Instead of Thisâ€Ķ We Say This
This is how we study the word in our house. We replace certain words with the original word, translation or true meaning. It really helps put things in perspective. #biblejournaling #yeshua #biblestudy #biblestudynotes #understandingthebible

DO NOT break no contact. Especially when you miss him . Do this instead :
1. Record a video diary saying everything you want to say to him (don't send it). 2. Write the message in your Notes app and let it sit for 24 hours. 3. If you have someone, send it to them. 4. Go on a 15-minute "dopamine walk" no phone, just move your body and let the urge pass.

A person's hands holding two iced coffee cups, with text overlay presenting another alternative phrase: "Oh, awesome, thank you for pointing this out! Looks like an oversight- I'll go update that after our call."
What to Say at Work Instead of Apologizing💅🏞
Listen, don’t misunderstand me- if you act up or are rude or say something in the best of the moment, etc, then definitely apologize. However, as women, we apologize way too much at work. Truth is, most things we say sorry about don’t need an apology! Stop the inner dialogue and guilt already!

Writing Instead of Spiraling
Sometimes spiraling isn’t about the problem. It’s about having nowhere for your thoughts to go. This is how I use writing as a grounding tool, not a productivity task. Just a quiet place to put what feels loud. Save this for later ðŸĪ #writingtherapy #gentleroutines #journalingpra

Okay but hear me out. Because you’re looking at the queen of putting Christmas on a credit card and goingninto debt. We had to do it every year then work like crazy to pay it all off in the new year. I know how hard it is to start the year in the negative and to feel like you’ll never get ahead. Th

I Wish I Could Say Out Loud!
There are so many things I don’t say out loud, not because they’re wrong, but because I know how people react when women are honest. I wish I could admit that sometimes I don’t enjoy being strong. That sometimes I want to be left alone instead of being praised for “handling everything.” I wish I

Switzerland too expensive? Go here instead!
