In a World Where You Can BE Anything… What will you choose?

Reagan chooses Fighter

Why does the word Fighter resonate with you?

“I have been through a lot of hard stuff in my life.  I make the choice every day to wake and fight.  Fight to be happy.  Fight to be a good mom.  Just fight in general for a better life. I decided about a year ago that I needed to fight.  I had started taking my son to counseling for his behavior and one day as I was driving, something told me that I needed to go to the session without him.  I feel like that was the Lord speaking to me and telling me to get myself back in line.  I hadn’t been walking in faith for a really long time. I am still going to counseling every month and she helps me stay on track and continue to fight. I have had to retrain my brain in how I think and know that I have to fight for myself to be happy and be ok with me being me. I have to do these things to show my son a good example.”

If you could go back and tell a younger Reagan anything, what would you say?

“Find the Lord faster.  Choose a different crowd of people, because the one I chose… really influenced how I grew up and the way I felt.”

 

What type of man do you hope you son grows to become?

“Be respectful.  Have manners.  Be kind… it makes life so much easier if you are just kind.”

The BE Necklace Line – created by Woolard’s Custom Jewelers

In 2016, I partnered with a good friend of mine and Woolard’s Custom Jewelers in Burleson, TX  to create a necklace line.  The idea and intent behind these necklaces was to be a gentle reminder of you we are striving to be, day in and day out.  We often forget that beyond all of that, all of the day to day responsibilities and challenges… we are strong, beautiful, inspiring and so many other things.  We are greater than what we feel every day. To remember that you are capable of great things. If you could BE anything… what would you BE?  The stories you are reading here on the blog are to celebrate women and learn more about why they have chosen the words that resonate with them.

For more information on purchasing a necklace, please visit Woolard’s Custom Jewelers online store.

What is The BE Project?

Have you ever stopped to think about who or what you want to be?  Most often there is a word that drives you.  If you sit in the silence and really think about what type of person you want to be… there will be a word, sometimes more than one word, that will guide you along and push you to keep being a better version of yourself.  This photo project has become something that has touched my heart and hopefully those that have participated. I chose to shoot all of the images in black and white because I wanted the least amount of distractions.  Just the human and the word.   This project is the stories of some amazing people, their stories, and what these words mean to them.  Some have participated each of the 4 years we have done this, some are new each time.  It’s an amazing honor to follow along in their journey and document who they are becoming.

Want to read more stories from others in our community and their BE words?  Head over to the BE Project Page and read the stories of the amazing humans that have participated. 

I challenge you to find a word that resonates with you.  Who do you want to strive to be?  What word leads you day to day?  Join us in our project – what word will describe who you want to BE?
