Hi, I’m Ivanna Baron. Welcome! I’m a Christ-follower, wife, and mom of two. I’m also an Air Force veteran, management analyst, and writer. I have a master’s degree in management and a bachelor’s degree in social psychology. In addition to writing, I enjoy spending time with my family, caring for my houseplants, watching a good movie or TV series, and exercising.

I understand how life’s challenges can affect a person’s mental and emotional well-being because I’ve experienced that firsthand. After facing a series of difficult circumstances, I experienced a season where I struggled with anxiety. It was one of the darkest times in my life. Through God’s grace and a commitment to healing, I found the tools I needed to manage and overcome anxiety. Now, I share my story and experiences to help and encourage others. Additionally, I share content that encourages you to persevere through life’s challenges, find joy in the everyday, and trust God through it all. Find my latest work below. Thank you for visiting. I hope you find something helpful and encouraging here.
