OH HEY!

I'm Rachel and the creator of The Well Place. I love all things hope and Jesus. I'm Momma to three ginger babies, one of which (Samuel) is a medical miracle, and I'm married to my viking. I write on all things faith, marriage, family, parenting, fitness, and a sprinkle of home. My hope is to reach new moms and glean wisdom from ol' pros. I hope to encourage and inspire women to embrace the gift that they are, and families to dive deeper. My heart is to lean in, speak life, and let the light shine!

DAUGHTER OF THE KING + WIFE TO MY VIKING + MOMMA TO OUR THREE + WELLNESS

Hi, I'm Rachel! My identity is pretty simple. It is at the feet of Jesus, clinging, resting, hoping, and abiding-that's the core of who I am. I have been given the most beautiful and kind man, and the sweetest and tenderhearted babies a woman could dream of.

Our home life, how we love and function as a family, how we fight for eachother, stand for what's right, and look to the light is what anchors our family identity to the King.

And wellness. I just love it. I loved it playing sports growing up, I loved studying about it in college, and I love it now after I've had three children. I love inspiring, encouraging, and (mildly) obsessing over how the body functions, moves, and gets stronger when we             GO FOR IT!

This life, our story and each capture is a glimpse and a testimony to the goodness of God. We (and certainly, I) am faaaar from perfect and this story is about grace.  Through our journey with our youngest, Samuel, who was born as a micropreemie after given little to no chance at life, I have seen the glory that cannot be unseen. We have battled grief and fear and pain and deep, seemingly hopeless valleys, but we have also been brought to the edge of the well, where faithfullness and goodness, rescue, and peace resides. This blog, these writings are to glorify the rescuer, the promise keeper, and the life giver.
