About Heather

Heather is a grateful believer in Jesus Christ who believes passionately in helping women find their identity and self-worth in the Lord. After years of people-pleasing and unhealthy relationships, Heather discovered a pathway to a whole and healed life with Jesus. Now, she shares about God’s sweet redemption and freedom of her brokenness through writing, speaking, and worship. Heather also loves making gratitude lists, spending Saturday mornings at home with French-pressed coffee, and hiking in the mountains of Roanoke, Virginia where she and her family live.
