I’m Back!
Wow—first of all, THANK YOU for being here. After weeks of contemplating, planning, dreaming, and, let’s be honest, avoiding (ha!), I’m finally launching this blog. And fun fact? This isn’t my first go at blogging.
A little over ten years ago, fresh out of college and deep in seminary life, I started a blog where I shared what I was learning in my counseling and Bible courses—plus my favorite style finds and everyday musings. I loved it. Writing felt like an outlet, a space where I could be curious, expressive, and creative. But once I launched my career as a therapist, my focus shifted. I poured everything into building my practice, gaining experience, and growing into the work I love.
Now, looking back on the past decade, I feel incredibly proud. I’ve built a private practice, learned more about business than I ever imagined, cultivated deep and lasting friendships, strengthened family bonds, and prioritized my physical health in ways I never used to. And yet, in the midst of all of that, something has been missing.
Maybe it’s that I finally have the capacity for it, but lately, I’ve been longing for an outlet that brings me pure, uncomplicated joy. When I think back to the times I felt most confident, creative, and bold, one thing always stands out: writing. So here I am—beginning again. No pressure or overthinking. Just sharing from the heart because it makes me happy (and if it resonates with you along the way, even better).
This blog is a space where my passions intersect—the things that have remained constant in my life, no matter the season. Here, you’ll find reflections on three areas that continue to shape me:
God’s Word. My undergraduate degree is in Biblical Studies, and it was during those college years that I fell in love with Scripture. The more I dive into God’s heart for humanity, the more my own heart is stirred with awe and affection.
Emotional Health. As a therapist for over a decade, I’m more convinced than ever that tending to our emotional well-being changes everything. Learning to navigate our emotions with honesty and resilience can transform not just how we feel, but how we live, love, and relate to the world around us.
Style & Beauty. I’ve always loved the art of self-expression—whether it’s playing with new makeup techniques, trying different hairstyles, or finding pieces that feel just right. In high school, I hand-sewed purses out of old t-shirts (iconic). I’ve embraced nearly every trend that came through the late ‘90s and 2000s, and my hair has been blonde, brunette, red, and every shade in between. Style is just fun, and I love the creativity of it.
I’m returning to this space with the same passions, but with a little more life experience under my belt. I’m excited to write again, to share what’s on my heart, and to bring you along for the journey.
And in the sweetest bit of timing, Valentine’s Day just so happens to be today! I actually love Valentine’s Day—everything about it feels so fun and charming to me. For the past six years, my best friend and I have hosted a Galentine’s party for our single girlfriends, and honestly? It’s my favorite day of the year— and it’s happening tonight! So I figured, why not make today even more special? Launching this blog is my little Valentine’s gift to myself.
I hope to post here weekly—though back in the day, I was writing three to five blog posts a week (LOL). As a grown woman with a business, that’s not exactly realistic anymore—but I’m excited to show up here consistently, sharing thoughts, musings, tips, and pieces of my heart.
So, stay tuned for my Galentine’s party recap (it’s going to be good!), and come hang out with me daily over on Instagram @bethanyamoss.
Here’s to new beginnings!
