Perspective and Clarity During this Season of Infertility

September 24, 2018

My Personal Feelings on Infertility In a previous post, I shared about how my husband and I have been dealing with infertility for over 2 years. Based off of our health history, there was nothing to suggest there would be difficulty conceiving. Initially, I thought we would definitely conceive in the first 6 months. Honestly, there…

What Does the Bible Say About Infertility – Hannah

September 19, 2018

If you’re struggling with infertility, God’s timing might not make a whole lot of sense. You think, wasn’t your body built to make a baby? Isn’t this part of your role as a woman to give birth? On average, shouldn’t it only take 6 months to get pregnant?! Today, I want to explore what God…

How Does Growth Happen?!

September 5, 2018

Today, I’m talking about my least favorite word. When I say least favorite, I kind of mean the word I hate the most. I call it the G-word… GROWTH. Why do I hate the G-word? Because it’s painful. That’s right, you don’t have growth without pain. That’s why they call it growing pains… Growing as…

August 29, 2018

The main reason why I haven’t lost my mind or become completely distraught about this season of infertility is because I have a clear perspective on the issue. Having the right perspective is everything! It’s the difference between driving in the middle of a thunderstorm and driving with clear blue skies. When you have the right…

Dealing with the Rollercoaster of Infertility

August 25, 2018

Let’s Make a Baby! When I first started thinking about getting my Ph.D., I realized that the timeframe would coincide with my biological clock. I was 29 at the time, but I wouldn’t start the program for another year. Then, it would take me at least four years. By the time I graduated, I would…

Review of Crazy Rich Asians from a Crazy Poor Asian Perspective

August 23, 2018

As many of you know, Crazy Rich Asians recently came out in theater. Part of the reason why this movie is such a big deal is because this is the first major film with a full Asian cast since Joy Luck Club! I was a bit skeptical about the movie at first, but overall, I…

How Blogging and Instagram are Killing Me and Building Me Up at the Same Time – PART 2

August 14, 2018

When I first started blogging and Instagram it was partly because I was pseudo-unemployed. I thought maybe blogging could lead to some income (that hasn’t happened yet!). Also, I sensed God was telling me to take a risk and put myself out there, try something new, even if it doesn’t get results. Last week, I…

A Tea Party for a Recovering Perfectionist – PART 2

July 9, 2018

My Unlikely Perfectionist Response to Everything Going Wrong In my last post, I wrote about being a recovering perfectionist and how everything went wrong at my annual tea party. Why didn’t I respond with a total freakout session, anxiety, or stress? Why didn’t I just remake everything to ensure it was delicious and looked perfect?!…
