Take Back Your Marriage!

Everything is fighting for your attention. Bachelor in Paradise is on your TV, you are checking your Instagram, your kids are crying, you have a million things on your to do list and your checkbook just doesn’t quite have enough in it this month. From the second your feet hit the floor, you are constantly busy. You feel like you are barely keeping your head above water, let alone thriving. You feel like there just aren’t enough hours in the day. And your spouse… you are lucky if you get a minute to even say hi to each other.

It is time to take back your marriage.
It is time to take back your life.

Don’t let the weight of this world weigh you down. Its time to prioritize your marriage and take it back.

Take back your marriage from your kids.
Take back your marriage from technology.
Take back your marriage from your finances.
Take back your marriage from your busy schedule.
And, take back your marriage from yourself.

Where do you start you ask? In prayer. On your knees.

Lord, We confess that we are too busy. Everything around us is fighting for our attention and the world is overtaking us. I want to put you first. I want to trust in your word and apply it to my life. I want to know you more and develop a deeper relationship with you. Help me take back my marriage. Help me refocus and reprioritize my life. I want to put you first and my husband second. I want to remove distractions that entangle me and take away my joy. Lord, guide me as I go through this process. Help me strengthen my marriage. Give me grace. Give me strength. I need you Lord. Amen.

Then, follow along for the next 5 weeks as we take back our marriages. Each week I will sharing on one of the topics above and how to reprioritize your life and take back your marriage.

  • Back-to-school shopping for a junior high girl is about so much more than checking supplies off a list. ✏️🎒✨ #pOpshelfPartner

As moms, we know it’s about helping our kids feel prepared, confident, and excited for a new school year.

Brooke and I found so many cute, affordable back-to-school finds at @popshelf — from school supplies and organization must-haves to accessories and fun extras.

I love that we could find everything in one stop, and at prices that let her pick things that fit her personality without blowing the budget. 🤍 Those little details really do make the first day feel a little more exciting.

Visit your local #pOpshelf for affordable, stylish finds that help your kids feel ready for a fresh start! 📚✨

  • Save or splurge? 👀

I finally compared the viral Amazon shorts to my Vuori favorites... and here’s my take. 💕

The Amazon pair is a great budget-friendly option (just make sure to size up!), but when it comes to comfort, Vuori still takes the win for me.

If you’ve been debating between the two, this side-by-side comparison should make the decision a whole lot easier.

Comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links! 🎀 And tell me... are you team save or team splurge? 👇🏼

  • Okay Target... you really got me with these ❤️✨

I found 4 maxi dresses that are cute and easy to throw on. You’ll keep reaching for these all summer. Great for running errands, heading to brunch, vacation, or just trying to look put together without thinking too hard. 😂

Now help me decide... which one’s your favorite? 1, 2, 3, or 4?👇🏼

Comment SHOP and I’ll send you all the links! 💕
