Inspiration in Your Inbox


Below are six websites that offer inspirational and/or self-empowerment messages that are sent directly to your email address.
I love getting these messages because they help to center me, to remind me that the world is wider than my own doorstep and that I am not alone in my challenges and struggles.  They lift me up and gift me with positives to bolster my heart, reframe my day and re-create my thoughts.  They are a way to nurture myself, to exercise my mind, to open my heart and to feed my soul.  Inspiration sent directly to me, in the privacy of my inbox.  What could be simpler?

Life can be so very hectic and busy.Our commitments and connections, no matter how well appreciated and loved, can leave little time for ourselves. But we ARE worth the time.
Whether you’ve spent the morning trying to keep up with a couple of toddlers, are winding down after a day at the office, are weary after caring for an elderly parent, are living another day with chronic pain or health issues, or are simply feeling tired and discouraged, receiving positive messages in your inbox can provide a breath of encouragement and a spark of joy.  And we can all benefit from that.
Check them out.  Visit the links.  See if one or more calls to you or feels right for you. 

The Brave Girls Club - click on 'Daily Emails' near the top of the page. Messages are sent most days, Monday through Friday.
  • A Little Birdie Told Me, for adult Brave Girls. You can find a sample message here

Come Join Me!


Welcome to my second blog!!  I’ve been blessed to both give and receive inspiration in my daily life and in my online social networking and felt called to start The Bottomless Heart as a way of sharing with you.

I am always looking for ways to enrich my life and my days and this blog is my invitation to you journey with me as I learn how to live a better, more abundant life in a world that is constantly challenging and changing me!

This is a blog encouraging quality of life, no matter the circumstances you find yourself in.  From the practical to the more ephemeral, you’ll be able to find ideas for stretching your dollars, feeding body and soul, nurturing yourself, finding strength and resources to move ahead and encourage creativity of ALL kinds.


It is also a blog about living with crises – from financial hardship, to emotional challenges, to chronic illness and disabilities.  It is about thinking ‘outside the box”; finding ways to transform and heal our life experiences in ways that can reconnect us with our bottomless hearts.


The things I hope to write about will include
Saving $
Food & nutrition
Feeding your soul and finding inspiration
Creativity for both yourself and your family/children
Finding resources in your community
Navigating the systems that can help – or hinder - you
Alternate incomes
Recycling/Repurposing
Advocacy and volunteering
Support networks
Roadmaps & Inspiration boards
Reading/books

Eventually, I hope to bring you guest posts from people who will add even more inspiration to our lives and I'll occasionally offer free printables on various topics.  If you have something that you'd like to see covered here, let me know and I'll see what I can do.  I will always be open to your input and ideas!

It’s going to be a wonderful journey!  I hope that you’ll share it with me.
