About me

Hello, friends! I’m passionate about living boldly, fearlessly and purposefully! But I am most passionate about Jesus and His truth. I get excited about sharing how His love transforms our lives, redeems our past and gives us hope for tomorrow.

About Me:

I’m a lover of reading, traditions, family, feasting, His Word, nature, friends, dancing, and all things creative. Most importantly I have the honor of being called mom by 3 precious boys. I’m married to an amazing man who was my first boyfriend and first kiss. We served in the mission field in South America for close to a decade from 2008-2017 working with international youth, street kids, missionary care, and girls rescued from abuse, exploitation, and trafficking.

I’m a writer, speaker, Family Life Coach, and Bible teacher. And as of recently an author! I had the honor of publishing a book! It’s a Bible study for women. You can find it HERE.

I have been in ministry for more than 20 years sharing God’s truth and hope by mentoring, teaching, leading workshops and speaking at conferences and retreats for women from all over the world.

I graduated from Columbia International University with a Masters’s in Christian Education with a focus in Counseling. I am a certified Life Coach through the Association of Christian Counselors program. This Fall I will be adding to my certification a Mental Health Coach component via the American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC).

My heart’s desire is to help moms find hope in God’s truth and to encourage women to use the influence God has given them to impact this generation and make an eternal difference right where they are–even in the mundane.
I truly believe that our ordinary day-to-day life matters more than we can imagine and I want women to believe it in their hearts so they can use their influence right where God has them.
I love seeing how God has taken my small offerings and has multiplied them for His glory.

We must let go of the life we have planned so we can embrace the life God has given us.

You Don’t Have to Do it Alone!

Let me walk alongside you as you learn to tap into the truth to live fearlessly, passionately, and with purpose on this journey of motherhood and womanhood!

Below are 2 different ways to work with me:

Life Coaching

You can go to my Life Coaching page HERE for more information.

Depending on what you want to focus on during our coaching sessions, you will:

  • Gain clarity on your current life and future goals
  • Create a pathway for possibility and balance
  • Work with your commitments and values, not against them
  • Stop beating ourselves up and start celebrating who we are in Him
  • Define & create strategies to do the things you’ve always wanted but haven’t
  • Create powerful action plans to meet your goals
  • Stop the monotony and start living motherhood on purpose
  • Stop making excuses for the ways things are and start taking responsibility and action
  • Understand that you are seen, heard, and valued-Identity in Christ
  • Communicate honestly and fearlessly from the heart as you set boundaries so you can live your best “YES!”

Speaking & Teaching

I am also available for speaking engagements for your mom groups, bible study, book club, conference, workshop, retreat or Sunday school class. Here are some of my favorite speaking topics but I’m happy to adapt my talk to your theme or topic. Some of the topics below can be presented in Spanish.

I ask that the Lord would guide me as I move forward with this passion to encourage mothers. For now, this is where I know my passions, experiences, and skill set are strong and how I feel like I can best walk with you.

My prayer is that He will establish the work of my hands. (Psalms 90:17)
