Hey Friends! I’m Alex

a Florida native and wife to a local Pastor/Lawyer, community activist, and all-around awesome guy, Steve. I’m also a proud #girlmom to my two best girls, Alia and Mia.

I spent most of my 20s and 30s investing in my education and using that wealth of knowledge to educate others as a secondary math teacher for over 15 years.  Now here I am, a full 2 decades later, using my life experiences as a stay-at-home mom, wife, and dedicated disciple of Christ, to share how I manage all of “the things” while also coping with a chronic mental illness.

I am passionate about sharing my testimony with others, especially moms, in order to normalize the importance of self love and care so that we can remain mentally and emotionally balanced and be there for those who rely on us.  I hope that I can encourage you, as I share my life through this blog, to not just survive, but thrive as a mom and a wife and in doing so, give honor and praise to Jesus Christ!

Thanks for joining me on this journey.  I hope that you can find a place of comfort and peace here with me and be inspired to keep going on your own journey to wellness.
