My Purpose and My Why

I'm in a new place in life. I am not sure how to describe it, but here I am; and life isn't sitting and waiting on me.

My girls are all in school now. As much as I would love for them to still be little, it's just not reality. I am embracing where they are and enjoying every moment I have with them. I heard my mom more than once talk about how our children are only loaned to us by God for a short time. I totally get it!!! We get one chance, so we have to make the most of it NOW!

Then there are my parents. You probably know because you know me or by my previous posts that I have recently lost my mom. You may not know that I lost my dad three and a half years ago. Can I just say right here that I am SO TIRED of grieving?! Loss and grief just puts you in a different place. It changes you!! Literally changes you!!

So, as I enter a new phase of life with my girls in school and both parents gone, I have been digging deep and searching to have a clear purpose. I have a lot of opportunities to do good. Don't get me wrong. I am not saying I am bored!! I am NOT bored. I just want to do more. I have a desire to be more and do more than just average. I want my life to be great!!! I also want to help others see their potential for a great life. Who wants an average life??

It has been my passion for a long time to help other people with IBDs, specifically UC and all that it involves. I have a deep desire to help people feel better. To me, it's not about running a big business. I don't want to just "sell" the latest popular healthcare products to everyone I know!! That's not me--at all!! To me, it is so much more than that, and here's why. I know first hand what it feels like to lose your health. I even know what it is like to be in such a poor state of health that you want to die. Yep, you read that right. I told Toby many times, "I just want to die". I didn't want to take my own life. I was just okay with dying, because I was so sick and in so much pain.

Many things helped me get better, and to God I give all the glory. One thing that has been HUGE is Sunrider. It changed my life!! It gave me hope from the very beginning!! It was the food my body needed to feel alive and normal again. Did it heal me? No. It's not designed to heal. It's designed to feed your body so it can do what God made it to do.

Now, I have this desire to help others feel this same way!! I just want to help!!! I would love to give that same hope I had to someone else.

If you would like help with your health struggles please send me a message and let me know how I could help you!! Living with an illness can be lonely. I know!! I've been there. I would love to help!!
