As I near the one-year mark of publishing Outside God’s Umbrella, I want to express my sincere gratitude for the support so many of you have shown. Your messages, shares, and encouragement have helped this book reach people who needed its message of hope and resilience.

As we head into the holiday season, Outside God’s Umbrella can be a meaningful gift for anyone navigating challenge, transition, or personal growth.

In 2026, I’m expanding my speaking opportunities and podcast appearances. If you’re connected to conferences, leadership events, faith-based groups, or podcast hosts looking for real-life stories of resilience, redemption, and personal transformation—I’d be grateful for an introduction.

Thank you again for being part of this journey.
