Since I started traveling and speaking to girls and women about their worth when I was 17, I’ve seen and heard just about anything you can imagine. From helping over 1,000 sex trafficking victims find hope and healing as the co-founder of a nonprofit… To watching hundreds of ladies just like you grow in their relationship with Jesus, overcome decades of disappointment, and step into their God-given purpose with confidence… I know how to guide ladies through the transformation into a life they love.

Even with all that experience, a few years ago I found myself in a place where I had completely closed myself in. Between the pressure of running an organization, betrayal of close relationships, a miscarriage, then almost losing my baby to sickness twice before he was even 1, and a complete step-of-faith move to a new state… I found myself reeling under the weight of life. 

Then one day I went to the chiropractor and as she was sitting me up after my adjustment, she said “Hmm… your shoulders are hunched over and closed in, almost like you’re protecting your heart…” Instantly, I began to cry because I knew that’s exactly what I’d succumbed to.

A few days later I walked into church, looking for an excuse to get to the restroom and hide in a stall – which was NOT like the old me one bit – I watched my precious daughter Magnolia run ahead, squealing as she approached her little friends to embrace. I saw the joy and freedom in her face and watched with awe as she bounced around completely unhindered. That was ME before life hit!!

Then the Lord spoke to my heart and said, “Season, that’s how I designed you to be even now… completely open, unhindered, and blooming like Magnolia.”

I realized life had come at me like a hurricane and tossed me around. The pains and disappointments made me so guarded that I was no longer blooming. So the Lord led me back to my roots and guided me through a beautiful journey of healing, restoration, and hope… Teaching  me frameworks that produced hope for my future, hope for the dreams I allowed to go dormant, and hope that now affords me the ability to love the life I’m living, no matter what comes at me.

Then not too long ago I was chatting with some girlfriends about things they were facing and the Holy Spirit dropped this thought in my heart… “Your story and the frameworks you learned weren’t just about you… There are so many ladies who are closed in just like you were – and it’s time for them to bloom again too.”
