About Us
Are you a woman who struggles with fear and longs to live with confidence in God’s purpose for you? Then you’re in the right place! I hope to offer encouragement and support for overwhelmed moms, hurting wives and fellow fear fighters.
Trade Fear for Faith!
Facing Fear
I’ve discovered freedom from the bondage of fear in my life. Although I will always struggle with fear, it doesn’t have a hold on me anymore. You will find resources here to help conquer fear and live in the freedom Christ offers. Below are some fears I battle and write about. Let’s fight fear together! Find facing fear posts here.
- Performance Anxiety (lack of confidence)
- Social Anxiety
- Travel Anxiety
- Other Specific Phobias

I’ve had the honor of being on book launch teams for Ann Voskamp, Tim Tebow, Kelly Balarie, Holley Gerth, Jennifer Dukes Lee, Shiela Walsh, Shawna Letellier, Maria Furlough, and Gary Morland.
