About Me — Emily B. Mingledorff
From Survivor to Thriver! www.outsideofperfect.com
The screen reads, “Tell your story.” I know it’s just an introduction, but how do you summarize who you are in a couple of paragraphs? Do you start with the good or the bad, boldly speak the truth at the moment, or candidly present the mistakes which made you?
I know… I’m overthinking it…
About me… Other than being an overthinker, I’ve beaten addiction, survived physical and mental abuse, struggled with depression, and fought codependency, all things which have pointed me toward God.
I’m a wife to an extraordinary Army man who shows me grace on a daily basis and a mother to three remarkable kids who make me want to be a better person.
I’m a teacher at heart, formerly a classroom teacher and children’s pastor, always searching for the lesson in everyday things and looking for my next student.
More About Me: The Business Side
I’m a children’s author passionate about inspiring kids and a freelance writer and blogger who wants to change the world with words. (Find more here!)
And finally, I’m a starving artist 🙃 because I don’t get paid much yet, but I won’t abandon my passion for writing. 💁🏼♀️
In a nutshell, I’m a survivor trying to become a thriver! 💪🏼 And I fully intend to succeed. ❣️
