The Grace & Moxie Life blog is all about overall wellness. Health isn’t strictly physical. Health is physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Most importantly, as a Christian, I believe health begins with Jesus being the center of our lives. Not another category in our lives, but the filter that every other category of our lives operates through.
My passions are sharing the good news of Jesus, health/fitness, nature, coaching, writing, and relationships. You can expect to see a little bit of everything here relating to our daily lives and the lives of those around us, with God at the center of it all. The Grace and Moxie Life is a whole health approach to overall wellness.
I’ve been married for 15 years to that cutie in the photo with me and we are the proud dog parents of Sophie, the Jug (Jack Russell/Pug mix). I’m a certified holistic nutritionist personal trainer, life coach, and writer. (check out my nutrition coaching business website here) My mission at The Grace & Moxie Life is to create a community of women who recognize the importance of whole health and prioritize actual overall wellness over diet and exercise trends, obsessing with weight, and who believe everything good flows out of our relationship with God and into every area of our lives.

Remember all you need to get through, to recover, to sustain, to live an abundant life is already in you through the Lord your God! You were built with moxie, you have been given grace!
