Do you ever feel a pull to do something and the inspiration keeps presenting itself.  I feel that way a lot. I once read that we are the most changed by the people we meet, books that we read, and the places that we travel.  I believe that. I believe that miracles are possible and are all around us, we must be open to the direction in which they move us. We must be open to seeing them and realizing that what we are seeing is presented to us at the right moment to move us in the right direction.  The book The Judgement Detox by Gabby Bernstein is my current read and it is a juicy one.  It has helped me already in so many ways. Specifically it has reminded me to pray about the next step and look for the signs all around me.  If the sign makes my body retreat inward with fear, then it is not the message that I need to focus on.  However, if it makes my body expand, and feel uplifted, then it is opening a door to the path in which I am meant to lead.  Our bodies help guide us and that is why God gave us intuition. It has been a long time since I posted a blogpost because I have been very engulfed in my own self-development, homeschooling, trying to be a present mama and wife, diving deeper into my faith, inspiring other women to expand their world to create the life of their dreams and helping them to share the beauty and healing of essential oils.  There has also been a difficult trial that my family has been in the depths of over the past nine months that I will share more about at a later time.  This project has still been in full force because it is my dream work.  It feeds my soul. It is my ministry. It gives me hope to bring others hope.

This is where I fix my gaze. He suffered, died, was buried, & rose again. He will pull you from the depths of your suffering. He is there for all of us, for we just need to reach out to him.

she will bring you into her world.
she will help you find peace.
she will offer you hope.
she will blend you up a magical potion to help what may be ailing you.
she will make you a cup of tea.
she will embrace your words.
she will send you home with fresh herbs from her garden.
and she will pray for you long after you have left.

Most of my days are spent getting lost in them. Lost in the greatest sense of the word. I used to dread Monday’s with every ounce of my being and now I cherish them. For Mondays are a fresh beginning. We don’t wake up to alarms (although we have a little dog that often wants to play EARLY in the morning). I often throw on a little mascara and put a braid in my hair. We turn on music, which usually consists of a Disney soundtrack. I ask Jesus for protection, blessings, abundance and miracles for my family and those who cross my path. I put delicious essential oils in diffusers throughout my home, to enhance our moods, well-being, health, and spirituality (yep, they do all of that😘). I then make a big cup of coffee with coconut oil and gelatin. I oil pull with coconut oil and usually a few drops of OnGuard. I visualize my intentions for the day, then feed the dogs. Then I cut up some fruit, cheese, and throw in a few nuts and chat with my little person. Sometimes she asks me deep questions, like, “why does it get dark or what makes stars shine or why do I have gums in my mouth.” And sometimes she begs me for candy and protests her meal. I always say that she must have healthy food first. Then our day unfolds. We play outside, I teach her homeschool, and we share dōTERRA.

I send my love (aka my amazing husband) pictures of our day and some of the funny things that were said. We somehow create a sink full of dishes and piles of laundry and messes in every room. We will never have this day again, so I try to just enjoy its gifts. Thank you ordinary and extraordinary day.

Many years ago I prayed that God would change my heart and nearly one month later I found out that I needed to have heart surgery. He performed a miracle before my eyes. He heard my prayers and responded boldly. The journey of healing was the first of many trials that brought me to my knees. Where I have been broken and cracked open, I have found the greatest joys in my life. Your journey is crafted by the depth of your prayers. Pray boldly for great gifts, abundance, and purpose, for that is where you find pure joy and it comes after the sorrows. My dear, no one ever said it would be easy, but it will be worth it. 💛

Everyday I fall more in love with the work that I was called to do. I am so honored that I share something that transforms lives. I took a leap of faith and I never looked back because, you see, that is what must happen for us to transform into who we are meant to be. Through the messy journey, I found my calling. I made a promise that I would share that journey with others who are crying out for hope. Every single trial brought me to this place. Now, I get to link arms with others and bring them hope. I dreamed of helping other women who want nothing more than to be with their babies and live an abundant life. And now, through the grace of God, and the Inspiring Hope Project, I get to do just that. Through generous essential oil donations from other beautiful mothers and women all over our country, my dream is taking flight. Today I have the honor of packaging up oils for a beautiful mother who prayed for hope and it landed on my heart and now she too can have the beautiful blessings of these oils and this uplifting community surrounding her. With tears streaming from my eyes and a heart so full, I package up these blessings and send it across the country into the hands of a mother. And I will be here praying for you on your journey. xo-Angela
