LESLIE MARIE SIMPSON

We've brought in an insanely exciting lineup of women that have clarity in their purpose, and a passion for helping other women discover theirs.

They've each walked through the trenches, clung to Jesus through them, and have turned their messes into their messages, and their pain into their purpose.

Whatever stage of life you find yourself in, you're going to see pieces of yourself in their stories.  And we pray that the keys they have found along the way will help you unlock what is holding you back.

Angie SMith

Angie Smith is Todd’s wife, Ellie, Abby, Kate, Audrey, and Charlotte’s mommy, and a host of other things to many other people she loves. Todd is the lead singer of the Christian group, Selah, and many people met Angie when they joined the Smith's journey a few years ago. While pregnant with their fourth daughter, Audrey, they received news that she would not survive and Angie began blogging as a means of communication with friends and family who wanted to be updated as they walked those difficult days.

Angie’s blog, Bring the Rain, (www.angiesmithonline.com) started as simply that - a way to share her heart honestly and to have the gift of listening to those who had experienced similar loss, but truthfully, not all that much has changed along the way. Angie now writes books and Bible studies and teaches around the country, but the heart of all of those ministries is the same as it was when her fingers typed the very first words on her blog: Angie greatest passion is to make the Bible feel accessible and relevant, and to share her own ups and downs along the way to encourage others in their faith. 

Angie holds a Master’s Degree in Developmental Psychology from Vanderbilt University and is a best-selling author of multiple adult and children’s books. She and Todd (and their house full of daughters) live in Nashville, TN, but hopes her path crosses yours somewhere out in the great big world.

Retha nichole

I’m a southern girl at heart. I spent the majority of my life in Texas--I was born in Houston and attended the University of Texas at Austin. After college, I got to see the world as a flight attendant with American Airlines. I loved working with people and discovering new places, but deep down, I knew I needed to plant some roots. 

I moved to Atlanta, GA to be closer to my parents. There, I ventured into the real estate world, where I became one of the top-producing agents with Harry Norman Realtors. Now, three boys and a bakery later, I make my home in Alabama.

Emily thomas


Emily is a teacher turned RN turned stay at home mom/artist. It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to her either. She’s lived on several continents but her favorite place on earth is in her kitchen cooking with her husband. She writes on her blog and others in an effort to make much of God and all He has done. These days, however, most of her creative energy goes toward making pretty things in her studio (which to the untrained eye looks an awful lot like a laundry room). She takes great joy in creating meaningful art for herself and custom creations for her customers.
