I didnโt share everything when I left for Norway.
You saw the pictures. The views. The quiet moments tucked between long days.
But I didnโt tell you why I was really thereโฆ because honestly, I was still trying to process it myself.
Grief has a way of doing that.
It doesnโt just sit in your heartโฆ it settles into your body.
And if Iโm being really honest with youโฆ These past months have taken a toll on me in ways I didnโt fully understand at first.
The exhaustion that sleep couldnโt fix. The inflammation. The brain fog. The feeling of just not quite being myself.
I kept showing up. Because thatโs what we do, right?
We keep going for our kids. For our people. For the life in front of us.
But deep down, I knewโฆ
something had to change.
A Door I Didnโt Expect
What I didnโt know is that God was already opening a door.
Many of you have known for years that I was part of It Works. That season taught me so much. It stretched me, grew me, and connected me to so many of you.
But what I didnโt see comingโฆ was how that chapter would evolve.
That company has now merged into something entirely new.
A European-based health and wellness company called Zinzinoโฆ and I was invited to Norway to step into it before it even fully launches here in the United States.
And let me just say thisโฆ
This isnโt just another โthing.โ
This feels different.
What Zinzino Is (And Why It Matters to Me)
Zinzino was founded by Norwegian entrepreneurs Hilde and รrjan Sรฆle, and what drew me in immediately is their focus on something we donโt talk about enough:
Healing from the inside out.
Not quick fixes.
Not surface-level solutions.
Not covering things up.
But actually understanding whatโs going on inside your bodyโฆ and giving it what it needs to function the way God designed it to.
Itโs test-based, personalized nutrition.
Which means youโre not guessing anymoreโฆ youโre actually learning what your body needs.
And for me?
After everything my body has walked through with griefโฆ
this hit differently.
Because I donโt want to just โget byโ anymore.
I want to feel strong again.
Clear again.
Alive again.
When Grief Becomes Physical
No one really prepares you for this part.
We talk about the heartbreak.
The memories.
The missing.
But we donโt always talk about how grief can settle into your physical body.
How it can affect your hormones.
Your energy.
Your immune system.
Your ability to even think clearly some days.
And I realizedโฆ Iโve been trying to carry all of this on my own.
Pushing through.
Ignoring what my body has been trying to tell me.
But maybeโฆ just maybeโฆ
God wasnโt calling me to push harder.
Maybe He was calling me to heal.
Why Norway Changed Something in Me
Being in Norway wasnโt just about a company.
It was about perspective.
It slowed me down.
It gave me space to breathe again.
And for the first time in a long timeโฆ I felt hopeful about whatโs ahead.
Not because everything is fixed.
But because I finally feel like Iโm moving in the right direction.
And Thenโฆ My Kids Said Yes
And this might be the part that means the most to me.
Ella and Kale are stepping into this alongside me.
And if youโre a momโฆ you understand why that hits so deep.
Because this isnโt just about business.
This is about legacy.
This is about healing as a family.
This is about building something together in a season that could have easily torn us apart.
Watching them say yesโฆ
watching them find their own purpose in thisโฆ
has been one of the biggest blessings in the middle of so much pain.
Their โWhyโ Matters Too
One of the things I love most about this season is that itโs not just my story being writtenโฆ itโs ours.
And each of them has their own reason for stepping into this.
Ellaโs heart in this is so special to me.
Sheโs walking through her own season of becomingโฆ of figuring out who she is, what she stands for, and how she wants to show up in the world. And what drew her in wasnโt just the opportunityโฆ it was the deeper purpose behind it. The idea of helping women feel confident, supported, and strong again from the inside out. Watching her step into something that aligns with her voice, her faith, and her passion for encouraging othersโฆ itโs been really powerful to witness.
Iโve shared more of her heart and her โwhyโ in a separate space because it deserves its own moment. Not just as my daughterโฆ but as who she is becoming.

His โyesโ looks different, but itโs just as meaningful.
Heโs always been steady. Thoughtful. The kind of person who doesnโt jump into things quicklyโฆ but when he does, you know it matters.
For him, this wasnโt about hype. It was about understanding. About learning how to take care of his body, how to build something for his future, and how to be part of something that actually makes a difference.
Thereโs something really special about watching your kids choose growth. Choose responsibility. Choose something bigger than themselves.
And he's shared more about his perspective tooโฆ because his story deserves to be told in his own way.
And Meโฆ Still Becoming Too
And then thereโs me.
Still learning.
Still healing.
Still figuring out what this next chapter looks like.
But for the first time in a long timeโฆ
I feel like Iโm not just surviving it.
Iโm stepping into it.
If youโve been here for a while, you know I donโt share things lightly.
And I donโt step into things unless I truly believe in them.
This isnโt about going backwards.
This is about stepping forwardโฆ in a way that feels aligned, intentional, and rooted in something deeper.
This Is Just The Beginning
This is Part 1.
Because thereโs so much more to shareโฆ not just about the company, but about what God is doing in me through it.
I didnโt go to Norway just for a trip.
I went because something in me needed to change.
And I truly believeโฆ
this is the beginning of healing I didnโt even know I needed.
Iโm so glad youโre here with me. ๐ค
& I would love for you to join me on the journey of inspiring change in life!

โฆand thatโs really why I said yes to Zinzino.
Not because everything is perfect or easy, but because Iโve lived what it feels like to be exhausted, overwhelmed, and searching for answers. I aligned with Zinzino because itโs rooted in helping people take back control of their health in a simple, sustainable wayโwithout the confusion and guesswork.
I donโt share anything I donโt believe in, and this felt different. It felt like something that could truly help, not just me, but other busy moms walking through hard seasons, too. And if I can be a part of helping someone feel better, have more energy, and take one step toward healingโฆ then thatโs exactly why Iโm here. ๐ค
