Let's welcome today with
Let Your Light Shine Thursday!
I hope everyone is having a great week! As many of you know, we have a new co- host for LYLS Thursday link-ups. Aisha and I (two Aisha's! Still can't get over it) have discussed ways on how we can "re-vamp" this link up every week and because this link- up is called Let Your Light Shine, we want to get to know you better by not just presenting a cute outfit or great post, but give you the opportunity to share how your light shines. Please contact me if you would like to be featured on #Herlightshines for our link ups!

Today on the link up, please say hello to Andie Conn! You can also go say hello to her personally by visiting her blog, Bravely!
Now go ahead and link up!
1. What
is your name? Andie Conn.
2. Where
are you from? I was born and raised in Texas but have lived in Missouri for
seven years now. I may be in South Korea soon!
3. What
is your blog called and what do you primarily talk about? (include link) My
blog is called Bravely, a Christian community overcoming depression and
despondency with creativity and passion. I write about DIY projects,
organization, faith, holistic wellness, and gluten free recipes. I also conduct
interviews with real people every Monday for inspiration and encouragement, and
I have started a kindness challenge including weekly prompts every Sunday.
4. What
do you do for a living? Not much right now! My husband is a teacher and we are
in the process of applying to teach overseas. I'm so excited to go on such a
big adventure!
5. Tell
us a bit about yourself. What are some of your hobbies? What do you like to do
outside of blogging? I like to do so many things! I am an artist, and I really
enjoy making illustrations in my spare time (I've always had a dream of writing
and illustrating a children's book). Reading, journaling, crafting, exercising,
hiking, shopping for weird sweaters, touching every cat I see, watering my many
succulent plants, learning the basics of the Korean language, drinking tea, making
gluten free treats, and giving my husband kisses are all some of my favorite
activities! I stay pretty busy (:
6. What
is something unique about you that others may not know? I am probably
single-handedly keeping Ben and Jerry's in business. Also, confession: I like
to dress up, but my husband buys about 99% of my clothes and still helps me get
dressed on some mornings. He's the most fashion-wise straight person I know.
For real, though.
7. In what way do you let your light shine? ( this could be anything really. From being
intentional about being kind, volunteering, helping your kids, etc.) I try to
let my light shine by surprising others with little handmade gifts and
trinkets, often anonymously.
8.
If you could have one quote that you would want people
to remember you by, what would it be? (your favorite quote) "I write when
I’m inspired, and I see to it that I’m inspired at nine o’clock every
morning." – Peter De Vries
Now go ahead and link up!
