Welcome Friends!

My name is Mary Lenaburg and I am just tickled pink that you are here. Among these pages you will find snapshots of my daily life, lessons learned, insights on love and faith, my passion for clean beauty, books I have written, courses I have created, family recipes and the joy I find in a fabulous statement earring. 

I began blogging in 2007, sharing the story of my sweet daughter Courtney as well as my homemaking and homeschooling adventures. I found myself in a position of mentorship and encouraging other special needs moms and families. What a joy it was to find community. That mentoring continues to this day now as a life coach, working with women walking through fire on the way to achieving their long held lifelong dreams as a life coach. What a privilege it is to accompany these fierce and beautiful souls. 

In 2019 I became an author, writing my award-winning memoir “Be Brave in the Scared” and followed up with a second book “Be Bold in the Broken” in 2021, both published by Ave Maria Press. I now travel the world to speak, lead retreats and parish missions. I talk about God’s redeeming love, and how he has redeemed and restored my life and my marriage, in which I have faced loss, addiction and trauma. I also speak about grief and walking through challenging seasons always with God in sight. Our Lord is faithful and true always.
