1 Safe person

“Every person needs at least one safe individual before the age of 18—someone who truly sees, hears, and values them, delights in who they are, and knows them deeply. When that happens, it builds a stronger foundation for mental health in adulthood. Without it, life can feel confusing and the struggle is real. Everyone needs that one safe person. Whose safe person will you be?”

The Encounter

“It was a quiet morning. The mist near the ocean was so thick. As I stood about 25 feet out on the sand on the ocean bed with the tide out, the reflection of the sun breaking through the mist was so beautiful and calming. For a brief moment, I felt as though a window to heaven had opened, and my Jesus was walking toward me.”

In The Community – To Live Ministry

At the heart of our community is a simple mission: meeting the immediate needs of families when life gets tough. Whether it’s providing gas cards, food cards, bedding, or sharing clothing that no longer fits, we believe in helping one family at a time.

Our goal is to ease the burden so families can focus their resources on what truly matters— stability. From hats, coats, and gloves to everyday essentials, we strive to ensure that no one goes without. Sometimes, the greatest gift is letting someone know: “I see you. You’re going to be okay.”

Biblical Life Coaching – To Live Ministry

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭3:16-17‬ ‭NIV‬‬ says,

“But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”

In one way or another, we are all looking for that freedom. Especially if the veil in our lives keeps us from being a healthy parent, spouse, or individuals without our past story holding us back.

It is the healing power of Jesus in our lives that will “take away the veil,” to deal with the things of our past and will bring us to that freedom that the verse above talks about.

It is an honor to walk alongside you as we both work to use God’s Word as a blueprint to start your journey to define your identity in Christ.

Anchored – To Live Ministry

Anchored is a course that lays the Biblical foundation for identity and self-worth defined by the Trinity: God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Anchored dives deeper into TBRI® Connecting Strategy-Mindfulness. From a faith-based perspective, it assists in answering the question, “What am I bringing to my relationships and my life?” Is my identity defined by the truth of my Christian faith or something else? Where is God to me? Who is God to me?

I love and am so honored my God has entrusted me to walk with His kids to help them see themselves how He sees them. 🙂

Making Sense of Your Worth – To Live Ministry

Everyone has a story. Making Sense of Your Worth is a beautiful space I am honored to walk with individuals to help them see what has been defining them

For most people, that story defines your life. It was never meant to be that way. Without the presence of a loving, consistent, attuned caregiver, we often don’t fully develop the capacity to be able to handle simple things in life…simply because life in itself can be overwhelming. It is in our stories that we struggle to move forward and become able to participate fully in our present life.

Self-Worth is the foundation of who you are as a human being. It plays a role in every decision you make and in every relationship you have. It helps sustain you through difficult times and helps you experience authentic joy and love!

It’s Okay by NightBirdie
To Live Ministry is in no way endorsed by NightBirdie, we just are moved by her story, no matter what you are going through… it’s OK.

Trust-Based Relational Intervention® -To Live Ministry

TBRI® is a trauma-informed, evidence-based, holistic approach that brings healing through meeting the needs within the family unit. TBRI® provides a systematic approach to restoring the foundation for mental health.

TBRI® came into my world because I am an adoptive mom. But what I didn’t know is that knowing and training in TBRI® would change everything in the trajectory of my life, but also in my relationship with my bio kids. I strived for so long to “do it right” when in reality, they only needed me to “be present and show up” for them. I am honored to walk with families and train, and my kids have given me a “redo” in the things I did not know as their mother.

To Live Ministry – A Place To Live

A New Movement Is Rising

In my work, I see a recurring theme: women raising children with special needs—often on their own. There’s no daycare for these kids, and even if such services existed, the funds simply aren’t there to make them accessible. Many of these women are working hard, doing the best they can, yet they don’t qualify for support. They’re surviving week to week, carrying an incredible weight alone.

But I see something new on the horizon—a movement that will change this story. A Place to Live will be more than housing; it will be a community. A space where single mothers raising children with special needs can come together, support one another, and walk this journey side by side. This isn’t free housing—it’s about creating an environment of collaboration and cooperation, where needs are met through shared strength and resources

His Fragrance

I’ve been wondering more about who You are—
the purity, the rawness of Your being,
my Creator, the One who loves me completely,
without conditions, without expectations.

Each day I find myself longing for more of You,
yearning to dwell in that sacred, intimate place.
I wonder—what does Your fragrance hold?
Is it one essence, or a symphony of all things?

Does it breathe like the warm, salty air
where the ocean kisses the horizon?
Or shimmer like the brilliant light of sunset?

Perhaps it carries the comfort of friendship,
like a steaming cup of coffee shared in quiet grace,
or the tender freshness of a seed breaking free,
bursting upward with life and promise.

Maybe it is the hush of a summer morning,
where dragonflies dance in golden light,
or the deep, resinous breath of pine forests.

Do You smell like the promise after spring rain,
or the open meadow untouched by trees,
where wildflowers bloom in secret harmony?

Perhaps You hold the hum of a summer day,
where bees wander from blossom to blossom,
or the smoky warmth of a campfire
beneath a starlit summer night.

Maybe You are the gentle embrace of a child,
or the artistry of all these scents combined—
a fragrance poured out like love itself,
woven from eternity, grace, and wonder.

Tell me my Lord—what does Your fragrance truly smell like?

Song of Songs 1:3 TPT

Your presence releases a fragrance so pleasing over and over poured out. For your lovely name is “Flowing Oil.” No wonder the brides-to-be adore you.

Finding Intimacy

This season is about finding intimacy with my Creator—learning to truly lean into every place and every space, and to be fully known and loved unconditionally by Him.

“My beloved one, both handsome and winsome, you are pleasing beyond words. Our resting place is anointed and flourishing, like a green forest meadow bathed in light. Rafters of cedar branches are over our heads and balconies of pleasant-smelling pines.”
‭‭Song of Songs‬ ‭1‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭TPT‬‬
