Just like you, I wear a bunch of different hats. As a blogger and business owner during the day....

I am also a busy wife, mom, grandma, daughter, friend and sister. I am loud and outgoing. I have never met a stranger. I love to hug everyone. Sugar is my addiction...which my ever changing older...er body wishes would go away.

I have made more mistakes in my life than I can count. I never knew what was right and wrong except when it came to the 10 Commandments...and I definitely know I never killed anyone!

I'm Jane!

I grew up in the bra burning, woman's rights, 'you don't tell me what to do' era.

I got caught up in the 'gimme gimme's' of life and everything seemed to revolve around what I had, did not have, and thought I desperately needed.

I never saved any money. I've made bad investments. I've made bad choices. I have let people down. People have disappointed me. I've been hurt, cried, and tried to move on.

Unbeknownst to me...I was in an identity crisis my whole life. I was never happy with what I looked like or who I was. I was either too skinny or too fat (and, looking back those 'too fat's' would be welcome right now)!

I was always told that I was too loud or too bold or too crazy or too...whatever the flavor of the day was at the time.

I took all of those 'too's' to heart and spent years upon years trying to find what would change and satisfy me. And nothing did.

I started writing Positively Jane in 2019. After all of my own life's  challenges, I discovered Jesus when I was in my early 50's. Jesus totally changed me from the inside out. The old became new. I was a new person.

As a result, through all of the teachings of scripture, I was considered a wise person. Not only did I know a lot about many subjects, I would then filter my thoughts and actions through the truth of scripture.

I realized that there were many women who did not know the truths that I knew and I wanted to share everything I could with others. Because I want every woman on Earth to learn how to choose joy...everyday.

Joy is a choice. Joy is not based on circumstances. At the same time, all of those things in life can wear a person down, right?

How it all began...

3 - Understanding that life is a gift. And one not to be taken lightly.

4 - Writing articles that will resonate with you, as you face fears and anxieties.

2 - Understanding that you ARE loved. worthy, enough.

1 - Navigating those muddy waters of finances. Because finances can definitely steal your joy.

My goal...to encourage women to choose joy...everyday through:

If this is your first time here I would love for you to know me better. Every article I write is for YOU. Every article I write comes from personal experience.

Got some extra time? Start by reading why I Choose Joy Everyday, Are you worthy, who does God say you are.

And then move on to: How to get your finances under control, why a daily gratitude journal is a must and why I make my bed. 

There might just be some hidden nuggets that are just what you need right now. 

And, just in case you are a tad confused, because there is SO much to read and find....

Positively Jane is all about YOU.
