Why I Wrote My Love Story

When I wrote our love story, I was a young mother and small business owner who was stressed and forming a habit of negative thoughts. I didn't like where my head was and I knew I needed to work at making a change. Gratitude Journals were trendy, so I started by creating a list of all the reasons I loved my husband. Writing the list helped me appreciate him and that was great; but, I was hoping for something more.

It was almost February. Valentine’s Day was on its way; so, I decided to dig deeper and create a heartfelt gift for my husband. That’s when I began writing the story of how we met.

As I wrote a little more of our story each day I noticed a change in the way I felt. The process of going through memorabilia, pondering events, and writing the memories of how we met, opened my heart in a way that I didn't expect. I felt a deeper love for my husband emerge. It was like the spark of new love - and so much better.

In the years since, we've come back to our love story over and over again. Each time we reminisce and have wonderful conversations about those early days and I find myself feeling amazed with the man I married. It's kind of like magic.

I decided If I could possibly share this process and the results, I had to. So, here I am, with the sincerest hope you will feel inspired to create your own love story. I've even put together bite sized steps to help you through the journey. Sign up for the email series (it's free) - Your future self will thank you.
