Faith Quotes

These are some of my favorite faith-based quotes. And while most of them come out of the Bible they can be inspiring even if that’s not your “thing.”

I encourage you to read the quotes as if they came from any source, then give them a chance to speak to you as any other phrase or sentence might.

If you’re a quote lover like me, I hope these quotes give you something to think about. And even if you’re not, I hope at least one of these encouraged you to appreciate yourself and the beautiful, unique person that you are.

I’ll admit it. I’m scared, but I’m also hopeful.

Body Image and Pregnancy

Body Image and Pregnancy

Body image can be difficult even at the best of times. But when your body is changing, almost daily, it can be even more of a challenge.

Some women are able to let go of all body-image issues throughout pregnancy (I’m going to get big no matter what, so whatever), some of us are still hyper aware of every little detail.

Pregnant or not, it’s important to realize we think about our own bodies more than anyone else does.
