ABOUT ME
HI, I’M ALYSSA
I’m so glad you’re here!
Hi, friends. I’m the 30-year-old face behind this site —
A former children’s pastor’s wife, mother to two beautiful little girls, with another sweet baby girl on the way, and work-from-home freelance social media marketer.
With a degree in journalism, I left my office job in 2018, a year after my first was born, and began freelancing full-time for a marketing agency in Nashville, which is where I worked up until 2022. Since leaving there, I have worked at several other agencies, as well as with multiple individual clients from numerous industries.
The same year I pursued freelancing, my husband, who was a Speech Language Pathologist at an elementary, also quit his job and became a full-time Children's Pastor. Fast forward 6 years, and in the fall of 2023, our family took a step back from full-time church ministry and he stepped down from his pastoral duties and is now working in a different field.
With a passion for writing and a newfound passion for all things motherhood, I started this blog shortly after my oldest was born. Here I share snapshots of my day and slivers of my heart.
When we're not working, you can find us traveling at a pickleball court near you, catching up on our favorite TV shows (Survivor and The Great British Bake Off), or busy renovating our 1960s farmhouse, enjoying the country views, and probably gardening or baking with a couple of little girls alongside us.
The days aren't always easy, rarely glamorous, and the nights are usually long. This space is just a way for me to share our real-life experiences, and remember those moments that we never want to forget; the struggles, the victories, and all the lessons learned in between, along with a few of my favorite things, such as recipes, activities/crafts, and more.
