About Trishonda
Yes, I am a pastor, coach, and nonprofit executive—but those are just titles. At my core, I’m a woman who’s been broken and rebuilt by grace. My life’s work is rooted in one truth: God can transform pain into purpose and use ordinary people to bring extraordinary change.
​
I know what it feels like to lead while silently battling depression, doubt, and the weight of unmet expectations. But God met me in those hidden places and reminded me that healing isn’t weakness — it’s where strength begins. That revelation changed everything and birthed my passion for helping people, churches, and communities discover wholeness and walk boldly in purpose.
​
My journey has taken me from hospital rooms as a mental health nurse, to pulpits as a minister of the Gospel, to boardrooms and classrooms as a community leader and advocate. Each season has taught me that transformation happens when faith meets action — when we heal what’s broken, lead with compassion, and build communities where everyone can thrive.
​
I don’t just want to make an impact; I want to leave a legacy. And my mission is to help others — especially women and the next generation of leaders — do the same.
