Do Something Beautiful
People are good. You might not think that if you listen to traditional news, but that's a lie. Everyday heroes and saints live among us and my goal is to introduce them to you.We are inspired by the words of Mother Teresa, "Do something beautiful for God. Do it with your life. Do it every day. Do it in your own way. But do it!” Leah Darrow, former model and contestant on America's Next Top Model, draws on her experience in the beauty industry to expose the lies we are told about our worth being tied to our appearance and instead invites us to look again at the real meaning of beauty in service to mankind.

56: The Gift of Autism
Carolyn is a mom, a blogger, and an Etsy artist who spends a large portion of her time raising her family of five boys. She loves her role as a mother, and though it comes with its challenges, knows of the gift that each of her children are to this world.
In our conversation, Carolyn takes us through the journey of raising a son with autism. Though the diagnosis was hard, she has come to see the sunny side of autism through her son, Emmett. She challenges us to follow other moms with special needs children on Instagram including Shannon, Kristin, Mary, and Sylvia.
