My Story

My Story

I’ve been the woman who keeps going for as long as I can remember.

Responsibility shaped me early. Being capable, dependable, and useful became how I learned to measure my value. Those beliefs followed me into adulthood, and into ministry, where I spent years as a coach, counselor, speaker, pastor’s wife, and pastor, walking alongside faithful, exhausted women.

From the outside, my life looked full and meaningful.
Inside, I was running on empty.

I was caring for a newborn, grieving the loss of my mother, parenting two children with special needs, and counseling others through their own life challenges. All at once. Every role felt important. God-given. Necessary.

Until I reached a breaking point.

I had nothing left to give, but too many people depended on me to stop.

What I eventually had to face was this: I wasn’t just burned out. I had learned to define my worth by what I did, how much I carried, and how needed I was. And no amount of effort could fix that.

The real work wasn’t doing less.
It was learning to believe, deeply, that my value was secure because I was God’s.

As I began making decisions from that truth instead of from obligation, things started to shift. I released responsibilities that were never mine alone. Peace returned. Clarity followed. Confidence grew, rooted in alignment and trust rather than performance.

That foundation was tested years later during a cancer diagnosis. It was one of the hardest seasons of my life, yet I walked through it grounded, peaceful, and deeply reliant on God. That season confirmed what I already knew: transformation is possible, even when life is hard.

Today, this lived experience shapes how I coach.

My work is grounded in Scripture and built on biblical truth. Faith isn’t an add-on. It’s the foundation.

I help Christian women in caring professions untangle worth from performance, and go to the root beliefs driving their exhaustion. Not so they can do less, but so they can live from who God says they are. Fully, freely, and abundantly so they can partake in Christ’s promise of abundant life. “I have come that they may have life, and have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10b, NKJV).

I share my story because I understand this struggle personally.
I know what it’s like to be burned out by a life you once prayed for.

And I know there is a way back.

Here’s What I Believe

  • I believe clarity creates calm, and most women already have the answers they’re looking for; they just need space, support, and the right questions to uncover them.

  • I’m drawn to conversations that help women slow down, reflect, and reconnect with what truly matters, especially when life feels full and demanding.

  • I value depth, honesty, and growth, and I believe meaningful change happens when faith and real life are allowed to meet without pressure.

And on a more personal note:

  • My happy place is the beach, and I feel most like myself when I’m outdoors.

  • I share life with two Rottweilers who keep me grounded, laughing, and moving. Usually whether I plan to or not.

If you’ve reached the point where you can’t keep going the same way you are

You don’t have to figure this out alone.

The Selah Circle is a free monthly gathering for Christian women in caring professions.

One hour, every month. Scripture, reflection, and community with women who understand exactly what you’re carrying.

It’s a place to pause, breathe, and remember that you are not alone in this.

If you’d ready for something even more personal, I’d love to have a one-on-one conversation with you.

A Clarity Call is a focused, no-pressure conversation where we get clear on what you’re carrying

and what your next step might look like.
