What we put into the virtual world has the ability to follow us. Are we conscious of the wars we wage with our words?

The famous quote, “Hindsight is 2020” has never been more true as we reflect upon the year that was. For some it was a year of productive wins. For others... a year of epic failures. Join Melissa as she talks about how one off-handed comment from her kid changed her perspective on life’s messy moments, how they shape us, and how the epiphany moments God gives us in our everyday journey of faith change us from the inside out. 

Do you often feel like a hot mess mama? Trying to be all things to everyone in your life can be overwhelming. But the truth is that we don’t need the world to validate our struggles because we know our struggles are real. Join Melissa as she talks about her own personal struggle being a hot mess, her journey to seek clarity in her journey of faith, and how she‘s changing the narrative of her story learning to focus on and celebrate the wins in her life and in the lives of others.
