Contributing authors from all projects

A little about me, my passion, and my why…

My journey as an author began in 2016 when my business coach at the time, Cheryl Holland, invited me to contribute to an anthology. I immediately fell in love with writing and discovered the power of sharing pieces of my story, one book at a time.

Since then, I have contributed to 20 anthologies led by other visionaries. Each experience taught me something valuable about writing, publishing, collaboration, and leadership. And trust me when I say, no two projects were ever the same. Not even close!

Along the way, I met countless women who shared a common desire: they wanted to tell their stories, but for one reason or another, they had not found a project that felt aligned. I began to feel called to create something of my own. After much prayer, meditation, and reflection, I said yes to that calling.

 

Since 2022, I have had the honor of serving as the visionary behind five anthologies. Four became bestsellers and earned recognition as top new releases. And in case you are wondering about the fifth, we decided not to pursue bestseller status for that project.

Some of the women who joined these projects were already published authors, while many became first-time authors under my guidance, an honor I will never take lightly.
 

This page was created to continue shining a light on these extraordinary women. They are business owners, leaders, mothers, sisters, daughters, friends, and legacy builders, but most importantly, they are women with powerful stories, meaningful work, and something valuable to offer the world.

I invite you to click on their photos, and connect with them through their websites or social media platforms.
 

If you feel called to share your story and would like to join this growing movement, I would love to hear from you. I am currently welcoming women for my next anthology project.
