I had a pen, journal, and a free WordPress website that helped me share my ideas, thoughts and experiences with others. It was small and simple, but it was the beginning of my love for writing, encouragement, and community. 

It all started with a blog called Wake Up Wonder in 2016.

Welcome! I’m Kristina—an author, coach, wife, boy mom, and counselor-in-training dedicated to walking with women through their spiritual and personal growth journeys.

This space is here to explore faith, motherhood, and the beauty of finding grace and purpose in the journey of everyday life. You’ll find what I’m most passionate about: creating resources that encourage and uplift, sharing honest reflections from my own story, and offering coaching for single women who are navigating life with intention and hope.

My mission is to help women live wholeheartedly in every season. Whether you’re single, married, or a mama, I believe there’s something here for you. From spiritual insights and personal growth to encouragement and practical support, I hope this space feels like a deep breath—a reminder that you’re not alone.

Join me as we celebrate the messy and meaningful moments that shape us, embrace growth in imperfection, and find joy in our shared stories.
