hey you!
Thanks for stopping by. I invest in women who want to grow their relationship with God & leadership of self and others. Whether you landed here for a word of encouragement, a dose of reality or a resource I’ve created, I’m so glad you’re here!
I'm Manda.
I answer to Amanda, Manda, or any random and wacky nickname my husband comes up with. Speaking of my husband. His name is Eric, but I call him E. We got married the summer of 2015 and I love him more than doughnuts, pizza, Carmel Macchiatos’s, This Is Us, yoga pants and well, you get the point.

Want a Monthly Letter of Encouragement?
In 2015, I had no intention of launching a movement. I simply combined three of my favorite things – writing, snail mail, and encouragement – and #MonthlyLettersOfEncouragement was born!

The Space Devotional
Are you exhausted? Constantly in a rush? Overwhelmed on a daily basis? I wrote this 30-day devotional for YOU. With real-life stories and tangible action-steps, I want to help you create space for your life and grow closer to God.
My Story.
My desire is to be transparent because #ImpressingIsExhausting and I don’t have a fake bone in my body. I’ll continue sharing my beautiful mess and get to know yours if you participate in the conversation! Most of all, I hope you leave this space encouraged. You are never alone & always welcome here.
