Hello beloved sister.

Thanks for choosing to lean in and listen. Over the last 20 years, God has invited me to partner with Him in caring for and building up His daughters. I’ve led numerous bible studies, enjoyed discipling women as individuals or in small groups, and mentored young leaders.  I’ve wept alongside women experiencing excruciating loss and prayed with women clinging to their faith after “church hurt” or “church abuse.”  I’ve balanced a life of ministry while working as a pediatric physical therapist at a local children’s hospital and raising two daughters.

For many years, I was a pastor’s wife. Internally, I resisted that title. I didn’t match the stereotype that went with it. I was strong, outspoken and opinionated. I sensed that God wanted my gifts for His kingdom, in addition to my husbands. I uncovered a growing passion to see women rise up in leadership within the church.  My journey with God shifted as I deconstructed my church experiences while holding tightly to the Jesus I loved. I learned that a life of connection to Jesus produced abundant joy and genuine transformation. I gained the courage to embrace my truest identity as the Beloved. I reconstructed a life that more fully reflects life in His Kingdom.

When I look around me, I see women who are longing for an authentic faith, wrestling against the tide of culture, are worn out, even sometimes lonely and looking for other like-minded women. I hope to be a wise guide who can help her on the journey of building again. Reshaping the way she sees herself and what she believes about how God sees her. Restoring what has been lost, broken, or altered. Reforming how she spends her time, energy and resources.
