WHO AM I

WHO AM I

I teased the question in my first post but I think it is a valuable question to consider and journal around and I invite you to do the same. Don’t be shy and don’t question what comes to you.

Who Am I? 

  1. I am a daughter of God - I listed this first and I it’s my goal to keep my identity focused here. I am so grateful for God’s goodness especially in times I haven’t always lived in alignment with my faith

  2. I am a daughter, granddaughter to a 91-year-old monarch, oldest sister and proud auntie of one soon to be two special little girls 

  3. I am a dog momma to two spunky and lovable pups named Nova and Yuka. Dog hair is an everyday accessory of mine 

  4. I am 37 almost 38 years old and I am feeling the pressure of my biological clock ticking as I have always had a strong desire to be a momma 

  5. I am a midwestern girl with a third culture kid flair after living in the country of Kazakhstan as a missionary kid 

  6. I am a travel lover and love experiencing other cultures. Only one continent left to get to! 

  7. I am a female business owner and operate a real estate team where I have the honor of leading some of the best people 

  8. I am a Realtor with a passion for negotiating the best deal for my clients 

  9. I am passionate about financial literacy and helping people build wealth especially through real estate 

  10. I am a real estate investor and have built my portfolio mostly through house hacking and rehabbing duplexes 

  11. I am a lover of deep conversations (no small talk here) and usually while sipping coffee or a cocktail

  12. I am a direct communicator and rarely struggle with tough conversations. I believe clear is kind

  13. I am a professional networker and find it easy to talk to strangers. I try to compliment one stranger a day

  14. I am gifted with a crazy memory and often remember the most random details about someone 

  15. I am living in the tension of being a personal growth addict and being content in the everyday moments

  16. I am a construction loving lady who has a knack for home renovation and design 

  17. I am an engram 8 and am intense when I am passionate about something 

  18. I am generous and my love language is to give gifts although I would rather not receive them 

  19. I am a lover of supporting small businesses especially women owned ones 

  20. I am a minimalist and guilting of stress cleaning and decluttering on a rather regular basis  

  21. I am healthy and am working to love my body into even better health 

  22. I am a low-tox kinda crunchy gal 

  23. I am brave and not afraid of many things

  24. I am an old soul who enjoys learning and soaking up everything I can 

  25. I am strong and love to lift weights and challenge myself 

  26. I am feminine and embracing my feminine energy 

  27. I am forgiving and have been intentional about forgiving and giving grace 

  28. I am very strategic according to my strength finder test and I would agree 

  29. I am funny, well sometimes and I love making people laugh

This list is a bit awkward to share as it kinda feels like I am hyping myself up - but that’s the point. YOU ARE WORTH THE HYPE. You were created in God’s image and everything beautiful about you should be embraced and highlighted. This is your list to come back and look back on when you lose sight of who you are. 

If you want to take it a step further, look at the list and see if your current habits and commitments are in alignment with who you are. Do some things need to go? Do some things need more attention? 
Here with you on the journey.

Love, B
