Hey friends,
I wanted to share something that made me smile this week.
Some of you have been connected to me for years. You’ve been clients, friends, ministry family, music supporters, people who have prayed for me, encouraged me, challenged me, and walked with me through different seasons.
And some of you are newer here. Maybe you found me through coaching, my writing, social media, a conversation, or through someone else in this community.
However you got here, I’m grateful you’re here.
This week, Begin Where You Are officially went out into the world.
And then I started getting messages like this.
There’s something about seeing the book sitting on somebody’s kitchen counter, next to their coffee, that made the whole thing feel real.
People are actually reading it.
Within the first few days, Begin Where You Are also climbed into the Top 30 New Releases in Christian Inspirational books on Amazon.
That’s exciting, of course. But I think what means even more to me is knowing that something I carried for a long time is finally finding its way into other people’s hands.
This book is about purpose, identity, transition, becoming, and learning to move forward even when you don’t have everything figured out.
It’s a reminder that you don’t have to wait until everything is perfect.
You can begin right where you are.
So first, thank you.
Thank you for supporting me, trusting me, reading what I write, listening to the music, working with me, sharing my work, praying for me, and being part of this journey.
And if you haven’t gotten your copy yet, I’d love for you to grab one.
If you already have it, would you help me get it into the hands of someone else who may need it? Send them the link. Share the book. Post the picture when yours arrives. And if you’ve started reading, leaving an Amazon review would mean a lot.

Seeing these books start to show up in people’s homes this week has been pretty special.
And I really do feel like we’re just getting started.
