How One Blogger Found Encouragement in Difficult Times
Our new bloggers series continues with Melissa, who started Living in the Wait.
Her blog serves as a resource for those waiting for something in their lives, whether it’s a job, spouse, home or something else.
Melissa discovered you can still live life during that time of waiting for something your heart desperately desires.
In Melissa’s case, she and her husband were waiting for a family due to infertility. It’s a painful topic to talk about, but Melissa felt like it was her calling to share her story.
Blogging about her journey and wait has brought joy to her life. She wants to continue encouraging people going through difficult times.
First-year blogging highlights:
Started The Wait List featuring guest posts to connect with others who were also waiting
Selected as recipient of ProBlogger scholarship to further the blog's reach
Generated cycle of encouragement: live life to the fullest, and give back to others
Melissa’s blogging tips:
Progress over perfection
Celebrate your wins
