New Book Update: Incompetent but Hopeful 🤍🐝

It’s been a while since I last shared a book update, and if I’m being honest, that silence wasn’t because nothing was happening—it was because everything was happening.

Writing this book has required more than time. It has required stillness. It has required courage. And most of all, it has required obedience.

Incompetent but Hopeful is not just a manuscript I’ve been editing behind the scenes—it’s a testimony that has been unfolding in real time. Every chapter I revisit reminds me that this story was never meant to be rushed. Some stories need space to breathe before they can be shared.

Incompetent but Hopeful is moving very close to print.

This phase feels especially sacred. The cover is the very first thing you see, and I want it to reflect the heart of the story inside—gentle, honest, faith-filled, and hopeful. Every color, texture, and detail is being chosen with intention. This book carries stories of loss, waiting, healing, and God’s faithfulness, and the cover matters because it sets the tone for all of it.

Once the cover is finalized, the next step is printing—something that still feels surreal to say out loud. What began as obedience and quiet writing moments is becoming a tangible book that will soon be held, read, and hopefully used as a place of comfort for women walking through grief and longing.

I used to believe productivity was proof of purpose. I don’t believe that anymore. Some seasons require slowness. Some seasons require listening more than producing. As I continued writing, I realized God was still doing work in me, not just through me. And I didn’t want to publish a version of this book that skipped the healing just to meet a timeline.

This book holds stories of loss that occurred in November—months that forever changed how I experience holidays, joy, and grief. Writing those chapters meant reopening wounds I had learned to live around. But I also learned something powerful in the process: healing doesn’t mean forgetting—it means remembering with hope instead of despair.

Thank You for Walking With Me

To everyone who has checked in, prayed, waited patiently, and supported this journey—thank you. Truly. Your encouragement has mattered more than you know. Writing can feel lonely, but this journey hasn’t been, because of you.

I’ll be sharing cover updates, release timing, and pre-order details very soon. Until then, please know this: every delay has been intentional, and every page has been written with purpose.

Hope is still here.
Even when we feel incompetent.
Especially then.
