✨ Feeling the December Squeeze?


Hey Sweet Reader,

🎄Are you feeling the December squeeze?

I don’t know about you, but December tends to frazzle and unravel me if I’m not careful. The days feel full, the lists get long, and even the normal tasks somehow feel heavier this time of year. That’s exactly why I’m so passionate about having a simple plan for December.

There are two things that I’ve found incredibly helpful in creating Christmas Calm:

  1. Starting each day with Jesus
    When I begin with Scripture and a moment to breathe in His presence, everything settles. My heart softens, my perspective shifts, and I feel less like I’m spinning and more like I’m being held. Even five minutes with the Lord can anchor an entire day.
  2. Having a gentle, doable plan
    Not a color-coded, impossible schedule… but a simple guide that keeps me focused on what truly matters. A few intentional steps each day help me enjoy my family instead of rushing past the moments I’ll later wish I’d savored.

When I pair these two together, December becomes calmer, sweeter, and so much more meaningful.

And this is exactly why I created the Creating Christmas Calm Bootcamp—because I know firsthand how quickly the season can slip into overwhelm. Inside the Bootcamp, you’ll find two beautiful sections designed to help your heart and your home:

🎄 Two Sections Covered in the Bootcamp:

1) Christ-Centered Devotional Section

Video devotionals and journaling art that walk you from Genesis all the way to the birth of Jesus—helping you slow down and savor the grand story leading to Christmas.

2) Practical Christmas Prep Section

Videos that help you tackle your home, create calm, and follow a simple rhythm of preparation so you can get everything done with much less stress.

It’s a gentle blend of spiritual encouragement and practical guidance—exactly what so many of us need in December.

If your December already feels a little tight around the edges… you’re not alone. And you don’t have to walk through this season feeling frazzled or behind. There is a calmer way, and I’d love to walk with you through it.

🎄 You can learn more about the Creating Christmas Calm Bootcamp here.

Sweet friend, I hope your December is filled with more peace than pressure and more Jesus than hurry. I’m cheering you on.

How to Begin the New Year with Jesus

Hey Sweet Reader,It's hard to believe Christmas is over and today is New Year's Eve! I hope you have a Blessed New Year and that the resources I'm sharing with you today will help prepare you for the year God has in store for you.Christmas looks different for each of us.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, sweet Reader, I’ll be stepping fully offline from December 21–31 to rest, be present with my family, and prepare my heart for the new year. During this time, I won’t be sharing devotionals, interacting in Jesus Journaling, sending emails, or responding to messages. Thank you for your grace and understanding. I’m so grateful for you and look forward to reconnecting in January. “Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10 I hope your Christmas is filled with peace and joy,...

Hey Sweet Reader, Do you ever feel like trusting God is less like a gentle step forward and more like a leap of faith? Almost like you’re standing on the edge of a wide chasm, praying His arms really are there to catch you? Life has this way of twisting and turning in directions we never expected. And honestly?Most of it isn’t easy. Some seasons are downright hard. While I was reading and writing out the verses for our Christmas Bible Reading Plan (you are doing it with me, right?) I found...
