When your values are being edited out of the culture, when God is no longer reflected in the world around you, and the LAST DAYS seem to be playing out in real time—remember this: You weren't designed to be silent. You were designed to lead.
Don't worry about winning a debate.
Win a heart instead.
Trade the fear of confrontation for the power of graceful influence. Learn to gently lead others to the Light of the world, one kettle-side conversation at a time.
Hi, I'm Diane
Healing has been the heartbeat of my entire career: From healing businesses in crisis as a consultant (specializing in women business owners), to healing hearts as a professional songwriter, to running for the TN State House of Representatives in 2020 with healing solutions for veterans after losing my brother to the mental scars of war.
That race launched me into nearly seven years of studying our culture from the inside out. For the last 4 years, I’ve been training women from political stages in my signature techniques. I have spent my entire career serving suburban women in one way or another.
After these years in the political arena, I realized that there is absolutely no political solution for the healing of America.
The 'political machine' thrives on division because it's incredibly profitable. We don't need more political 'fire'...we need more 'Light.'
In teaching women how to be a 'Tea Light'—a gentle, glowing presence who wins hearts for Jesus in their own neighborhoods, the political issues will take care of themselves. If you win the mom, you win the home, you win the culture, and America wins!
I’ve walked away from the political rooms to help women navigate the hard-hitting headlines and the tough conversations that follow them through a more peaceful, biblical worldview.
Our only hope is the Light of the world. The darker it gets, the more significant one small light can be. We become beacons for those lost and searching.
There is an art to this that I have developed over a lifetime, and I can't wait to share it with you.
Until Jesus returns, there is still hope! We have a commission in these last days, and we don't have a minute to lose. Let's "Lady Up", refuse to yield our neighborhoods to the enemy, and win the lost to Jesus!
"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose." - Romans 8:28

We're not in a political or cultural war, but in a spiritual one between good and evil, and I assure you, there is NO cavalry coming out of Washington, D.C. We, the Church, are the cavalry!
Tensions were extremely high in our country when I ran for the Tennessee State House of Representatives in 2020. No one can fully prepare you for the vicious public attacks you'll endure when your name goes on the ballot as a Christian conservative in our modern culture.
But that year was particularly challenging during COVID, BLM riots, and the political division plaguing our country and our families. There was a high personal cost to me and many others for taking a stand for Christ.
My background as a business crisis consultant, specializing in women-owned businesses, where I navigated high-pressure situations and counseled leaders through the personal turmoil that accompanied them, proved invaluable.
Similarly, my experience as a professional songwriter trained me how to dig deep and craft authentic, meaningful, and concise messages that move the needle in the human heart.
But God gets ALL the credit for getting me through that tumultuous race both politically and personally. I experienced spiritual breakthroughs that transformed my life and led me to the work I do today!
I finished surprisingly well for State House of Representatives, at 46%, in a District in the heart of Nashville, which was a third Republican, a third Democrat, and a third Independent. Soon after, God began to show me how he wanted to repurpose my former careers as both a crisis consultant and a professional singer/songwriter for the political and cultural challenges we face today.
This is the most fulfilling work I have ever done.
I've had a front row seat to the machine of politics, and without question, our only hope for America is God! We've drifted so far from Him, and we're enduring severe repercussions; therefore, we must reclaim our culture. This starts with our neighborhoods, one graceful conversation at a time.
True influence stems from authentically engaging with those we naturally encounter each day in a way that reflects the character of Christ. This is hard to do when we are wounded warriors, and we lose our influence because of hypocrisy.
So, we must begin by healing within our own hearts and minds if we hope to heal our country. As we become more effective ambassadors for Jesus, we are more capable of navigating and influencing the toughest battleground of our lifetime...
the suburbs!
This is much more doable than we think! All we need to do is drop a pebble into the "still water" of a neighbor's worldview and watch the ripples move long after she has left the table. I'll show you how to do this in a way that is much less likely to get you ostracized or labeled 'that neighbor'.
Let's do this! - Warmly, Diane

"Music has been a friend and a healer to me throughout my life as I clung to it to help give expression to my pain and make sense of the world. After years of playing the world-famous Bluebird Cafe in Nashville as a professional songwriter, I had a vision for a new show. We toured with it for 7 years and held residencies in the most elegant venues around the country, before the show went to television in 2014.
My show featured a Roster of 35 pro-level Nashville songwriters, reached 100 million U.S. households, and was syndicated for 2 years in 3 countries. I loved every minute of hosting, singing, traveling, taping, and "doing life" with these incredible artists as we worked through our struggles together as friends and passed our healing lessons on to adoring audiences for years." - Diane
