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).
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
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!”
One-on-one coaching happens via phone or video unless you live in the Lancaster, PA area. Our sessions will last 40 minutes and will always begin and end in prayer. Every call is different as we move through YOUR goals. Together we will work towards the change you desire. Below you will see various package options to fit your personal and financial needs.
-2 Coaching Sessions + a free 25-minute introductory session – $85
or 4 Coaching Sessions + a free 25-minute introductory session – $150
You’ll receive 40-minute coaching sessions along with session notes in addition to your free introductory session. You will have access to all the resources and tools available in the two coaching sessions such as the Life Balance Survey, Values Inventory, Personal Identity Worksheet, and more.
