Hey there sunshine,
so glad youre here
My purpose and perspective is rooted in Genesis 50:20, “You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good…” and so I boldly share my truth through a lens of empathy and grace without compromising honesty for the sake of comfort. I believe in the value of resilience, healing, hope and hold the unflinching belief that grief and gratitude can coexist.
When I'm not writing or speaking you'll likely find me immersed in nature or just enjoying the simple blessings of my life as a wife and mama.
My new book, every moment before this one, is available now
