Good morning friends & family!

I could use your help getting the word out about my new Biblical Counseling private practice! I can’t afford to spend the crazy money on advertising so my close circle like you will be my greatest referral source!

Would you please share this post with my website to help get the word out? Thank you all as always for showing up with your support ❤️

Together with Jesus we can make a difference in the lives of the hurting & lost!

At Salt & Light our founder Val Mayer has extensive Biblical training to apply God’s Word to every counseling situation. Besides her knowledge of scripture and doctrine, she has counseling skills and wisdom that comes from education and experience. Val is committed to assess situations through the...

We live in a beautiful place! These were taken at Parkers Creek in Port Republic, I need to go back soon.

Thought this was a cool photo I took last night. It's crazy they still have a smoking section sign! This was taken at Gateway Restaurant off Broomes Island road.

It reminds me of a time gone by in SOMD. There are still a few of these gems out there if you know where they are. The food is great and most of the people are old school locals.

I am so happy for my client who hung in there like a real trooper!! It was one of those multiple extension, more and more repairs, last minute delay type of deals 🥴👈

In the US recently, 56k real estate contracts were canceled in a single month reaching over 15% because of buyers remorse, inspections, and everything else.

We almost became a statistic but we got it thank God! In the end my client made a 50k profit by investing $9,500 plus $900 in after inspection repairs keeping us under the initial 11k budget. Not bad!!

Not going to lie, real estate is tough right now but more than ever you need the right people in your corner. Everyone came together and made it happen. Thank you to the team for another successful listing sold 🙌

Good morning friends, family and everyone else in between 🤣🙌

I am hoping you will share my news for me today! In addition to my own Biblical counseling practice, I recently interviewed and onboarded with an incredible network of other Christian wellness women at Women Becoming Whole

I have a deep passion for helping those who are hurting and or need direction in many areas of life.
I’m very excited to be apart of this network of other Christian women who feel the same.

Please check out my profile and reach out if you are wanting to connect with me! Thank you as always!

Do you ever feel like YOU AREN’T doing ENOUGH?
I struggle with this and it’s a LIE!

Sure, there are days + weeks, months, years I could have used my time more efficiently, there are days ( most often) that I will put off house work until the very, very last minute and become totally overwhelmed. ( Not my finest hour)

My point is this. Some days I can have it all together and give Martha Stewart a run for money ( ok small fib , but almost) other days if you came by my house would look like I belong on the show Hoarders and my kids and I are still in pajamas.

Note: ( You may also hear rantings of a fed-up mom coming from the back deck as she has corrected her kids for the 15th time that day to treat each other as they wanted to be treated)

With all that being said, at the end odd the day Asher when it really matters… I show up .I show up for my kids, my husband, my mission, my friends, strangers, my career and a bazillion other things throughout the day that I don’t even remember because they are just apart of showing up and you know what?? YOU do all of these things too!!

Here is your reminder and don’t let anyone tell you any different: YOU ARE doing ENOUGH!!

In the meantime, if you are struggling and want someone to talk to , I will show up 🫶

Rest is very important. Resting in HIm is life changing. Resting means to relax, take a break, taking it easy. Resting in Him means all of the above while knowing he is in control and working on your behalf. 🫶🙏

Was lucky enough to snap this when the clouds were awe-inspiring two years ago. I love photos of old docks and sunken wooden boats especially around Solomons Island.
