My Top List of Recommendations & Resources!

Hey there, Sis!

Can you believe it? A brand-new year is right around the corner. Whether 2024 treated you like a queen or put you through the ringer, I want you to know this: 2025 is your year to shine. And I’m here to help you step into it feeling rooted, resilient, and ready for whatever life throws your way.

Now, I’m not about fluff or empty promises—I’m talking about real, actionable tips and resources to help you thrive as a mom, a healthcare hero, and the resilient woman of faith that you are. Let’s make this year about YOU, sis—healing, growing, and living in your purpose.

So grab your coffee (I know how y’all love it light and sweet!), get comfy, and let’s dive into my top recommendations to make 2025 your best year yet.

1. Prioritize Self-Care Like Never Before

Listen, we can’t pour from an empty cup, and I know you’ve been pouring into everybody else—your kids, your patients, even that coworker who never returns the favor. It’s time to flip the script and make self-care your top priority.

• Resource Recommendation:
  Invest in a guided journal (like the ones I create!) to help you carve out time for reflection and gratitude. Journaling doesn’t have to be complicated—just a few minutes a day to pour your heart out can work wonders. Click here to see one of my creations !
• Freebie Alert!
  I’ve created a Self-Care Love Note Template just for you. Think of it as a little reminder from your future self to take care of YOU. Scroll to the bottom of this post to grab your free copy!

2. Deepen Your Faith and Connection with God

Nothing gets us through the highs and lows like leaning on God. This year, let’s make time to not just survive but truly thrive in our walk with God.

• Resource Recommendation:
  Download a Bible app like YouVersion or Dwell to get daily scriptures on the go. Or grab a devotional book that speaks to your heart. I’ve been loving “Jesus First – For Women” lately—it’s short, sweet, and always on point.
• Quick Tip:
  Keep a sticky note on your work station on wheels, clipboard or even your car , with a verse that reminds you of your strength. My go-to? Isaiah 41:10 (KJV) : “Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.”

3. Create Routines That Work for YOU

Sis, I know your life is full—between motherhood, work, and trying to sneak in a moment for yourself, it can feel like a juggling act. But having a routine can make all the difference.

• Resource Recommendation:
  Use time-blocking or daily planners to organize your day. I recommend tools like Google Calendar for digital organization or a good old-fashioned planner (because sometimes, writing it down just hits different).
• Quick Tip:
  Block out at least 10 minutes every morning to set your intentions for the day—whether it’s a prayer, journaling, or just sitting in stillness with your coffee.

4. Build a Support System That Lifts You Up

You don’t have to do this alone, sis. Whether it’s friends, family, or faith-based communities, surround yourself with people who uplift and encourage you.

• Resource Recommendation:
  Join a local women’s group at your church or find online communities of like-minded women. Facebook groups and Instagram are great places to start.
• Quick Tip:
  Don’t be afraid to set boundaries. Sometimes, the best way to protect your peace is by saying “NO” to things and people that drain you.

5. Treat Your Body Like the Temple It Is

I’m not saying you have to go vegan or run a marathon (unless that’s your thing!), but 2025 is the year to truly honor your body.

• Resource Recommendation:
  Start small: drink more water, take a walk during your break, or try a beginner’s Zumba class. Apps like MyFitnessPal can help you stay on track with your health goals.
• Quick Tip:
  Pack snacks for work that fuel you (almonds, fruit, or even a little dark chocolate for those sweet cravings). And if you’re on your feet all day, make sure you’ve got comfy shoes—your feet deserve love too!
