The idea for GURLfriends came in the midst of the emotional aftermath of a failed marriage. God gave me the inspiration to help other women who may find themselves wading knee-deep in betrayal, rejection, pain, abuse, loneliness and trauma. Prior to my split, I had not worked. After the split, I was the sole provider. It was an overwhelming task. I earned my associates degree in psychology. All five of my children are now grown, with kids of their own. In sharing my story, I hope to become a beacon of light for you, and other women like you, who so desperately need it when all they see is darkness. I hope to share resources, tips and strategies with you that helped me get through one of the darkest, toughest times of my life, and come out flourishing on the other side. I hope to inspire you to rise to whatever challenge you’re facing, knowing that you will triumph if you keep going and trust God. GURLfriends. God Understands Relationship Letdowns.
