About Me


 Hi, I'm Amber

Welcome to The Modern Sage Life, a resource dedicated to helping you live your best life by providing friendly life advice, personal development tips, life hacks, and more.




About Me

Growing up, I was a pretty serious little kid. 

I was always wondering “why?” and asking what my mom called “big black box” questions like...

  • What is my purpose in life? 
  • What is happiness? 
  • How do I discover my passions? 

Questions no one seemed to be able to help me answer...


As I got older, these questions became more and more important and I started looking for some helpful advice. 

I read my Bible and went to church. 

I attended college and studied abroad. 

I got into personal development and became something of a natural health junkie.


Having graduated during the turmoil of the pandemic without securing a steady job, and recovering from the effects of a family tragedy, I can’t say this is what I envisioned for my 20s. 

But this is just the beginning and I hope you’ll join me on my adventure on this amazing thing called life!



Maybe you’re looking for some friendly advice, or encouragement, or ways to live more abundantly.  Whatever the reasons that brought you to my blog, I hope you will take away something helpful from my experiences (and even my mistakes).


What to Expect

With all that being said, I’m a jetsetter, aspiring writer, and linguist who also loves tea. So don’t be surprised when those posts pop up.

Mindset Matters

Image
And we're back! For the past few months (all of this year, actually, but especially the last few months) this reoccurring concept of "mindset" keeps popping up. And I never thought about it much before. I heard the term "mindset" thrown around like confetti and only gave it one ear. But that's partially due to not understanding what "mindset" actually encompasses and how it actually shows up and effects my everyday life. And you probably know what "mindset" is. You probably even think you know your own mindset, but I hope you keep reading a little bit more so that you can not only remind yourself to be conscious of your mindset but understand how important it is to your life and life direction. The term mindset gets tossed around, usually with one or two options: positive or negative. But understanding your mindset isn't just about thinking positively; it's about how you tackle life's rollercoaster, dodge curveballs, and embra...

The Positive Power of Affirmations

  I am... worthy. I am... resilient. I am... positive. I am... successful. Recognize them?^ All of these "I am" statements are something called positive affirmations, which if you aren't already using them, you're in for a treat! So whether you've been  feeling a little bit down lately or are struggling with self-doubt and negative thoughts, positive affirmations are just the thing to help you out of the slump. I've been using affirmations is a variety of ways in my meditations, word/wall arts, and even phone backgrounds. Right now, my favorite affirmation is: Every day, in every way, I am getting/becoming ______ and ______ (even if it's just one cell at a time). Every day in every way I am becoming _ Positive affirmations are short, powerful statements that help you overcome negative thoughts and emotions.  They can increase self-confidence, reduce stress and anxiety, and improve your overall well-being.  In this post, we're taking a closer look at po...

So What's Your Plan?

Image
  August 16, 2022 As life so often does, it gave me this week’s post topic. My one sister has been working at her job since this spring, through summer, mostly to gain experience. This past weekend, she announced that she was going to quit the job for a number of different reasons. Not a surprise, but the immediate response to that announcement was “Okay, then what’s your plan?” What's Your Plan? Isn’t that a question that we’re asked all the time? I don’t know about you, but for me, ever since high school it seemed like everyone and their mother would ask me “what’s your plan?” Which was terrible because I didn’t have one. As much as I disliked the question, I’ve asked plenty of people the same thing because it’s how we express interest in other people’s lives and situations. Especially in transitional phases of life like going off to and graduating from college. But that one question supports the idea for the need to have a plan. Everyone’s asking for the plan, the next steps, my...
