About Us

---

The dual picture speaks a thousand words. Both are images of me. One side shows my dark side (my past), and the other side represents the light I found when I surrendered my life to Christ. Growing up in the foster care system created an extremely curious and sheltered young woman. A lot of the dark stories you hear about the system are true and I’ve been through a lot of these statistics. Physical/mental abuse, rape, being bullied, and neglect starting around age 4.

When I turned 18, I felt free, as if I had a new lease on life! I entered adulthood headfirst by drinking, smoking weed, partying and of course dating. I never really had those “sit down” talks about dating, so I often dated the wrong guys like drug dealers, celebrities, strippers, and even some average Joe’s. The one thing all these men had in common was they were habitual liars, cheaters and guys that didn’t take me seriously. Not to bash them at all because they only treated me based upon what I allowed. 

I desired to one day be a treasured wife and mother, but my standards were set too low, and I took what I thought I could get. The only guy that took something from me, was the boyfriend that set me up (which I discuss in my book and on my podcast show). He invited me to a party and asked me to bring my friend for his cousin for a double date. I never would have thought that all three of them would drug me and set me up to be raped by the second guy. To make matters worse, the attack left me with HPV at the tender age of 18. Talk about a dark place.

When many of us experience trauma, we have acomfort or back-up we go to. For some people it’s food, sex, drugs, etc. My relief was more drinking and smoking. I masked my pain with these things.By God’s grace, it was in one of these moments that I slowed down enough to hear from God and eventually started getting my life on track. The right track. 

After struggling through depression, I met a guy that knew my story and went with me to my doctor’s visit as moral support. He understood the severity of the cancerous cells, but he continued to support me and soon after asked for my hand in marriage! How exciting right? We have been together now for almost two decades with 8 beautiful children and you know what else? I no longer have HPV! Now I live the beautiful life of being a mother and wife I’ve always longed for. Now we get to give our childrenthe childhood I would have had if I were not in foster care. God has truly blessed us and I’m enjoying every moment of it. 

Therefore relationship coaching is extremely important. The biggest relationship you should have is with yourself first, with Christ and then with others.Greg and I have received so many questions and comments from people about relationships that we wrote our book and created this site to support you. 

It took some serious work for us to secure our marriage and we’re passionate about assisting others to build their relationships. It won’t be easy,but it is worth it. We have dealt with homelessness, alcoholism, and spiritual warfare to name a few. We had great help along the way from our church counselors (Minister and Mrs. Hill), Marriage Boot Camp, marriage books by Tony Evans and others.We are firm believers that when you overcome a trial, it is your duty to turn around and help someone else cross over that same bridge. 

Therefore, it would be an honor to serve you. Our main job involves presenting our clients with both preventative care and that of relationship maintenance services. Greg and I have gonethrough the horrors of relationships, so you won’t have to experience those same hardships. 

Our motto: “Our lessons, your blessings!”
