At Lemon Balm Coaching, I guide soul-tired women over 40 out of the breakdown of exhaustion, anxiety, and hopelessness and into a life of peace, vibrant flow, and renewed joy.

Yep! That's me! Jumping out of a perfectly good airplane! ๐Ÿ˜‚

I did this for my 50th birthday.

My dad rolled out of the plane right after me - because it was on his bucket list too - and I won't lie to you: it was exhilarating, a little terrifying, and one of the coolest things I've ever done.

But something hit me between the jump and the landing (no, it wasn't a bird):
The scariest part wasn't the fall.
It was the moment before.
Sitting at the edge.
Looking down.
Knowing that the only way to experience what was on the other side was to let go of the door frame and trust the process.

Release isn't about losing something. It's about giving yourself room for something more... something better... something exhilarating.

Space for peace.
Space for clarity to do its deepest work.
Space for God to fill what exhaustion has emptied out.

You can stand at the edge of letting go - white-knuckling the familiar, the safe, the known - or you can jump and discover that He was holding you the whole time.

In the Message version, Isaiah 43:18-19 says: "Forget about whatโ€™s happened; donโ€™t keep going over old history.
Be alert, be present. Iโ€™m about to do something brand-new."

Not a repaired version of the old thing.
Not a patched-up, survival-mode version of yourself.
Something new.

Ask yourself:

What am I carrying into tomorrow that doesn't belong there?
What has God been asking me to trust Him with - that I keep taking back (this is a BIG ONE)?
What would 'new' actually look like for me right now?

He's got you.
And friend, if He can hold me at 14,000 feet, He can hold you through this too.

What's your metaphorical door frame right now - the thing you're gripping right before the jump? Tell me below. ๐Ÿ‘‡

There is something beautiful that happens when you finally let go.

When you put down the weight, and God gives you something you couldn't have received while your hands were full.

Peace that passes understanding.
Joy that isn't dependent on circumstances.
A lightness that feels foreign at first because you've been carrying so much for so long.

I've watched this happen in the women I work with again and again.

Women who released the need to control every outcome - and found rest she hadn't felt in years.
Women who released the identity of 'the strong one' - and found a community that finally held her.
Women who finally released the story that it was too late - and found purpose waiting right where she left herself.

Letting go is not an ending. It's an opening.

What do you believe God might be waiting to give you on the other side of what you've been holding?

I see you.

The one who's been holding it all together for everyone else.
The one who shows up even when she's running on empty.
The one who has been Womder Woman for so long she doesn't even know what 'not strong' looks like anymore.

I really want you to hear this:

The strength you've been performing is costing you more than you know.

Real strength isn't white-knuckling through everything alone.

Real strength is knowing when to let go and who to hand it to.

The One who designed you - who knit you together, who knew you before you were born, who has been faithfully present through every hard season (even if you've felt alone) - He is asking you to let Him carry this.

Not because you're weak. Because you're His.

Put it down.
He's got it.
And He's got you.

04/09/2026

Did you catch that?

ALL.

Not the manageable anxiety.
Not the socially acceptable worry.
Not the things you've already tried to figure out on your own.

ALL of it.

The fear that you've already missed your window.
The grief you haven't let yourself fully feel.
The anger you've been calling 'fine.'
The loneliness that hides behind being busy.

God is not overwhelmed by the weight of what you've been carrying...He can totally handle all of it!

He's been waiting for you to hand it over.

Can I geek out with you for a second? ๐ŸŒฟ

As a Registered Aromatherapist, I think about the connection between scent and emotional release a lot.

Here's why:

Your olfactory system - your sense of smell - has a direct pathway to the limbic system, which is the part of the brain that stores emotion and memory.

That's why a certain smell can instantly take you back to a moment, a feeling, or a person.

And that's also why intentional use of essential oils can support your nervous system in releasing what it's been holding.

A few of my favorites for emotional release work:

๐ŸŒฟ Frankincense - is grounding. It connects you to the present and supports deep breathing
๐ŸŒฟ Bergamot - lifts heaviness, soothes anxiety, and is emotionally clarifying
๐ŸŒฟ Lemon Balm - (of course) - calming to the nervous system, gentle and restorative
๐ŸŒฟ Roman Chamomile - is deeply soothing, and helps release tension stored in the body

You are a spirit inhabiting a fleshly body; they are not separate. Healing touches both.

What's your favorite grounding scent? Tell me below. ๐Ÿ‘‡

Sometimes we don't even realize what we've picked up along the way.

Sometimes we don't even realize what we've picked up along the way.

I think so many people don't get it!

Release (AKA letting go) does not mean:
- Pretending it didn't hurt
- Letting people off the hook
- Stuffing down what you feel to seem more spiritual
- Giving up on yourself

Release means:
- Acknowledging what happened without letting it define your future
- Choosing not to let yesterday's wounds run today's decisions
- Opening your hands to God so He can fill them with something better than what you've been gripping

This is mature, courageous, hard work.

It's one of the most powerful things a woman can do.

Which misconception about Release have you been believing?

Sunday again.

That sacred threshold between what was and what's coming.

I want to set the tone for you tonight.

Release isn't about losing something. It's about making space.

Let's say it a little louder for those in the back!

RELEASE IS ABOUT MAKING SPACE!!!

Space for peace.
Space for clarity to do its deepest work.
Space for God to fill what exhaustion emptied out.

Isaiah 43:18-19 says: *Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing.*

A new thing.

Not a repaired version of the old thing. Not a patched-up, white-knuckled version of survival.

Something new.

Tonight, ask yourself three questions:
1. What from this past week am I carrying into next week that doesn't belong there?
2. What has God been asking me to trust Him with that I keep taking back?
3. What would 'new' look like for me right now?

Write it down. Hand it over. Rest in it.

04/04/2026

Not forever. Just for today.

What if you put down the worry about next week?
What if you stopped rehearsing the conversation you haven't had yet?
What if you let the to-do list wait and let your nervous system rest?

What would that feel like in your body?

For many of the women I work with, the answer to that question brings up immediate resistance:

I can't. Too much depends on me. If I stop, it all falls apart.

How's that working for you?

Release is all about trust. It's saying: God, I believe You are bigger than my to-do list.

Try it today. Even for an hour. Put it down and see what happens.

Tell me what comes up for you when you think about releasing control. ๐Ÿ’š

Can I be a little direct and spicy with you today?

Some of you have been living so long inside your hardest season that you've started to believe it's your identity.

The anxious one.
The burned-out one.
The one who can't seem to get it together.
The one who gave and gave until there was nothing left.

THAT IS NOT WHO YOU ARE!!!!

That is what happened... There is a difference.

And the work of Release isn't just letting go of circumstances. It's letting go of the story you've been telling yourself about who you are because of those circumstances.

You were designed for more than survival.

You were designed for peace, purpose, and the kind of vibrant, full life that feels like it belongs to someone else right now.

It belongs to you.

What's one label you're ready to release today? ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Sit with this verse for a minute.

Lay aside every weight.

Not just the big obvious stuff.

The weight.

The weight of other people's opinions.
The weight of a perfectionism that was never sustainable.
The weight of being everything to everyone while slowly disappearing.
The weight of the version of yourself you've outgrown but are still trying to maintain because it's familiar.

That last one? That's the one that gets women the most.

What weight have you made a normal part of your experience?
What are you carrying that you've gotten so used to, you don't even notice it anymore - until it flattens you?

Name it. Write it down. And then ask God what He wants to do with it.

He's not asking you to figure out how to lay it down. Just be willing.

That's where release begins. ๐Ÿ’š

04/01/2026

This is something many people don't realize about the stuff they carry:

That stuff doesn't just live in your mind; They live in your body.

The grief you never processed.
The anger you swallowed to keep the peace.
The anxiety that hums underneath everything.
The exhaustion that sleep doesn't fix.

THAT. IS. STUCK. ENERGY.

I work with women at this exact intersection - where the emotional, spiritual, and physical all meet.

And what I know for certain is this:

When you address the body alongside the spirit and mind, release becomes possible in a way it never was through willpower alone.

Your body was designed to release. It knows how. It just needs safety, support, and a little help finding the way.

If you've been doing all the 'right things' but still feel stuck - this might be why.

Save this post and let me know: where do you feel stuck emotions most in your body? ๐Ÿ‘‡

Change Your Habits and Change Your Life!

Aromatherapy opened up a door to my true passion: COACHING

I have been a coach my entire life. I have helped numerous people discover their passion, move in healthy directions, and live better lives without even realizing that was what I was doing.

Now, I am officially a coach! I am work with clients to help them overcome the challenges of life and have healthy lives.

My journey has never followed a direct route and I have had many different careers throughout my 1/2 century on this planet. I am an Air Force Security Forces Veteran, a stay-at-home mom of four veteran, a homeschooling veteran, and have had many hobbies and experiences that have all led me to this point in my life. I am very much like Shrek! Thereโ€™s a lot more to me than most people think. Iโ€™m like an onion: โ€œLAYERS! Onions have layers. OGRES have layers. Onions have layers... you get it. We both have layers.โ€
