Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am a mother, wife, and most importantly a child of the one true King, Jesus Christ. I am an overcomer, a survivor, a fighter, a prayer warrior and loves the Lord Jesus Christ with all her heart. Born in Valparaiso, Indiana and was employed full time as a case worker with Family Social Services prior to becoming a full time Christian author and blogger. I have studied the Bible for over 10 years and thoroughly researched the mind/brain, thought patterns, prayer, spiritual warfare, and more for over 6 years. I am the author of the blog faithanchored.com and recently published my first book Change Your Focus Change Your Future: Positive and Negative Mindsets in September 2019.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Change Your Focus Change Your Future: Positive and Negative Mindsets
I struggled for many years with many issues I discuss in the book that resulted in a negative mindset. Once I found the “missing piece” I began to study and research to find a way to rewire my brain and live a more positive, peaceful, and purposeful life. I then knew I couldn’t keep the things I discovered to myself– I was being called by God to share His word and my story with others who are struggling.

Follow your heart and simply write. If you don’t know how to start pick somewhere start writing and you will be shocked how it just starts to flow.
