Welcome to my story! I feel it’s important for you as a reader to know a little bit about me, especially since I am going to be sharing some very personal, intimate details of my daily life. First the pragmatics. I am a 30’s something woman and have been married to my husband for 15 wonderful, chaotic years. We have five children ranging in ages from teenager to toddler and are expecting baby #6 in early 2021. I have a MBA and for most of my adult life have been working in the non-profit/healthcare sectors, usually in some type of supervisory position.
My background may sound unassuming and “normal,” but for me it played a big part in creating the controlling, anxious, overly-driven woman that I have become today. Please understand, I think women can do anything and everything they want, and I have no ill-feelings about female success outside of the home. However, for me personally, I had to bring myself back into the home in a more surrendered, biblical way in order to find true peace.
Throughout my posts I will do my best to explain the meaning of “surrendered” as I see it, as well as explain what it is NOT. I will use real stories, and I won’t hold back. I will not pretend that this road I am on is one of only sunshine and roses, as it in fact has been the most rewarding yet most difficult path I have ever traveled. I will also never attempt to force any person to adopt my lifestyle, or to turn away from whatever works for them. I carry no judgment of how others live their lives, and I hope for the same respect.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. Please, if you ever have questions do not hesitate to ask; I will not be offended. Peace, love and joy to all!
