Hey!

I’m Hanna, and I’m thrilled you’re here. I’m a facts girl. I like to know what I’m getting into right off the bat, so let’s jump in shall we?

 i love jesus

I need you to know this first. If this were a blind date, and you needed to get the DL about me, here is where I would start. HE is the reason I have breath in my lungs, to share my story. He is the reason I have hope to live each day, and He is the living, breathing proof that grace and unconditional love can conquer even our deepest darkest secrets. I have God sized dreams because He created them within me, and I won’t stop until the last breath has exited my body.

I believe in good coffee, online shopping and hearing someone’s story.

I believe as humans, we have three basic needs. A need for security, a need for significance and a need for strength. A desire to be loved, for purpose and hope. To be heard for who we are, and to be understood. I sat in the bleachers for such a long time, and I noticed the need for more true conversations. The deep stuff that keeps us up at night, and the hard stuff that no one talks about but everyone agonizes over. Like waxing your upper lip, pap smear results and failed relationships.

And if we could all get real with each other for one hot minute and recognize the similarities we have with every other woman-how much more grace could we have for ourselves and others?

This is what I desire. This is where I’m at.


When I’m 80 years old...”

For some reason, I kinda live by this mantra.

It pushes me. It helps me see past my present. It fires me up to get living.

When I’m 80 years old I want to look back and be proud of what I’ve done. Who I’ve become, challenges I’ve faced and the way I’ve handled failure. When I’m 80 years old, I don’t want to look back and have any doubts. I never want to wonder “what if?”

Three years ago I decided I was sick of just surviving. I wanted to thrive!

So that’s where rubber meets the road. I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired, and from watching others around me struggle with the same. It’s time that we shake off the doubts and lies, and begin to embrace a beautifully big, crazy worthwhile life. And make no apologies for it.

Thank you for being here.

Whether you know it yet or not, you were made for this beauty.

xoxo,

Hanna
