About Shara

Hello!

I'm happy you're here, and I would love to tell you about myself and my speaking and Coaching. 

I show women how to be stronger leaders in all they do and own their Christian lives in workshops, keynotes, and Coaching. I emphasize teaching Bible skills as we map out our extensive "WHY" to thrive in our professional, personal, and spiritual lives.   Are you a woman (or do you know a woman) who sits in church week after week thinking there has to be more to all this Christian life? Well, you are probably my gal. I can make a difference using new habits and a structured road map to get you where you want to be. 

Why teach Bible reading success skills alongside Christian Life Coaching and in my keynotes? 

It will clarify the standards God has set in His word. When we know how to read and study the Bible, we won't be easily deceived and will learn how to make wise choices. Better yet, we will see who God is. From there, women will be better leaders and legacy leavers. I have watched this repeatedly in the women I have coached and mentored for years. My coach showed me first, and I grew as a coach and speaker.

That's what I do now, about me….

I am a new bride to my fabulous husband, Michael, whom I married after we were both widowed in 2016. We didn't know each other until 2019, but after we met...Kablammy went our hearts for each other. We have five adult children, eight grandchildren (so far), and two dogs named Benji and Piper.

This blended family enjoys an occasional Sunday brunch where we can all get together and connect as we get to know one another better. 

The most challenging part of the brunch is deciding between iced coffee or hot coffee to accompany Michael's homemade waffles.

In 2016, I completed my BA degree in Bible and Christian Ministry. I also completed an Advanced Certificate in Biblical Counseling and an Advanced Diploma in Christian Life Coaching, emphasizing Spirit Life Growth. I quit my full-time Emergency Room job and a 17-year Women's Ministry Director role at my local church to make school my full-time job and focus. It worked! I completed all of this in 2 years. I have never worked so hard in all my life, but there was no one at home except Piper to distract me. 

As a gift for graduation, my mother sent me to Israel for a 14-day tour. What a gift! She said it was "time for me to feel the dust on my feet and taste olives from the region that Jesus walked."  

I have retired from a fabulous hospital career, during which I served in leadership roles specific to Emergency Department Patient Satisfaction covering three states. I am now a Speaker, Workshop Creator, and Christian Life Coach with a Bible Emphasis, and I serve as Discipleship Director at church.  

Serving in ministry, being widowed, and leading in Emergency Medicine during the Pandemic has taught me even more about the uncertainty of life, yet being specific about critical things. 

I speak and coach from the platform of God, family, spiritual legacy, actionable positive next steps, and people's capability. I bring a broad range of life experience, leadership skills, and Bible engagement solutions. Most importantly, in my speaking and coaching, I bring a roadmap to follow yet personalize it along the way that will sharpen your life skills.  

As a great storyteller who connects audiences with the words in the text, I see women's eyes light up when they connect with a passage or a story that makes them grow a little taller. That's the advantage of being in front of an audience or walking around in a workshop. This is the training and excitement I bring to my Christian Life Coaching clients, and you will also find that it is purposeful work.  

Life is short, and we are capable of learning great things if we have a growth mindset. Let's continue to grow together and sharpen our leadership skills with a spiritual emphasis! It makes a huge difference. 

Warmest Regards

-Shara
