My 3 day hospital stay + 3 things you can do to prioritize rest

Hey there Reader, Happy Monday! Consider this month's JOYrney™ Mail a self-love letter and a reminder not to take your health for granted. A couple of weeks ago, I was experiencing extreme discomfort and bloating in my midsection. I initially ignored it for a few days, thinking I'd just eaten something my body disagreed with. Three days later, I was still in pain, but by then, it had become so uncomfortable that I couldn't even sleep. So at 11 PM on July 19th, I decided to go to the ER. Five...

Erica Lasan | Christian Coaching for Women

This is about to be me 👆🏾 JK. Not really. I don’t do clubs (was never really my thing). But if it’s giving Acts 2:42 energy — you know, a sanctified gathering of the saints with fellowship, good food, and good music — I might just pull up! 😂 lol Hey Reader heyyyyy, and Happy FriYAYYYYYY! We’re T-minus 4 days from my birthday — July 3rd! 🎂 So here’s the BIG news: After months of prayer, journaling, and time offline with the Lord… I’m launching something really special on my birthday: 🌿 RESTED...

Erica Lasan Rested & Rooted™ | Christian Women’s Group Coaching

... Well not really. I don’t do clubs (never really my thing 😂). lol But if it’s giving Acts 2:42 energy — you know, a sanctified gathering of the saints with fellowship, good food, and good music — I might just pull up! lol Hey Reader heyyyyy, and Happy FriYAYYYYYY! We’re T-minus 6 days from my birthday — July 3rd! 🎂 So here’s the BIG news: After months of prayer, journaling, and time offline with the Lord… I’m launching something really special on my birthday: 🌿 RESTED & ROOTED™🌿: A JOYrney...

#JOYGem For The Week:“Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes… including you.” — Anne Lamott Hey hey Reader, and Happy FriYAYYYYYY! What's on my mind this week: Rest isn’t laziness. It’s leadership. Most women I speak with, coach, and meet are running on fumes — managing a household, building a career, holding it all together —and wondering why they feel burned out. But here’s the thing: Sometimes, doing less is how God prepares you for more. This week’s episode...

New Year goals & Vision BINGO

Hey hey, Reader! Can you believe we’re already halfway through the year?! 😮💨 We’re halfway through 2025 — and if your goals feel a little off or outdated… you’re not alone. If you’ve been feeling off-track, stuck, or unsure about your goals, consider this your mid-year permission slip to pause, reset… and pivot with JOY. Last week, I revisited my VISION B.I.N.G.O. board and had a moment of clarity: Some things I set out to do this year still deeply resonate. Others? Not so much. Yes, there’s...

Happy Hump Day, Reader! How is your month going? And while we’re at it… how’s your mental? We’re still in May — which means it’s Mental Health Awareness Month, and with the attention of Mother’s Day already far in our rear-view, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about what it actually means to support women —especially those navigating motherhood and caregiving. 🥹 She selected this sign all on her own. 🥰 What’s on my mind today: The other day, I saw a TikTok from a well-known influencer in...

At the Friends School of Baltimore Campus w/ the fam - May 2025 Happy FriYAYYYYY, Reader! At The Friends School of Baltimore Campus w/ the fam - May 2025 May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Last week the family and I headed down to Baltimore for my 20th high school reunion. Crazy – I know! 🙈 With this, and Mother’s Day just around the corner, I’ve been reflecting a lot on the journey I've been on the past 20 years of becoming a woman, and what emotional wellness looks like — especially for...

Happy FriYAYYYYY! 💎This Week’s #JOYGem 💎 You’re not forgotten. You’re being preparing for something greater than you imagined! Hey Reader, Have you ever felt like you’re doing everything right… but God still hasn’t moved? Same. I know what it’s like to pray, prepare, stay faithful—and still feel like you’re sitting in the waiting room, wondering if your name will ever be called. But in this week’s Bible study, I was reminded of something powerful: Just because God isn’t moving doesn’t mean He...

Your past doesn’t disqualify you — it prepares you Hey Reader, Have you ever felt like parts of your story were too messy to be meaningful? Same here. 🙋🏾♀️ But a couple weeks ago, I was reminded (yet again) that God doesn’t waste anything—especially not the messy parts. You don’t need to be “fully ready” to walk in your purpose. In fact… your transformation is often the very thing that makes you ready. This week on the JOYrney To Purpose® Podcast, we’re looking at Acts 9— where Saul’s radical...

Hey Reader, I had a moment last year that I haven’t been able to shake. It reminded me why this JOYrney™ work matters — and how deeply we all need JOY right now. But before I share that story,. What does JOY look like for you right now? (At work, at home… even just in your day-to-day?) Think about that for a second. Whether you're a healthcare provider, a corporate leader, a mother/caregiver, or simply someone navigating big life transitions — burnout is real. And most of the time, we try to...

Erica Lasan -  Maternal Care Nurse Burnout and Retention Solutions

Hey Reader, Happy FriYAYYYYY! 🎉 Nine months ago, I was in one of the most vulnerable moments of my life — giving birth to my third child. Today I’d like you to introduce you to a new friend – and someone who brought me so much JOY and comfort during (what could have been) one of the most stressful days of my life – my Labor & Delivery Nurse, Melissa. I hope today's JOYrney Mail™ serves as a reminder of how simply caring as you LIVE OUT YOUR PURPOSE can transform the lives and experiences of...
