Chapter 1: What personal tragedies influenced the guest's life?
My dad committed suicide. My son ended up getting cancer at 17 years old. And my faith has grown because I feel like that God just used those bad situations to turn them around for good and to good things. And so I try to do that as well. I try to turn everything bad that happens in my life around to something good and positive.
it takes a lot of grit or I would say self-awareness to have that resilience. Where does that energy come from?
God. He has changed my life.
Chapter 2: How has faith shaped the guest's resilience?
Starting at 13 years old, my life changed at a Christian camp that I went to. And ever since, I've just tried to live my life for Him, do what He would have me do, and make an impact on others, be His hands and feet, love on people, be kind to people, and just...

Chapter 3: What impact does the guest aim to have on others?
I didn't want to cry, but I knew I would because I've been through some things that made me cry. For sure. But it was great. And you guys are so professional. And like, I just love that about you guys. I was not expecting this seems like the real deal.
Oh, gosh. Well, I'm very prideful of that. Laura and I, we've built quite an empire here the last couple of months, and we've quickly grown to Jason, Kofi, and Anton as well. So we're very pragmatic of what we've achieved here, which is why I'm sitting on the lips. What are we going to learn about you in your episode?
You talked about faith and just unleashing you when it talks about your North Star, per se. What are we going to learn about you?
I think you're going to learn that... anybody can do anything because I'm really nobody. I started this journey at 21 years old and I feel like that that's a kid. Like I was a kid and I started directing my first daycare And then some things happened. My dad committed suicide. My son ended up getting cancer at 17 years old. And I've just, my faith has grown because
I feel like that God just used those bad situations to turn them around for good into good things. And so I try to do that as well. I try to turn everything bad that happens in my life around to something good and positive. And I learn from it. And then I'm a glass half full type of person. I always try to see the positive.
And then because my son is now cancer free, everything bad that happens, I'm just always like, at least we're alive. You know, my son's alive. My children are alive. And me and my husband are alive. And so nothing is... you know, that bad, I live my life like that. Like, oh, it's not that bad. It'll, you know, it's okay.
Where does that, where does that come from? It takes a lot of grit or I would say self-awareness to have that resilience. Where does that energy come from?
God, He has changed my life. Starting at 13 years old, my life changed at a Christian camp that I went to. And ever since, I've just tried to live my life for Him, do what He would have me do, and make an impact on others, be His hands and feet, love on people, be kind to people, and just... try to do His work here on earth. And so I do have a lot of faith.
I truly believe that He healed my son from cancer. He had an incurable cancer that, I mean, that's what incurable means, that is not going to go away. And he's 24 now, and he is great. He's in great health. And so my faith is strong. And so I try to pour that out on others. And I counsel kids. I'm definitely not a guidance counselor, but I do.

Chapter 4: How does the guest's experience inform their work with youth?
He has autism. And so because my eyes were tearing up, because a child was saying this to me, he thought that he was bringing up the hurt from my dad's suicide. So he said, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to make you upset. I didn't mean to make you cry. I'm so sorry. And I said, no, no, please always come to me. And then we prayed together.
I, of course, called his mom because, you know, I have to do that if any child ever says that. But I really feel like I helped him and that he now has a purpose. And I told him, I said, you are he's new. So I said, you are going to just be awesome here at Greater Vision Academy. And you are going to do great things. And we are going to love on you.
And we're going to be here for you every step of the way.
Wow. Talk about the evolution of, I guess, the frequency of the energy out there. Sometimes my favorite YouTubers are the folks that have these personal ministries. They're alone in their bedroom or living room and they're speaking gospel. Other churches have youth groups where it's more of a band and no one's really sitting. It's more of a concert. Talk about how...
how churches have really evolved and they've morphed into academies, tribes, retreats, off sites. Talk about the evolution of ministries.
Yeah. I'm not much of anything. Just a normal woman. At least you're a ginger.
That's good.
He got that going for him. Anyway, so I do feel like that the school is also a church. It's a ministry. That's all I see right here. Yeah. Yeah. And we don't do it for the money. Money's nice.
Do you do it for the tax breaks?
