We had the best time at this weekend’s Mommy & Me Salsa Class, sponsored by @perelelhealth ! 💛Motherhood was never meant to be done alone, and that’s exactly why I love Perelel’s mission of supporting women through every stage of motherhood not just with thoughtful nutrition, but by helping moms feel seen, supported, and cared for.I loved being able to combine culture and community by bringing mamas together to move our bodies, laugh, and make memories with our littles. These are the moments that remind us we’re not doing this alone. 🫶🏽And can we talk about the amazing goodies?! ✨ Thank you to @perelelhealth , @coterie , and @nemah.co for absolutely spoiling us. And a huge thank you to @continuum.move for creating such a beautiful space for mamas and our littles to gather.Creating spaces where moms feel supported is exactly why Selah Social Club exists, and I’m so grateful to partner with brands like Perelel that are investing in mothers beyond the product. Here’s to more moments that remind moms they have a village. 🤍If you’re a Chicago mama looking for genuine community, follow @selahsocialclub.co so you don’t miss our next event.

POV: You step outside feeling like that girl… then remember you’re a mom and your tiny roommate has a bedtime. 😂The fit deserved to be out, but it’ll settle being home by 5:30.Mom life doesn’t stop the outfit appreciation though. ✨@Nuuly making me feel cute, even if my plans are… significantly less exciting these days😅 #NuulyPartner #Nuuly #cluubnuuly #mom #OOTD by @itsmeldurrant

Our story wasn’t linear… it was intentional. 🤍Last night we wrapped teaching our first 6-week Attachment Patterns & Relationships course and had the opportunity to share a little of our story with the cohort. One thing I always come back to is this: I truly married my best friend and healthy marriages are like a friendship on 🔥. X and I met 8 years before we ever had romantic interest in each other. We worked together, served in ministry together, and built a genuine friendship long before we went on our first date.This is something we talk about often with our matchmaking and dating coaching clients: pacing.When we’re excited about someone, it’s easy to put our foot on the gas. But by God’s design, our story was a slow burn. Over the years, I got to watch Xavier in seasons of lack and abundance, stress, and joy in the safety of community. I saw him lead publicly and love people privately. Most importantly, I watched him become a man continually transformed by the Word.Here’s what I love about our story: the preparation was slow, but once God gave the green light, things moved fast. From our first date to our wedding day was just 11 months. The foundation had been built long before we ever called it dating.That’s why we spend so much time helping singles understand both pacing and attachment patterns. Our wounds can often dictate how we date, but healing helps us discern instead of simply react.Sometimes God’s timing looks like waiting. Sometimes it looks like moving quickly. Either way, His timing is always intentional.✨ If you’re single, I’d love to know: What has God been teaching you about pacing, waiting, or dating? Share in the comments.And if you’re looking for Christ-centered support in your dating journey whether through coaching, taking a course or matchmaking—follow @thelastlap.co and join us. We’d love to walk alongside you.#marriage #dating #christian #christiandating #single by @itsmeldurrant

POV: You thought marrying your spouse was the hard part… then you realized you still had to earn “cool Titi” (Aunt) status. 😂4 years in plus a baby and I’m still proving myself one dance move at a time. 😂To all my fellow “new” aunts by marriage… the initiation period is REAL. Luckily I married into the most incredible family.Who else is still working for that cool Titi title? 🙋🏽‍♀️ Thanks for letting me dance mom your kids @jayytwenty @boo.d.du @backtoattachment 😂#Married #wife #FamilyHumor #Mom #familyvacation by @itsmeldurrant
