the least of these

I love my work. For the past eight years, I have had the privilege of being part of Karyn Purvis’s army of TBRI® Practitioners. It has been such an honor to walk alongside so many families and to witness the beauty and successes as they continue to attach and truly become a family unit. IContinue reading “The Least of These”

The Wall

For many years, I have been wrestling with the Holy Spirit about the belief that the church is not significant. Throughout those years, I walked outside the confines of the church building, working with His people. I came to understand that the Acts Church is who my community is meant to be. I struggled inContinue reading “The Wall”

“The least of these…”

To say that I am in awe of who God is would be an understatement—only God truly knows. Recently, I met with a client who handed me a stack of gift cards and said to use them wherever they were needed. What’s most beautiful is that just last week, a different client—a single mother ofContinue reading ““The least of these…””

Making Sense of Your Worth

There’s a moment in time when you never know the impact you have on another person’s life. After eight sessions with this beautiful teenager, our time is finished. It’s been such a journey to watch a human being become self‑empowered through teaching, engaging, self‑worth, and identity. So grateful and honored for every seed planted 🤎Continue reading “Making Sense of Your Worth”

Identity and Self-Worth

There are so many fulfilling things about my life—so many things I am deeply grateful for. I very much enjoy my work. As I finish up an identity and self-worth course with a teen called Making Sense of Your Worth, I love seeing the transformation. This sweet girl has endured so much—things most will neverContinue reading “Identity and Self-Worth”

The least of these…

The answer comes when you can look outside yourself. Loving people where there are at is loving unconditional without expectations. ““Then they too will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or without clothes, or sick, or in prison, and not help you? ’ “Then he will answer them, ‘TrulyContinue reading “The least of these…”

Refiners Fire

2025 was a very significant year for me—I turned 50, a half century. When I look back on my first 50 years of life, I see countless experiences of heartache and joy. Seasons ended, and new seasons began. I can see the beauty in my life and in who I have become. As I reflectContinue reading “Refiners Fire”

A Portrait of a Mother – Maria

A portrait of a mother—this is a new collection I am beginning in the art world. Traditionally, only a chosen few are deemed significant enough by worldly standards to have their portraits painted—those who breathe history. But who decides their worth? This collection tells a different story: the story of mothers. I spend much ofContinue reading “A Portrait of a Mother – Maria”

Vision of the heavenlies

This was a moment in time when the Heavenlies broke through, and I saw the heart of God. It speaks to the painful and holy tension of love: that when we love deeply, we want to protect, intervene, and shield those we care about from harm. Yet there are moments when love must release itsContinue reading “Vision of the heavenlies”
