Your Past Doesn’t Define Your Future

Leave a Comment / Relatable Experiences / Megan Nelson

This week, I want to share something I read in the book Iron Hope by James Lawrence. For a bit of background, James Lawrence was the keynote speaker at our NATE UNITE show this last February. He’s an endurance athlete who is known as the “Iron Cowboy” because he has broken the world record for […]

Running Adventures!

Leave a Comment / Health and Wellness / Megan Nelson

I have a little feel-good, fun story for you this week. Twice a week I get up at 4:30am to run with a couple friends in the wee hours of the morning. It’s peaceful and the traffic usually isn’t bad – only a handful of times have we run into any “excitement” on our runs.

It Matters Who You Marry

Leave a Comment / Relatable Experiences / Megan Nelson

I want to give a little shout out to Dan this week. We’ve been through a lot over the last couple of months and there’s been a lot of grief. I’ve probably been a little difficult to be around sometimes as I try to manage my emotions, but he hasn’t left my side once. If

“Find Your Joy” Author Event

1 Comment / Becoming an Author / Megan Nelson

This week’s post is a little late, but I wanted to write about the “Find Your Joy” author event held Saturday at the Huron Library.  I mentioned a few weeks ago the library had reached out to me back in February and asked if I’d participate in this event. I’d have the opportunity to sell

Back to the Grind

Leave a Comment / Health and Wellness / Megan Nelson

After three weeks off of running, it was nice to get back out there this week. And even though I was still walking every day during the break, I was a little worried it would be tough getting back into the swing of things. My muscles were a little sore, but overall, it felt really

Good Things Take Time

1 Comment / Relatable Experiences / Megan Nelson

I found myself getting very upset with God this week. I’m usually a strong believer in “everything happens for a reason,” but sometimes, I just don’t understand what that reason is. And no matter how much I plead and beg with Him to help me understand, I don’t. And who knows if I ever will.

Some Beach

Leave a Comment / Relatable Experiences / Megan Nelson

It has been an emotionally tolling week – we’ve all been there. One thing that did lift my spirits was that this time last year Dan and I were on our honeymoon in Belize, and all the photos have been popping up in my memories this week. I’m choosing to focus on the sunny beach

Join Me in Huron – April 18!

Leave a Comment / Becoming an Author / Megan Nelson

I haven’t talked about my books much lately. While I’ve still been working on my writing here and there, I’ll admit it’s been taking a seat on the back burner for a little while now. Although – I’m almost to the 100-page mark in book #3, so that’s pretty cool. 🙂 Anyway, I wanted to

Permission to Rest: Taking it Easy When You’re Sick

1 Comment / Relatable Experiences / Megan Nelson

Has anyone else noticed that after a very stressful event, your body just kind of gives out on you!? It’s like it knows you finally have time to relax, so obviously you have time to be sick too, right? That’s what happened here. I got back from Vegas on Friday, and by Monday, I had

NATE UNITE 2026

Leave a Comment / Milestones and Special Occasions / Megan Nelson

I did it! I survived my fourth NATE UNITE tradeshow. As usual, it was a loooong week, but it was a good week too. This year brought us to Las Vegas, Nevada. I’ve only been to Las Vegas once before and it was just a weekend trip. This week gave me the opportunity to explore
