Why Is It So Hard to Be Disciplined? {Final Check-In}

May 28, 2018 by Courtney 12 Comments

We’ve reached the end of the 31-Day Habit Tracking Series and today is the final check-in. This month is ending but a new month is beginning!  And I love new beginnings! If you have struggled this past month, remember that progress is progress…even if it seems small.  And you have a chance to begin – again – every single month.  Do not give up! In the summer of 2011, I was invited to be a part of Candace Cameron Bure’s ReShaping It All book club.  I made this video below for her website and it fits perfectly as encouragement for our final check-in.

The 31-Day Habit Tracking Challenge Begins! {Week 1}

April 30, 2018 by Courtney 199 Comments

Welcome to the “31-Day Habit Tracking Challenge”! If you have followed along for some of my other series with challenges, then you know that I love to start these challenges out in prayer, by lighting a candle every morning in my kitchen. These challenges will be no different.  We can try to muster a lot of self-will to accomplish our goals but I’ve found this to be true, “the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.” (Matthew 26:41) So we are going to need morning prayers. every. single. morning! No exceptions.  Many of our obstacles in life are not just […]

For Days When You Look in the Mirror and Don’t Like Your Body

March 29, 2018 by Courtney 20 Comments

I’ve always struggled with my weight.  I wrote about it a long time ago here on the blog and well it’s pretty much 9 years later and the same ol’ story. I grew up comparing myself to my super thin sisters and since I was always the “curvy” sister due to my unique eating habits (ie. my ability to rapidly eat a bag of potato chips in one sitting), I’ve always felt frustrated with my weight.  I have had a few years in my life, where I was thin and fit. But most of the time, I’ve just struggled with it. Do […]

Introducing Women Living Well’s 3-Month Habit Trackers

February 18, 2018 by Courtney 25 Comments

I love spring!  Things that look dead – come alive.  It’s a time for rebirth and renewal.  Soon, the flowers will bloom, the winter coats, boots and gloves will be shoved to the back of the closet and the kids will be off for spring break. Many of us made new year’s resolutions and by February 1st, we had given up.  I find the months of January and February very hard months to jump start anything new in my life.  In Ohio, it’s cold, dark and cozy and all I want to do is eat a big bowl of comfort food […]

How To Live Your Priorities

April 21, 2015 by Courtney 41 Comments

{Cue the Confetti!} It’s our very first Q & A Wednesday! Over 2,000 of you took a survey last week and the #1 question you all asked was: How do you juggle it all? I know your life is very full just like mine.  Every woman I talk to is SO busy. Sometimes we can look into someone else’s life and feel like we are not measuring up or like we must be doing something wrong, because we are just so exhausted. Watch this video below to find out how I juggle my responsibilities (and my exhaustion) and how YOU can live […]

I Stumble A Lot!

May 30, 2011 by Courtney 24 Comments

We are now up to chapter 3 in our James Video Series!  This chapter is a HARD one for me. It really points out so many flaws that I have. I am a woman of many words  lol! and Proverbs 10:19 says “When words are many, sin is not absent. But he who holds his tongue is wise.” James 3 says that NO man can tame the tongue. It is filled with deadly poison. I long to be a woman who is filled with life giving words. Who is filled with grace and mercy. But the reality is – I stumble in many […]

How To Make Your Home Sing!

October 11, 2010 by Courtney 33 Comments

Last week we had a two-fold challenge, “light a candle and every time you see the glimmer of it pray for peace in your home“. I want to encourage you to keep your candles and prayers going.   This week’s challenge is two-fold also: Play soft music everyday in your home. Choose worship, classical or another form of peaceful music that the family enjoys. Focus on using peaceful words and maintaining peaceful relationships. Remind your family to avoid seething anger, tattling, criticism or back talk. Role model gentleness this week.   Let’s start with your music choice. If you need […]

I am SO Tired!

January 11, 2010 by Courtney 11 Comments

“I am so tired.” Are those words that you think quite commonly? Me too! I read a crazy statistic that said “In 1850 Americans crawled into bed at a reasonable hour and slept an average of 9.5 hours a night. By 1910, half the country had electricity, but our recent ancestors were still breathing evenly with their eyes closed, on average, nine hours a night. By 1950 an average night’s sleep decreased to 8 hours. And by 2008, Americans, on average, go 6.5 hours of sleep a night.” – Kathy Peel – America’s Family Manager We are a sleep deprived […]
