Why Peace & Purpose is so Important
The Purpose of life is Peace. This is one of the greatest lessons life has ever taught me. This is also what I’ve come to find I need to remind myself of DAILY in order to recenter myself, release worry, and calm anxiousness I’ve struggled with my whole life.
How to Find Happiness in Life
Happiness…it’s what we’re all after.. What makes life worthwhile, am I right? But why does it feel like such a struggle sometimes. Believe it or not, it actually makes no logical sense that I have never faced full on depression or completely derailed in life. No really… it’s actually something my doctors, therapists, and personal coaches have all told me.
Read this when you feel alone in what your purpose is…
I was diagnosed with cancer for the second time not too long after my mother passed away. I can’t fully explain all the emotions I was feeling during this time but despite the sadness, pain, and fear it was such a pivotal moment in my life.
6 Questions to Ask Yourself When You Don’t Know Your Next Move
We all go through phases in life where we start to question just about everything in life. From the outside looking in everything might seem great…. happy & successful even. But internally you’re feeling completely lost and stuck. You’re struggling with who you are, what you want, what you’re really made for. Maybe you’re going through some major life transitions, facing loss, insecurities, a breakup, or just feeling disconnected from yourself….

Ladies Living on Purpose Feature
Stories of Empowering Women
Overcomers who are leaning into their adversity as a way to rise up in life.
I am just getting this off the ground but I see it giving so much hope, inspiration, and strength to people all over the world🙏
This is a project near and dear to my heart. Throughout the years of trauma and adversity in my own life, I came to find that sometimes hearing powerful stories of other women facing adversity gave me hope and strengthened my spirit to maintain a positive outlook and persevere through.
As time went on I came to realize we all have a story, we all face pain and adversity… and in sharing those stories we feel more connected, more empowered to rise above what tries to knock us down. With this powerful realization the idea for Ladies Living on Purpose was born.
This is a place for me to share stories of wildly empowering women. To highlight overcomers and true warriors in life who have not only leaned into their adversity, struggle, & pain, but have maintained a positive outlook….have used it to rise up and live more intentionally in their life.
My hope is that in sharing this we will be able to inspire others to find the power in their own story. Help people realize that while pain doesn’t have to be our purpose… it can serve some purpose. It can empower people going through tough times to find the strength and perseverance to not only get through it, but to use it as a platform for transformative change in life.
It will enable more and more people to tap into the personal power they have over their own life so they can truly LIVE & THRIVE in their life.
With that I am honored to share the story of one of our first features… Meet our Lady Living on Purpose, Bridget here…
“Comparison is the Thief of Joy”… or is it?
Could it be a Source of Joy?
We’ve all heard it time and time again but what if it could be a source of joy?
Stick with me here I know this might seem like a radical idea but it’s something that has helped me IMMENSELY.
Comparison can be crippling. But it’s also hard to avoid.
My strategy up until recently was to try and avoid it. But then I realized that’s just no way to live. So I decided to figure out a way to look at it differently….
Consider this….what if those icky feelings of comparison were actually your inner potential trying to push you into action?
