Hope*Writer Mastermind Series: Katie Kibbe

Coach, Writer, & Speaker

For my next introduction of a fabulous Hope*Writers Mastermind friend, I’m excited to have you meet Katie Kibbe. She is a true superwoman, a trifecta as a coach, writer, and speaker. This lovely woman helps women to embrace their stories so they can live confident in their calling.

In her own words…

Stories have the power to change lives and they need to be shared. I help women make sense of their missional moments so they can leave a lasting legacy with their family and community. I also help faith-based writers gain clarity and confidence so they can share their own transformational messages.

Our lives are made up of Missional Moments that define who we are and what we stand for. If we mine these moments and understand their meaning, our stories transform into a message that connects us with others. Our Missional Moments propel us to make a positive impact in other’s lives. The life-changing power of your message multiplies when your story is shared in conversations among women.
Katie Kibbe
Coach, Writer, Speaker

I can’t say when I first saw Katie. She showed up in Carlsbad with her sweet, loving spirit and was always nearby when I needed a friend or someone to talk to. She sparkled and glowed, always with a smile on her face and arms ready to hug a friend.

Katie is a talented writer and even better friend. She encourages, gently nudges, and guides you on your way. If you’ve fallen, she helps you up, if your lost, she leads you back to your right path. Insightful and wise, when Katie speaks, people listen.

Multi-talented, Katie offers a variety of ways to grow and learn how to deepen your faith and share your own story.

  • Faith-based discussion guides
  • Devotional studies to help you grow
  • One-on-one- coaching
  • Content coaching for writers
  • Her Blog

Katie has lived all over the United States, and traveled all over the world. Wife and mother of two, she understands how life can impact our stories. A lovely sense of humor, love of Texas, which is where she grew up.

I think of Katie as the momma of our group. She works to keep up together and connected, usually spearheading efforts to make our time together strong and lasting.

Be sure to check out Katie Kibbe’s website to learn more and see all of the wonderful ways Katie can help you achieve your God-given purpose.

I hope you enjoyed meeting Katie, an insightful, loving woman I am blessed to call friend. 

Until next time, may God’s grace surround you,

Strong Southern Woman: Delia Anne’s Quotes

If you read my last post, California or Bust I hope you enjoyed reading more background about Delia Anne Mays. She’s one of my favorite characters because she reminds me so much of the women in my life. I took parts of my grandmother, mother, and a few other colorful women in my life to create Delia Anne. A true Southern lady full of class and grace.

Each one, strong and kind, all Southern ladies full of grace and wisdom. Delia Anne is a mix of them all.

In my first novel of the Grace Series, Delia Anne has come up with the perfect plan to bring her granddaughter back home to face the boyfriend who broke her heart ten years ago. She doesn’t know why they broke up but knows the two young people are perfect for each other. Deciding it’s her Christian duty to bring them back together after a sermon from her pastor. And if it means she has to fib about her health to do it – well that’s okay, because it will be worth it.
