Hi! My name is Becca Joy. I’m a twenty something Catholic somewhere between surviving and thriving with a little help from both grace and coffee. I love writing here by day and working as a nurse by night. Thanks for visiting!

Arguably both the cutest and most dramatic member of the family (swipe for proof) this 🐥 remains a game-changer in her own right. @mariaglory (Mimi, Mia, Marieeee, Gigi, etc. etc.) is a powerhouse who knows who she is and what she wants and sure as hell will let you know it. • She will make you give your ice cream back to the Jeni’s man who forgot your sprinkles when you’d rather walk away quietly. In this scenario she A) knows the value of a good sprinkle and B) knows it’s okay to ask for what you need... Obviously, she has no problem standing up for herself or the people she loves. Who knew ice cream could be so profound? • This gal knows too many of the lyrics to Hamilton, has a fascinating collection of records, an absurd amount of clothing, and will make you laugh til you cry. • Thanks for putting up with a house full of nurses and listening to us talk about body fluids so often. Thanks for helping our fam grow a little more in the communication department and for always saying what you think. Above all, thanks for always being unapologetically your most confident self. I respect you and can’t wait to see what adventures you tackle in the year ahead. • Go Vols 🍊 . . . #wcw #govols #volnation #gobigorange #womancrushwednesday #bissisterhood #blessedisshe #verilymoment #empoweredwomenempowerwomen #letterstoyou #catholic #catholicblogger #catholiccreatives #theinstagramlab

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.” • C.S. Lewis basically telling us to love our pets. Or something like that. • Seriously, though, don’t let heartbreak scare you into hiding away. You’re too cool for that ✌🏻 . . . #mondaymotivation #corgisofinstagram #projectblessed #bissisterhood #catholiccreatives #verilymoment #catholicblogger #letterstoyou #blessedisshe #flashesofdelight #pursuepretty #theinstagramlab

Grief is complicated. One week you’re mourning a love lost, the next week you’re sorting through the reality of something much more serious. • The girl in this picture used to think abuse was easy to recognize- in her mind, sexual and physical assault were the only varieties, and identification was fairly straightforward. She’d be able to protect herself, no problem. • What I’ve learned instead is that emotional, psychological, spiritual, sexual, and physical abuse is much broader, more nuanced, and more complicated than that. • If you’ve had to suffer any kind of abuse, ever, don’t let anyone tell you you’re crazy. • You deserve nothing less than respect. • You are good. • You are loved. • Link in bio. . . . . . #divorcerecovery #divorce #traumarecovery #selflove #blessedisshe #catholicdivorce #projectblessed #bissisterhood #catholiccreatives #verilymoment #catholicblogger #letterstoyou
