How a shy, quiet introvert girl from Missouri became a 9-time bestselling author, award winning podcast host and global speaker...
It all started on the school bus.
I was just 12 when the bullying began, one girl, one bus ride, and a spiral into deep sadness and self-doubt. I struggled with how I looked, how I felt, and found myself battling low self-esteem. But even in that dark place, I found light through prayer and a growing relationship with God. That intimate connection with my faith became my anchor and my breakthrough.
Fast forward to 2001, I was a college student leading a faith-based campus ministry, on fire for purpose and passionate about studying the Word. That fire turned into a mission. In 2008, I launched Sisters of Hope, a nonprofit to empower young girls dealing with the same low self-worth I once did. That work expanded into serving women in the community, and I became a dedicated student of personal growth and mental wellness.
By 2015, I wrote my first book, started blogging, and hit the stage as a motivational speaker. The next year? I went viral. Millions of views later, I built a thriving Facebook community of 140K+, wrote 8 more books, sold over 120K copies, and became a bestselling author and podcast host.
Today, I’m grateful to inspire and impact hundreds of thousands around the globe all while being a proud wife of 21+ years to my amazing husband and #1 supporter, Patrick Howard, and mama to two incredible college kids.
I haven’t just helped others transform their lives I’ve transformed mine: mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically. And in my 9th book, The Love Habit, I share the daily self-care practices that helped me create a happier life and healthier relationships from the inside out.
