This shop was born out of loss, but God is still in it.
Hi, I’m the person behind LTPHopeShop. I’m an author, podcast host, and widow.
I started making these journals and resources after losing my husband, Tim. In that loss I found words I did not know I had, and I began writing them down in the middle of sleepless nights. Those pages eventually became my memoir, When Goodbye Comes Too Early, and everything in this shop grew from the same place.
I make things for the season of grief nobody prepares you for. The quiet after everyone goes home. The guilt that shows up right behind a moment of joy. The days when just breathing feels like enough. Every journal here is built to sit with you in that, gently, with room for your own words and scripture to hold you steady.
Outside of writing, I have spent my career as a federal auditor, which means I am detail obsessed in the best way. I love a clean, well organized house. That was very true before Tim passed, and I am slowly finding my way back to it. These days you will more likely find me with a podcast playing in the background, music on while I work, or showing up wherever my family needs a hand.

Thank you for being here. Whatever brought you to this shop, I hope you find something that helps you breathe a little easier.
Hope after loss, one breath at a time.
