About Karla B. Monterrosa

Karla B. Monterrosa is a wife, homeschooling mom, and former full-time working mother who walked away from a successful public service career to embrace a life centered on faith, family, and purpose. A survivor of childhood trauma, Karla experienced deep emotional and spiritual healing through Christ—and now walks in freedom.

Her book Unbraided was born from that healing journey, a testimony of God’s power to redeem pain and restore purpose. Karla writes and speaks with vulnerability and grace to help women trade fear for faith, and shame for freedom in Christ.

Today, she encourages Christian mothers to trust God’s timing, embrace their unique season, and step boldly into the life they were created for—at home and beyond.

Testimonials

“In Scripture, we see Esther rise in courage to protect her people, and Joseph, who endured great suffering, declare in Genesis 50:20, ‘You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good.’ Karla Monterrosa embodies that same spirit. She is a woman who has walked through pain and, by God’s grace, has emerged as a powerful witness to others who carry deep wounds. Karla has been called for such a time as this—to be a voice for women who feel silenced by trauma. I deeply admire the strength she draws from Jesus and the compassion she extends to those crying out in silence. My prayer is that Karla continues to lead women to the fountain that set her free—Jesus Christ—and that many more will link arms with her, rejoicing in the healing and freedom only He can bring.”
