Hi, I’m Meredith
I’m an author, nurse, wife & mama. I was lucky enough to be born in my favorite city, Nashville Tennessee & even luckier to marry my high school sweet heart. You’ll find us loving on our sweet boys, at the lake with our pup Lady or watching the sun set from our front porch.
There’s nothing I love more than a good life chat

Jesus is mine, He is better, Jesus only Jesus. In the end, all that matters are people and Him.
I’m a no non-sense, enneagram type 8 who will champion any cause for justice & a kid-at-heart who falls asleep at night excited for the fun tomorrow will bring.
As a high school girl I fell prey to the trap of perfectionism and developed an eating disorder that gripped me tight. Just like clock work, I relapsed again in college.
But after months of recovery, wise counselors, experienced nutritionists & coming to know the love + grace of a Savior in a way I never had, I began to walk in the light and freedom of who I was created to be. Finding joy & contentment in the body I am in, prioritizing health both physically & mentally while engaging in relationships wholeheartedly & authentically is the journey I’m on.
I’m a registered nurse by trade, an EMT, certified emergency nurse & a Forensic Nurse Examiner caring for victims of sexual assault.
It' gets in your blood, the loud rumble of helicopters, ambulance lights & sirens, level one traumas rolling into the ER, procedures in the ICU, the high intensity, fast paced rhythm of it all.
My passion for this work + people led us all the way to China to work the with pediatric orphan population and gave me the opportunity to champion initiatives within my own city of Nashville to provide care & services to victims of sexual assault as a Sexual Assault Forensic Nurse Examiner.
A professional mantra of sorts for me in writing & nursing has been the words of Frederick Buechner that say
“the place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.”
I’m grateful for each day I get to wake up & do the work set before me, whether its typing words that will somehow speak to souls or caring for people who are physically sick until we are all at last home, healed and whole in heaven.
