What Challenge

—

Wednesday’s word/phrase is what challenge.

Challenge as a noun is “a call to take part in a contrast or competition…”

Sometimes I think my middle name should have been “challenge”and I’m sure my family and friends that read my blog would agree that for  unless there is a challenge to it I just don’t seem to want it. This is something that I’m working to not thrive on as much but to embrace the “simple”.

So when I embarked on the challenge of motherhood I in my normal fashion went head over heals loving it. I am so grateful for this challenge. Not only did I have a girl and a boy but they have such big bold personalities night and day from each other. One has such a gentle sweet soul as life’s hall monitor with checks and balances even putting themselves on time out. The other is full of charisma and push the envelope kind of soul walking still sitting but holding the time out chair.

Yes the challenge of motherhood with each one of my special children that are now young adults making me so very proud of them. This challenge is not over but changed a bit but I am so grateful for!

● About Me

Hi, I’m Gwyn.

I’m a yoga teacher, cancer survivor, and someone who has learned that healing is rarely a straight path. Through the years, I’ve faced, unexpected health challenges and now an autoimmune disease and seasons that tested my faith in ways I never imagined. Yet through it all, God has faithfully met me with strength, hope, and grace.

I created this blog in 2016 to encourage anyone who feels like healing isn’t possible. Today, it has grown into a place where I share honest conversations about living well with chronic illness, embracing midlife, practicing gentle movement, nourishing our bodies, and finding joy even when life doesn’t go according to plan.

You’ll find encouragement, healthy recipes worth making, simple wellness tips, yoga, reflections on faith, and stories from my own journey. My hope is that when you leave this space, you feel a little less alone and a little more hopeful.

Whether you’re navigating health challenges, searching for balance, or simply looking for encouragement in this season of life, I’m so glad you’re here.

Welcome. I hope you’ll stay awhile.
