Your story is important and unique – just like you.

LELA (Life, Education, Literacy, Arts) House offers virtual coaching and writing services for Christian women ready to write their stories and transform their lives.

Who isn’t moved by a good story?

Stories are how we understand the world and make meaning. Stories are powerful and world changing. They transform us when we write them, and they change the world when we share them.

Your story is the same.

Your story reveals who you are and how you became the wonderfully unique individual you are. You can also direct your story in the future. You won’t know what possibilities reside inside you until you explore and write your story.

LELA stands for Life, Education, Literacy, Arts, and LELA House is where women write about our lives, education, literacy, and art.

The goal of LELA House is to help you become who God created you to be, by working through the LELA House themes: Learn Your Unique Design, Become Critically Engaged, and Transform Community. To learn your unique design is to realize who you are in God. To become critically engaged is to dive into your creativity and passions while working on your habits, skills, and mindsets that will unleash your writing power. To transform community is to discover and do the transformative writing God has called you to do.

Whether your call to writing and transformation is to explore the facets of yourself, finally write your book, finish your dissertation, start your blog, or transcribe your stories, LELA House is here to support you through through 4 unique services.

You, yes, you, have an important story to write. God has worked in your life in myriad ways to get you to where you are right now, and He has even more in store for you. Writing your story can help you uncover your next chapter.

Maybe you feel like your story isn’t important, that it’s too small, or that it’s not worth writing. Maybe you don’t feel like you’re a good writer. Maybe you feel like you can’t make the time to write your story, because you’re so busy living your life you don’t have the time to write about it.

Well, to that I say:

• You don’t have to be famous or feel special to have a story to write. You just need to be yourself, because your experiences are worthwhile and enough.
• You don’t have to be a good writer to tell your story. You just need life experiences to share. Writing is a skill that you can learn and improve.
• You don’t have time not to tell your story. Stories are one of the quickest ways to capture attention and change hearts, even yours. Time invested in honing your stories is an investment in shortening the time to get from where you are to your transformation goal. 

Tell your story. Transform your community.

Stories have been around forever, so they’re not new, but using them as tools to effect change isn’t always applied in our modern, data-driven lives. Our fast-paced society collects and shares a lot of data, but it doesn’t always share stories. And stories are where we share our humanity and reach each other’s hearts. That’s where change takes place. Once we’ve reached people’s hearts, their actions will follow. Stories transform the world, one reader at a time.

I serve women, just like you, by helping you tell the stories that often go unrecognized. You will find freedom in writing your stories. Through writing your stories, you can wrest back control of things that have made you feel powerless, frame your own narratives in your own voice, and create a future for yourself by (re)writing your past. This is transformative work.

God created you with a purpose; He has a plan for you that is beyond what you can ask or think. At LELA House, you can become who God created you to be through coaching & courses designed to help you discover your unique design, become critically engaged, and transform community.
