Encouraging and equipping women over 60 to live their best life!
My pastor recently taught through 1 John. When addressing 1 John 3:17, he challenged us to ask: “Has my material wealth blessed anyone else?” I believe the verse can be extended beyond material wealth to include our skills, talents, and abilities. As we move into a new year, I challenge you to watch for those who have a need you can fill. Use your resources to bless someone else. It is something you can do.
Intimacy doesn’t have to fade with time. It can grow deeper, richer, and more fulfilling when you allow God to be the author of your love story again.
When you look at others’ social media posts or Christmas cards, realize that they are merely their highlight reel—they are counting their blessings. Their day-to-day reality may be very different.

Carving out time for stillness and quiet reflection requires intentionality. Myriad must-do’s flood our minds, so making room for contemplation of blessings, prayer, praise, and reflection comes only with a willingness to make it a priority.
Adding fun back into your life doesn’t start someday—it starts now.
Don’t wait. When inspiration nudges you, act on it. Time is ticking, and if you woke up this morning, God still has plans for you—good ones, prepared in advance for you to do. Having fun is often the byproduct of living fully, intentionally, and for His glory.
I can’t wait to share the exciting news. After 5+ years I am rebranding my podcast. I will no longer be calling my podcast “Mornings with Monette.” I have loved each and every week, talking to you about different topics, with my main focus on personal development and self-improvement from a biblical perspective. I feel my…
As I was walking into the grocery store a few days ago, my heart warmed when I saw a Salvation Army red kettle and bell ringer out front ringing away. I scrambled to quickly dig into my purse to find a couple of dollars to drop in the bucket. It felt good. The Salvation Army’s…
