📖 "This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." — Psalm 118:24

If I'm being transparent, that isn't always easy.

I'm about 8 months pregnant, exhausted, uncomfortable, it's HOT here in Virginia, my 2-year-old has decided sleeping through the night is optional, and my to-do list before maternity leave next month seems to get longer every day. 🤪

Some days, rejoicing feels more like a choice than a feeling.

But even in the middle of the exhaustion, there is always something to be thankful for.

God has been so faithful through every season—the easy ones and the hard ones. 🙌 When I look back, I can see His provision, His guidance, and His grace over and over again.

So today, I'm choosing gratitude.

I'm thankful for healthy babies, a supportive family, meaningful work, and the opportunity to serve others each day.

What are you thankful for on this Monday? ❤️

I turned down a job offer from the CIA years ago...

At the time, it felt like I was letting go of a dream.

Yesterday, watching my kids finish another school year, I'm reminded of what I gained instead. ❤️

If you had asked me 20 years ago whether I wanted to be a parent someday, I probably would've said, *"Nah, I could take it or leave it."* 😂

Back then, I had big dreams of living abroad, traveling the world, and building an exciting career. 🌍 Motherhood wasn't exactly at the top of my list.

Little did I know that God had a very different plan.

Today, my husband and I have three amazing children, with baby #4 on the way. 🥰

And while being a mom is by far the toughest job I've ever had, it's also the MOST rewarding.

➡️ How is it possible to be so exhausted and so in love at the same time?

These little people test my patience daily, keep me humble, and stretch me in ways I never expected. Yet somehow, they make my life richer and more meaningful than I ever imagined.

👉 Anyone else experience this??

This school year was a big one for our family.

Not only did the kids tackle all the normal academic and social challenges that come with school, but they also endured a move—which isn't easy for anyone, especially children.

And they handled it with so much resilience. 👏

They've grown tremendously.

They've worked hard.

They've adapted, persevered, and accomplished so much.

I'm incredibly proud of each of them. 💕

As we kick off summer, I'm looking forward to slowing down a bit, making memories together, and soaking up this season before it slips away too quickly.

God is so kind to entrust us with these precious kiddos. 🙏

The CIA would've been an adventure.

But I'm pretty sure this one is even better.

☀️ What are you most looking forward to this summer?

Most people assume the safest investments are the ones with the most layers of “protection.” 🤔

More reports.
More approvals.
More third parties.
More boxes checked.

But after spending years in real estate investing and lending, I’ve learned something interesting:

Processes don’t eliminate risk.
People do.

A bad operator can still lose money with an appraisal in hand.
A disciplined operator can make excellent decisions without one.

That might sound controversial in the lending world, especially with hard money lending.

A lot of lenders don’t use third-party appraisals and instead underwrite deals internally. To some people, that sounds reckless.

I understand why.

But what doesn’t get discussed enough is that appraisals have holes too.

If a report comes in low, the loan gets reduced, the borrower gets frustrated, and the deal often dies. Over time, that dynamic can shape outcomes just like internal bias can. 👎

At Mach Speed Lending, we handle valuations in-house very carefully.

➡️ We study comps, renovation budgets, neighborhood trends, borrower experience, property condition, and so much more BEFORE funding a deal.

And as a licensed real estate agent in Virginia, I personally pull a CMA (Comparable Market Analysis) on every loan we underwrite. Having a strong pulse on our market matters. 📊🏡

Most importantly, our own capital was the first in the fund and it's at risk along with our family/friends/investors.

If a deal goes sideways, we lose money. 💰

That creates a level of discipline and accountability you can’t fake.

I’m not anti-appraisal. They absolutely have their place, and my husband and I have personally spent a lot of money on appraisals over the years for properties we've bought.

I just think the conversation around risk and valuations is much more nuanced than people realize.

The best lenders I know don’t blindly rely on reports.

They deeply understand their market, their borrowers, and the numbers behind the deal. 💪

What’s more important in lending: the appraisal or the rehabber/builder behind the deal?

Life lately feels like 47 browser tabs open all at once… and one of them is definitely playing music, but I can’t figure out which one. 😂

Anyone else feel like they return from vacation to approximately 947 unread emails, 38 urgent things, and a brain that’s still mentally in another country? 🌍🙋♀️

Meanwhile over here:

🏊 We’re trying to get the pool ready for my daughter’s birthday party this weekend… except the pool decided it needed repairs first. Of course. 🤦♀️

🏘️ My husband and I's build-to-rent properties were JUST completed this week, and now we’re deep in the refinance process.

💰 At Mach Speed Lending, we also have a number of new loan applications, investor meetings, and property tours happening right now — which is exciting, but definitely adding to the chaos in the best way. 😅

📚 School is wrapping up, which somehow means every child has 17 activities, performances, parties, and events all happening at once.

🤰 And I’m currently 32 weeks pregnant, carrying around what feels like a bowling ball while trying to keep up with life. The fatigue is REAL lately. 😴

It’s one of those seasons where everything good seems to happen at the exact same time… and while I’m incredibly grateful, I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t overwhelming too.

But honestly? This is also why I care so much about building passive income and creating more flexibility in life.

Because busy seasons are inevitable.
Family needs are inevitable.
Unexpected repairs are inevitable.

And having more control over your time makes all of it a little easier to navigate. 💙

For now, if anyone needs me, I’ll be:
➡️ answering emails
➡️ scheduling contractors
➡️ touring properties
➡️ meeting with investors
➡️ refinancing properties
➡️ buying birthday decorations
➡️ trying not to fall asleep at 3 PM

Happy almost-summer, parents. We’re all out here surviving together! 😂

P.S. Don't look too closely at this picture or you'll see my toddler who is throwing things into her potty! 👎

10 years ago today, God gave us one of the greatest gifts of our lives — Scarlett. 💙🎉

What started as a normal day quickly became the scariest day we’d ever experienced. I developed severe preeclampsia & HELLP syndrome, and both Scarlett and I nearly lost our lives. I spent days in the ICU, underwent multiple surgeries, and don’t remember the first few days after she was born.

But God was faithful through it all. 🙏

And somehow, out of one of the hardest seasons came one of the greatest blessings.

Scarlett, you are truly one of the most incredible people I know. 🥹 You are creative, ambitious, driven, hardworking, kind, and wise beyond your years. You love Jesus, love others deeply, and are the BEST big sister your siblings could ask for. 💕 Watching the way you encourage, help, protect, and care for them melts my heart.

You are strong, capable, and determined — and I genuinely believe you can do anything you set your mind to. ✨

The last 10 years with you have been some of the very best of my life. I thank God every single day that He allowed me to stay here and be your mom. 💙

Happy 10th birthday, sweet girl. The world is brighter because you’re in it. 🎂🎈

P.S. here are her birthdays over the years. 📸 More pics to come as her 10th bday party is next weekend! 🎉

🚫 We turn down a LOT more loans than we fund.

And honestly? That’s one of the reasons our investors trust us.

Not every borrower fits our criteria.
Not every property is a good deal.
And we’re completely okay walking away.

Why? Because protecting our own capital — and our investors’ capital — is our top priority. 🙏

My partners and I were the FIRST investors into our fund. This isn’t “other people’s money” to us. We have a lot on the line personally, and we take stewardship seriously.

That’s why our due diligence process is thorough:

✅ Background checks
✅ Credit checks
✅ Like-kind experience required
✅ Proven track record (yes, we ask for HUDs)
✅ Detailed underwriting
✅ Conservative leverage
✅ Lots of documentation

Sometimes borrowers get frustrated by how many questions we ask or how much paperwork we require… but there’s a reason. 👏

In private lending, it’s easy to get excited about volume and growth. But long-term success comes from discipline, not just deploying capital fast. 💰

We’d rather miss out on a deal than make a bad one.

Strong returns mean very little if risk isn’t managed wisely. That’s especially important in today’s market.

At the end of the day, our goal isn’t just to grow a fund. It’s to build something sustainable, trustworthy, and built to last — while helping experienced investors transform properties and communities along the way. 🏡

The best lenders aren’t afraid to say "no."

And honestly? Some of the best decisions we’ve made have been the deals we didn’t do. 🙏

The stock market is great … until it’s not. 📉

So why are so many people relying on it as their ONLY retirement strategy?

Retirement investing can feel like a rollercoaster sometimes 🎢 — especially when your future depends on markets you can’t control.

That’s why I think more people should start asking themselves a bigger question:

➡️ “Should ALL of my retirement dollars really be sitting in traditional stocks and bonds?”

Diversification matters. Not just for returns — but for peace of mind and flexibility later in life.

I recently came across this article from Fox Business breaking down how much people need to retire in each state, and honestly… the numbers are staggering. 😳

By the time many of us retire, those numbers will likely be MUCH higher.

The good news? You have more control than you think. 💡

Many people don’t realize they can use retirement funds to invest in alternative assets like real estate-backed private lending through Self-Directed IRAs — creating passive income outside of the traditional Wall Street model.

That’s one reason we’re hosting a webinar:
🎥 “How the Financially Savvy are Using Self-Directed IRAs to Build Passive Income + Secure Their Financial Future”

We’ll walk through:
✅ How Self-Directed IRAs work
✅ Alternative ways investors are building passive income
✅ Why some people are diversifying beyond the stock market
✅ How retirement dollars can potentially work harder for you

If you’ve ever worried about market volatility or wondered if there’s another path to building long-term wealth, this will be worth your time.

Have you ever considered investing retirement funds outside the stock market? 👇

The best compliment an investor can give isn’t words—it’s investing again. 🙌 It was actually one of our investor's 3rd time sending funds ($100,000) to Mach Speed Lending.

That kind of repeat investment is something we never take lightly. In a world with endless places to park capital, continued trust is one of the greatest compliments we can receive.

We’re incredibly grateful for partners who believe in our vision, our team, and the work we’re doing to help fund real estate projects while creating passive income opportunities for investors.

Most people think real estate investing means dealing with tenants, contractors, or late-night phone calls…

But private lending can be a very different experience:
✔️ Passive income
✔️ Real estate-backed investments
✔️ Shorter-term opportunities
✔️ No toilets. No tenants. No headaches. 😄

For many of our investors, the goal isn’t just more money. 💰
It’s more freedom, flexibility, and time with the people they love.

Success looks different after you become a mom.

It’s the most beautiful job in the world—and without a doubt, one of the hardest. 💙

With Mother’s Day right around the corner, I’ve been thinking about all the incredible moms out there…

➡️ The ones juggling careers, kids, marriages, friendships, and everything in between.
➡️ The ones who show up tired but still give their best.
➡️ The ones who carry so much—often quietly—and love so deeply.

There’s no “off” switch. No perfect balance. 👎
Just a whole lot of grace, growth, and figuring it out as we go. 🙏

As a mom, one of my favorite parts is the little moments—
The unexpected hugs, the laughter, the conversations that remind me what really matters.

And also… the perspective shift.
Motherhood has a way of clarifying what’s truly important in life—how we spend our time, who we show up for, and the legacy we’re building every day.

To all the moms: you are seen, appreciated, and doing more than you know. 💐

And to the dads out there—watching the way you love, support, and appreciate the mother of your children matters more than you realize.

👇 I’d love to hear from you:

If you’re a mom, what’s your favorite part of being one?
If you’re a dad, what do you admire most about the mom to your kids?
