The Story
Who We Are
P31 Impact Initiative, formally known as FAR Women’s Ministry, was founded in 2017 to serve women through faith centered education, leadership development, and community impact. What began as a grassroots ministry has evolved into a structured nonprofit organization committed to the holistic development of women across spiritual, emotional, professional, and community spaces.
P31 Impact Initiative serves as the organizational and operational foundation for all programming, partnerships, and community initiatives, including Beyond My Brokenness.
The mission of P31 Impact Initiative is to equip women to become whole, grounded, and effective leaders by providing access to education, resources, safe spaces, and community partnerships that support sustainable growth and long term impact.

is a Christian educator, leadership strategist, and the founder of P31 Impact Initiative, the nonprofit organization behind the Beyond My Brokenness movement.

What began as a small gathering has grown into a nationally attended leadership experience serving women across professional, faith, and community spaces.

She is a doctoral level practitioner in Christian education whose leadership is rooted in biblical scholarship, lived experience, and community impact. Her work centers on helping women move from survival and burnout into clarity, conviction, and sustainable leadership across home, career, business, and community.
