“I Wish for Barbies”

Hey Girlfriends,

When we’re little, we dream big—some want to be fashion designers, others dream of shaking pom-poms as professional cheerleaders. Me? I just wanted Barbies. What does that mean exactly? Honestly, I’m not sure. Maybe, deep down, I was longing for love, family, and a fairytale of my own.

I’d spend hours creating dramatic storylines—Ken and Barbie would fight, break up, and somehow always find their way back to each other. No matter what, they chose each other. And that’s what I wanted: a love that sticks, a love that builds, a love that creates. A love that is full of passion.

But life is interesting, always throwing you a curve ball when you don’t expect it.  You don’t always get the thing you dream of—you get something even better. At 21, I had a radical encounter with God, and it changed everything. Instead of the love story I expected, I found myself swept up in a romance far greater. Jesus became my knight in shining armor, the One who saved me, fought for me, and has never left my side—through every high and every low.

And oh, has He taken me on a wild, unexpected ride. Growing up, I wasn’t the girl with a five-year plan or a dream job. Truthfully? I still don’t have it all figured out. But here I am, moving forward, guided by the Holy Spirit, building something that I could have never imagined.

My heart beats for a sisterhood—a real, raw, powerful community of women who lift each other up, push each other forward, and remind each other that we are never alone. What started as a whisper in my heart has grown into something alive and breathing, something I know God is leading.

My greatest desire? That He uses me—us—in a mighty way. That every woman who walks into this space knows without a doubt that she is chosen, seen, and loved by the One who matters most.

Let’s do this together, babe.

XOXO,
