Faith Forward Communications

Every summer seems to come with a new list of who we're supposed to become.

This year, I'm making a different list.

Not because I don't want to grow—but because I'm done chasing expectations that were never mine to carry.

My prayer is that this summer is less about becoming "that girl" and more about becoming the woman God created each of us to be.

So tell me...which one are you leaving behind this summer?

💛 "I'm not comparing."

💛 "I'm not pretending."

💛 "I'm not apologizing for resting."

Or maybe it's something completely different.

I'd love to hear yours. Let's encourage each other as we embrace our .

What are you NOT doing this summer?

I'm not rushing.

I'm not filling every empty space on my calendar.

I'm not confusing busy with faithful.

How about you?

It's been one week since June started.

How are we doing, NOT Girls? ☀️

Be honest.

Did you already overcommit yourself?
Did you answer emails on your day off?
Did you worry about something that never happened?
Did you say yes when you wanted to say no?

Because... same.

One of the things I love most about growth is that it isn't ruined by a rough week.

You don't have to wait until Monday.
You don't have to wait until next month.
You don't have to wait until life settles down.

You can begin again today.

That's why I love the iBloom Summer Reset.

It's not about becoming a new person in 90 days.

It's about creating intentional rhythms, making space for what matters, and taking small steps toward the life you actually want to live.

No pressure.
No perfection.
Just progress.

If your NOT Girl Summer could use a little encouragement, accountability, and community, I'd love for you to join us.

☀️ Live sessions
☀️ A beautiful workbook
☀️ Practical tools
☀️ Community
☀️ Space to dream again

Because maybe this summer isn't about doing more.

Maybe it's about becoming more intentional with what matters most.
