I’m in the final stretch, closing is done, and the move is right around the corner.

This has been more than just a move. It’s been a transition in how I live, how I hold space, and how I show up in my work as clergy.

I don’t have everything mapped out yet, and I’m okay with that.

What I do know is that something new is taking shape. Slower, more intentional, and rooted in real life.

I’ll share more once I’m settled.

“You don’t have to rush into the light.
You just have to stop abandoning yourself in the dark.”

A personal milestone and a reminder for anyone rebuilding their life.

After a long season of uncertainty and rebuilding, I am currently in the process of purchasing a home. Closing is April 2nd if all goes well. It will become my home base for my clergy work, Unity and The Kinship Network moving forward.

The past several years have tested me in ways I never expected , divorce, the pandemic, financial hardship, and more moves than I care to count. There were times I truly didn’t know if stability would ever return.

But little by little, life can be rebuilt.

This home will become a place where I can continue my work, deepen community connections, and create space for spiritual conversation, support, and growth.

If you are walking through a season where everything feels stacked against you, please don’t give up on yourself.

Rebuilding from nothing is hard. Sometimes it takes years. Sometimes there are tears along the way. Many tears, but that’s ok, it is part of the healing process.

But the path forward still exists.

Keep your head up. Keep your heart open. Keep walking.

New roots can still grow, even after the hardest storms.

Stay tuned….

A gentle personal note today.

I’m currently moving through a season of transition in my own life, the kind that asks for patience, trust, and a willingness to let the next steps reveal themselves in their own timing.

There are some practical pieces in motion (housing, logistics, the usual human things), and for now I’m choosing to walk it one steady step at a time rather than rush clarity before it arrives.

What remains unchanged is my commitment to this path, this work, and the quiet sacred that lives inside ordinary days.

Sometimes ministry looks like standing at the threshold with your own life… and breathing there with intention.

I’m here.
I’m steady.
And I trust what is still unfolding.

With care,
Amber

Imbolc arrives quietly.

Just the subtle promise that the longest nights are behind us.

There is a sacred teaching in this holy day:

You do not have to rush your becoming.

Beneath frozen ground, seeds are gathering strength.
Roots are forming.
Life is preparing, unseen, but unstoppable.

If you feel tender… still healing… still waiting…
you are not late.

You are seasonal.

Today, I invite you to honor the small flame within your life, the one that refused to go out, even in your hardest winter.

Tend it gently.

Protect it.

Trust it.

Spring has always found its way back.

And it will again.

Imbolc arrives softly.
With a subtle shift in the light.
A quiet remembering that life is still stirring beneath the frozen ground.

This is the season of tending what is small.
The fragile hope.
The flicker of intuition.
The ember of faith in yourself.

A solitary ritual for this threshold:

Light a candle in silence.
Place a hand over your heart.
And speak aloud what you are willing to tend over the coming weeks, thise things that you will gently nurture.

Imbolc teaches us that quiet devotion changes everything.
