She writes with passion, talks with excited inflection and lights up crowds with her bold, funny, tell-it-like-it-is testimony. Some call her Leslie, but to most she’s The Purpose Diva.

Leslie’s mission as both a powerful speaker and coach, and as a human being, simple: Help women and teenaged girls find purpose and prosperity living out what they were called to do.

She has also been featured in many publications and news programs, including CNN Headline News, Ebony and 90.9 KCBI Radio Dallas/Ft. Worth, was recognized by Stiletto magazine as one of the 50 Most Amazing Women on the Web, and featured on the cover of TIME Magazine as part of the TIME and JB Project.

A Certified Life Purpose Coach, Licensed minister and Elder at Kingdom Worship and Restoration Church where Bishop Omar Jahwar is her Pastor, Leslie uses sound Christian principles to help people gain clarity, make choices and transform their lives through accountability and action.

Leslie’s motto:  “It’s not about living life – it’s about living life on purpose.”
