Hi, I´m Joey
It’s my hope that this website, which I founded in 2009, will become a regular source of inspiration, encouragement and comfort for you. We’re old friends here, and I’ve got stories to tell (and things to share). So grab a cuppa (or a glass) and stay a while.
While blogging is how I started my out-loud writing career, my debut novel, Yeah, maybe was released in 2014 and became an amazon bestseller. See more novels from me under “books.”
Are you on autopilot?
If you're here from my Youtube video, you can grab your free guide below! If there's one thing I've learned in the last 15 years, it's that literally everything is temporary. Good or bad, nothing is here to stay forever. And while...
Stuff & Things: Surprise Edition
Four years ago almost exactly I was browsing through blogland when I came across an announcement for a new linkup. If you’ve hung around blogland long enough, you know that there tends to be a grouping of specific bloggers that you get mixed in with. I don’t know how exactly it happens, but we...
And suddenly we’re here…
Things are happening around here. Big things. And oddly enough, we just gently tapped them to see what would happen and suddenly things are in motion. Funny how that happens. I confessed to you in my millennial money matters post that we've spent a sickening amount on rent over the last 6.5 years....
Life Lately
Happy Thursday, pretty friends! I'll admit, I totally forgot to write a blog post for this morning until I saw Kristin's post go up. It's been that kind of week. Jonathan and I have started house hunting. I know. I know. We moved into this sweet little apartment almost two years ago desperate for...
Pack Like a Pro: Moving Made Easy
So my friend called me last week in a bit of a panic. Without really meaning to, she and her husband sold their house and bought a new one. I'd tell you the whole story about how someone randomly showed up on their doorstep putting in an offer on their house that wasn't for sale, but that's not...

Mama, indie author, wife, believer and friend.

YOU SHOULD READ MY BOOKS
For the deep feeler, the over-thinker & the one who’s trying to figure out where they fit.
I write for the ones who feel like they’re too much and not enough all at the same time. For the ones navigating big questions about identity, self-worth, relationships, and those in-between life moments no one really prepares you for.
My stories offer a mix of comfort and catharsis—like a late-night journal entry or a favorite nostalgic playlist. If you love Taylor Swift lyrics, soft heartbreak, and hopeful endings, you just might find a piece of yourself in these pages.
