Hi friends! You have landed at elisajoyful.com, where I write about life and love, fun and hardship, and the ways we find joy in the middle. (If you’re looking for the SiNes of Life podcast, you’re almost in the right place - just click on the “Listen to Podcast” link below.)

Here you will read stories about the four boys who call me Mom, the software-CEO-turned-IRONMAN who I call Husband, life as an ISFJ married to an ENTP, and the ways God reveals His goodness through the delights and absurdities and difficulties of life. We've made our home in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona, a place in which I've been slowly but surely learning to see the beauty.

May the things you find here encourage you to find the beauty around you too. xoxo

welcome
