This post scares me. I’m going to be more vulnerable on here than I have ever been before. Let’s talk about…prayer. I think a lot of people shy away from it because they feel that they don’t know how to do it. They don’t know what to say, how to start, how to prevent theirContinue reading Prayer of a Broken Pray-er
Loving a Horse
Equine therapy. A concept that, before my anorexia, I didn’t even knew existed. Therapy…with a horse? WTF, mate? But it was part of my program at inpatient, and in all honestly, it really did help me a lot, even though I may not have wanted to admit it at the time. I recently went horsebackContinue reading Loving a Horse
We’re on His Wall
Grey’s Anatomy is a great show. I love it, I really do. And if you haven’t watched from the beginning, I highly HIGHLY suggest it. There’s a formula to the show. In every episode, there’s a patient. They’ve either been maimed by an inanimate object, have a car part or something protruding through their abdomen,Continue reading We’re on His Wall
21 Days
So this past week, I have been up at our lake home in Michigan. It’s a beautiful time together with family, sunshine, food-a-plenty, and of course, beer! It’s been really interesting for me to enter into this intense week of family time after just coming off of an intense period of filming on set. And itContinue reading 21 Days
Being the Girl in the Video
As many of you know, this summer, so far, has been pretty busy for me. I’m just getting back from filming a TV pilot, as well as a music video. (Not a trashy video – a country one!) And I want to thank you guys for all the supportive and encouraging comments across social media.Continue reading Being the Girl in the Video
Seven Words
“Little Girl, I say to you, arise!” On my day off today, I was able to go to church. And the reading was from Mark Chapter 5, and it really spoke to me. In this story, a father frantically searches for Jesus to come heal his 12-year-old daughter, who had fallen ill. By the timeContinue reading Seven Words
WAKE UP CALL
Warning: This may be hard to read. Something happened to me today that made me catch my breath. I was talking with a guy this afternoon, and we were talking about our former high school sweethearts. I pleasantly reminisced about my past, and “edited it” to not include my eating disorder, as I always do.Continue reading WAKE UP CALL
Everyone Has A Story
As you may know, I’m not in NYC right now. I’m filming a project out of the city, and am so grateful to be able to pursue my dreams. (I’m an actor) The show I’m working on has a good sized cast. And if you haven’t worked in the entertainment industry, people get close — fast.Continue reading Everyone Has A Story

A Father’s Day Lesson
#HonestyHour Father’s Day is upon us here in the US. And every year, when it comes, I am full of just a mixed bag of emotions: love, gratitude, admiration, feeling blessed — those are all pretty common, and wonderful things. But since my anorexia, I have to be honest: in my mind and heart, thisContinue reading A Father’s Day Lesson
