Where Adventure Meets Home Some people spend their lives searching for home. Others discover that home isn't always a place. Sometimes, it's a person. For Carsen Moore, life has been shaped by movement. From growing up in the waterfront town of Gig Harbor, Washington, to living in Hawaii, Iowa, Alaska, and now California, every place has left its mark. "I've been fortunate enough to live in Hawaii, Iowa, Alaska, and now California. Each place has shaped me in different ways a

Building a Life That Feels Like Home There comes a moment after the wedding is over, after the dress is packed away and the photos have been shared, when marriage quietly begins. Not in grand gestures. But in ordinary mornings, shared routines, future plans, and the comforting realization that you're no longer preparing for life together, you're already living it. For Jordan Cook, this season has been exactly that. A season of building. "Today I feel like someone who's built

Love, Grace & Building a Life That Feels True Some women carry strength quietly. Not in grand declarations or perfectly curated moments, but in the way they continue showing up, for their families, for themselves, and for the life they’ve worked hard to build. Samantha Gliniak is one of those women. An oncology RN, mother of three, newlywed, animal lover, and woman who rebuilt her life through resilience and intention, Samantha speaks about love and family with refreshing hon

Grace in the Chaos, Beauty in the Becoming There are women who seem to hold entire worlds in their hands, women who nurture, build, pray, create, and love deeply, often all at once. Michelle is one of them. A believer, wife, mother to twin girls, and expecting a baby boy this July, Michelle is living a season many would call overwhelming. She calls it growth. “I’m building my business, raising my girls, and just doing my best to balance it all while keeping it real,” she says

A Love Story Written in Fate, Culture, and Courage Some love stories begin slowly. Others arrive in a single moment, unexpected, unforgettable, and impossible to ignore. For Sahel, it began on a night meant to celebrate her birthday. While out to dinner with her family, she noticed someone seated at the table beside them. His name was Arang. What began as a simple glance quickly turned into something more powerful. “Our eyes met and just stayed there,” Sahel remembers. When A

Rooted in Grace: A Life of Love, Faith, and Quiet Strength In a world that celebrates constant motion, Jessica Mosallam embodies something far deeper—intentional stillness, enduring strength, and a fierce devotion to her role as a wife, mother, and woman of faith. Her days are structured with purpose, filled with the rhythm of family life: from weekday routines to weekend hikes, pool days in the summer, and shared moments that tether the hearts of her husband and children to

She Played the Violin. They Answered With a Bullet. Sanam Pourbabaei was 26. A violin teacher. A daughter. A friend. She was shot in the head during a peaceful protest on January 8, 2026, in Lahijan, Iran. She was unarmed. She was running away. She was simply present. Her family was denied access to her body for days. Only after repeated visits, and a reported payment, was she buried, under heavy surveillance. No funeral. No music. Only silence.

Intimate, Intentional, Unforgettable When it came to planning her wedding, Sam Cheyenne did things differently, and beautifully. Just months after getting engaged in August, she and her partner decided to skip the long engagement and create a celebration that felt completely true to them. “Originally it was supposed to be an engagement party. But then we figured, why wait?” she says. From that moment on, their focus became clarity and connection: “The day was about our rel

When Parallel Lives Meet Paul asked Candice out on the very day his divorce was finalized. She had been his divorce attorney. At the time, Candice was also going through her own divorce, and dating was the last thing on her mind. “Definitely not as salacious as it sounds,” she says. Encouraged by her sister to “go have fun,” Candice said yes, never expecting that she’d be saying “I do” down the line. Their connection grew slowly and steadily. “We realized we had been living

A Love That Was Meant To Be Kelli and Joe’s love story began at a birthday party where fate did what it does best. “As soon as we locked eyes, we were literally inseparable,” Kelli recalls. Their connection was instant, magnetic, and electric. One that drowned out the room and turned strangers into soulmates in a single night. Within a year, they were engaged, proof that when love is this right, you don’t waste a second. The Surprise That Changed Everything Joe’s proposal was
