After walking away from a calling on my life that felt too burdensome and weighty, I worked my way through single motherhood while earning my Bachelor’s Degree in Communications and Marketing and somehow managed to receive an award for the top twenty-five at the National Collegiate Sales Competition in GA. In corporate sales, I was the only single mom on a team of 50 at a Fortune 500 company where I ranked as the top fifteen reps in the region (which consisted of seven states). My drive and ambition didn’t slow there and by the grace of God, I married my amazing husband, blended a small family, fought hard to have three more babies in my late 30s, started a blog and support group for single moms, became a certified financial coach and coached women in finances, and maintained a four-year internship working for a best selling Christian author and speaker where I learned how to launch a bunch of things.

While I do not find any of this to be near as noteworthy as the sanctifying work God has done in my life during all these moments and within the four walls of my home, I understand it demonstrates credibility, and heck, He kinda used it all to birth this vision + wisdom I’m stepping into.
