My Story
Finding Inspiration in Every Turn
Matthew 6:34
"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
Angela is a devoted Christian and accomplished mental health therapist who firmly believes in meeting individuals where they are on their journey. Her unique blend of clinical expertise and spiritual insight has equipped her to navigate and overcome profound mental and spiritual challenges. Angela’s personal battles with grief, anger, resentment, envy, impatience, and a desire to control every aspect of life have been transformative experiences that shaped her into the woman she is today. Through these trials, Angela learned to fully surrender to God, embracing a life of faith and trust in His plan. She no longer excludes herself from the grace she extends to others, nor does she believe more for others than for herself. Instead, she boldly walks the path God has laid before her—fearful yet unwavering in her commitment to His calling.
A defining moment in Angela’s life came during a church service when a prophet declared that she would write a book. At the time, Angela dismissed the idea, believing she was unworthy of such a calling. “I killed the dream because I didn’t think I was worth it,” she reflects. For over a decade, Angela wrestled with doubt and denied her role as an author. It wasn’t until 2019, during a Bible study where a man shared his struggle with prioritizing something over God, that Angela experienced a breakthrough. This pivotal moment reignited her faith and set her on the path to becoming an author.
Angela went on to publish her first book, I Want This More Than God, So I’ll Ask Him for It, a powerful testament to her journey of faith and self-discovery. Saying "yes" to this calling unlocked countless opportunities and laid the foundation for #MyselfIncluded—a transformative movement and platform inspired by Angela’s story and vision. Today, #MyselfIncluded stands as a beacon of hope, healing, and empowerment for all who seek to include themselves in their journey toward wholeness and purpose.
