In my previous blog, I talked about building the foundation for fortifying my life by strengthening my relationship with Jesus. Now that we've centered our lives around God, it's time to focus on mending our minds.

Mental health is so important—when you're not feeling good mentally, life can feel impossible. How can you take care of your family, work, keep up with your home, and manage everything else if you don’t prioritize your mental well-being?

As a mom, caring for myself—physically and mentally—often gets put on the back burner. Naturally, my kids will always come first. But the fact that I have three beautiful children relying on me makes it even more crucial that I take care of myself. I can’t be the best version of myself for them if I never do anything for myself.

Hello, you beautiful people! As I reflect on 2024, I’ve realized that somewhere along the way, I lost focus on myself. Between moving, caring for my family, and juggling countless other responsibilities, I forgot to prioritize my physical and mental well-being. So, in 2025, I’m making a change. This year, I’m committing to making myself a priority—to becoming healthier, stronger, more clear-headed, and most importantly, strengthening my relationship with the Lord. I’m excited to share my journey to Fortify my life through a multi-part series, and I hope you’ll follow along as I take my life to the next level.
