to be kind to others. Is that a God thing? Maybe. Maybe not. This is not a faith-focus blog. I do expect it to be as positive and collaborative as possible. The goal is to share so that all that come across this space leave either inspired, empowered, or challenged with new perspectives. I’m not here to change anyone. I am simply sharing what may be worth for others trying to figure things out in life! I love helping others and this is one way to serve my purpose. This page will not be for everyone. That’s OKAY! This is expected to be a judgement free zone.
