Being a “woman on a mission” is as intrinsic as breathing for me. It started with guiding individuals into Christian spiritual growth and led to community transformation. I was privileged to do this work in countries recovering from dictatorships. I became fluent enough in language and customs to help local talented world changers grow into their calling.
From meeting refugees at the border and learning their stories to equipping leaders of Churches and non-profits, I focused on empowering the unique energy and talents of the people I mentored. Capacity building was my focus. As individuals’ spiritual grounding grew, so did their strength, clarity, responsibility, and influence. Ultimately I had the privilege of seeing a generation of community leaders emerge before I returned to the US to care for aging parents.
In many ways, we boot-strapped spiritual growth efforts and transformational enterprises in faith and prayer. Still, I was blessed with the coaching and support of those who invested in me to expand my potential. We also saw resources flow when good things happened.
Around 2010, I shifted my focus from societies that needed transformation to building the capacity of people who bring transformation. I set out to harness the capacities that fuel fortune 500 companies for the non-profit realm. From ICF Professional Coaching Certification to top tools (like the Harrison Assessment) to ministerial oversight, I aimed to bring top talent to people who sacrificially serve their communities. Being a “woman on a mission” in male-dominated systems means I’ve endured those specific challenges as well.
In 2024 I launched the Resilience Rehab Workshop, a coaching program aimed at serving people doing sacrificial work serving massive needs. This workshop educates and provides tools to help individuals become internally strong and resilient in order to meet the needs of their mission.
