How did you identify your purpose?
I first identified my calling when I figured out I was different from everyone else. I never fit. So, I knew there was something God was doing.
What inspired you to pursue your purpose?
As a young child and even in high school, God continued to make me different. It was then I knew God had more purpose for me and I determined to pursue it.
What challenges have you experienced throughout the pursuit of your purpose?
There have been so many different challenges. I’ve lost loved ones, found enemies, and struggle with my own identity. I had to learn to not be a people pleaser. Yet, God continually kept me through it all.
What is the name of your book?
My book is titled, “Sandpapered”
What inspired you to write your book?
My inspiration was given through God and my life experiences. I wanted to let other women know that, despite how difficult life may be and whatever they may be currently facing, God is a deliverer.
What motivates you to become the person you are today?
I want to come to the fullness of what God has called me to be, to be a vessel in the Hands of God to push people into God’s given purpose. My family is also my motivation. They constantly pray and push me to be the best version of myself, and all that God created me to be.
