Meet The Team

Leaders

From planning the annual conference to sharing what God is speaking to us, we have celebrated each other's successes and wept in each other's losses. We love seeing what God does with our YES's and how He continues to expand Jewel Warriors and awaken His lionesses.

Writers

Our dream is to connect women around the globe to empower each other. We continue to grow our team of writers who show vulnerability, courage, and love. Love overcomes the fear of being real. This isn’t about being in each other’s business, or comparing each other, this is about championing each other on in our journeys. We are not rivals and this is not a competition. We need women from all backgrounds and races, with all their scars, to show up for these conversations. No one recovers alone.

We are stronger together.
