Influences and inspiration

I’ve been deeply influenced by women like Sarah Jakes Roberts and Priscilla Shirer, both of whom have shaped the way I lead, teach, and mentor. Sarah Jakes Roberts showed me the power of owning your story without shame. Her transparency, boldness, and ability to speak to the hearts of women who often feel unseen gave me the courage to stand in my truth and empower others to do the same. I resonate with how she turns brokenness into breakthrough, and that’s exactly what I strive to do through The EmpowerHER Mentor. Priscilla Shirer’s deep commitment to the Word, spiritual discipline, and powerful teaching gift inspires me to go beyond surface-level encouragement and bring truth that truly transforms. She reminds me that we don’t just need motivation, we need revelation. Together, their ministries have affirmed my calling: to show up healed, whole, and honest, and to help women do the same as they shift into who God created them to be.
