Funny how life comes full circle. 🔥
Years ago, I was on the set of CBS's Joan of Arcadia, featured as a Paris Café Dancer and performing a choreographed dance sequence for the scene.
What makes this memory even more remarkable to me now is that I was away from my faith at the time. I didn't even really know what the show was about-I simply showed up to do the job.
Only looking back now do I realize the beautiful irony.
Joan of Arcadia centered around a young woman who encounters God in unexpected ways and is asked to follow Him, even when she doesn't fully understand what He is doing.
Years later, after my own return to faith, St. Joan of Arc would come to hold a very special place in my heart-her courage, faith, and willingness to follow God's call deeply resonate with the message I now carry.
And then there's the fire. 🔥
A young woman who followed God fearlessly, even through the flames.
Years later, the message God placed on my own heart would become BECOME THE FIRE-a message about allowing the very fires meant to destroy us to become the place where faith, purpose, and courage are forged.
I certainly couldn't see any of that standing on this set all those years ago.
Sometimes we only recognize the threads of our story when we look backward. ❤️🔥
"I was born to do this." — St. Joan of Arc

I BOOKED THE COVER!!! 🙌❤️
I’m incredibly honored to share that I’m featured on the cover of Shalom Tidings Magazine with a story that is so deeply personal to me.
And of all days, I first learned this article was happening on my grandma’s birthday in Heaven. 🤍
It’s about my grandma—the woman whose extraordinary faith, unconditional love, and unceasing prayers helped change the course of my life.
She prayed four Rosaries every single day. But perhaps her greatest legacy was the way she loved. She loved completely and unconditionally.
And in the final moments of her life, it was love that remained.
When my grandma was in the hospital with COVID, I couldn’t be there to hold her hand. A nurse held the phone to her ear, and after hours of prayer, I finally asked, “God, what do You want me to say to her?”
The words that came were…
“Grandma, we will be together forever. Nothing can ever separate us… Love never dies.”
Those became my final words to my grandma and she passed right at that very moment!
Somehow, God had her last breath measured perfectly to those words—and to the eternal truth they carried:
Love. Never. Dies. ❤️
She left behind a legacy of love that is still living.
The fire within her is still burning…
I know this because a spark flew out of her heart and landed in mine.
And now, all these years later, the title of the cover?
LOVE NEVER DIES.
This cover means so much more to me than a career milestone. It is a continuation of her legacy. A testimony to the power of prayer. And a reminder that the love we give on this earth continues long after we leave it.
Grandma, your story is still being told. This cover is for you! 🤍👼

Years ago, I was on a Times Square billboard. ✨
I booked a modeling job for WWE’s “Tough Enough” on MTV. We did the photo shoot at Madison Square Garden, and this image ended up as a massive billboard spanning the side of a building in Times Square. (Family members came to see it & snapped this photo - thank God, because for some reason I didn’t!)
I wasn’t actually on the show—I was one of the models for the campaign. But looking at this image all these years later, the words “Tough Enough” mean something entirely different to me.
I had no idea then how much of life would involve a different kind of wrestling—with God, with surrender, with trust, and with learning where true strength really comes from. ✝️
Back then, “tough” meant being strong enough to make it.
Today, I think real strength is something deeper.
It’s trusting God when you can’t see the way forward.
It’s getting back up after life knocks you down.
It’s walking through the fire without allowing it to destroy who you are.
And sometimes, it’s realizing that surrender takes far more courage than control ever did.
Funny how an image from one chapter of your life can speak so differently in another.
Maybe the question isn’t, “Are you tough enough?”
Maybe it’s, “Do you trust God enough?” ❤️🔥

From the Face of Jergens... to a Face for Christ.
Years ago, I was honored to be chosen for a national Jergens campaign.
At the time, I never imagined where God would eventually lead my life.
Looking back, I can see that every chapter of my story—even the ones I didn’t fully understand then—became part of the testimony He was writing.
I’m grateful for every season because each one has revealed more of God’s faithfulness and His ability to lead us somewhere even more beautiful than we could have imagined.

"Hold the Cross high so I can see it through the flames." - St. Joan of Arc
The goal is to become the kind of person who can stand in the fire with our eyes fixed on Christ.
Not because the fire doesn't hurt.
Not because we have all the answers.
But because there is Another in the fire with us. 🔥
And when our eyes are fixed on Him, the fire doesn't have to consume us.
It can transform us.
It can refine us.
It can ignite something within us—
until we BECOME THE FIRE THAT MAKES A CHANGE. 🔥
Grateful to have shared this message from Become the Fire with the Legatus Fort Worth Chapter. ✝️🔥

Years ago I was a romance novel cover model, appearing on numerous book covers sold in major bookstores and retailers across the country.
Ironically...
I never even read what happened to my character.
But God was writing a different story for my life all along. ❤️
Today I don’t pose for fictional love stories.
I get to share the greatest love story ever told.
Every story can be redeemed. ✨

Happy Feast Day to St. Ignatius of Loyola! ❤️🔥
St. Ignatius has been one of the saints who has deeply impacted my spiritual life.
His wisdom on discerning God’s will has profoundly influenced my own journey and inspired principles I share in my book, Become the Fire.
May we all seek God’s will with courage, trust His voice, and become who He created us to be.
“Go forth and set the world on fire.”
St. Ignatius of Loyola, pray for us. 🙏

Beauty begins within.
Faith gives it purpose.
Eternity gives it meaning.
In a world that chases what is temporary, the Rosary gently draws our hearts toward what lasts.
Every decade is an invitation to slow down, encounter Jesus through Mary's eyes, and remember that we were made for heaven.
Happy Sunday! đź’›

Master of the Pieces took me 4 years to write.
The companion workbook took 2 months.
Become the Fire took just 2 weeks.
Why the dramatic difference?
Because Master of the Pieces wasn't just a book.
It was my healing journey.
I was broken into so many pieces, and allowing God into those deepest wounds...facing my fears...learning to forgive...seeing myself the way He sees me...it wasn't easy.
But healing was worth every tear.
The beautiful thing I've discovered is that it's not that life no longer hurts. We all go through new fires.
The difference is that now, with Jesus and His truth, I can walk through those fires so much more quickly because I'm no longer walking through them alone.
The workbook only took two months because God had already done so much healing in my heart.
Then Become the Fire took just two weeks.
Ironically, it wasn't even supposed to be a book. I simply sat down to write a short handout on discerning God's will...
But God.
He clearly had other plans.
People often ask me why I wrote these books.
The answer is simple.
For my healing...and yours.
Every time someone hurts me—even now—the fire in my heart only burns brighter to help more people experience healing and discover the purpose God created them for.
Because it's true...
Hurt people hurt people.
Healed people heal people.
My prayer is that these books bring you the healing, peace, and freedom you've always longed for.
Please feel free to share this post with someone who needs hope, or tell them about these books if you think they could encourage them. Many churches and small groups have even begun using them for Bible studies, and that has been such a blessing to witness.
I’d also love to hear your story. Have you ever looked back and realized God had a much bigger plan than you could see at the time? I'd love to hear your story. ❤️
