Karla’s message resonates most with Christian working moms who long to prioritize home and faith without sacrificing their purpose.

Unbraided
Transforming Your Pain into Purpose
Karla shares her powerful testimony of healing, equipping women to face their emotional wounds with courage and faith. With honesty, grace, and biblical truth, she walks audiences through the process of acknowledging past pain, surrendering it to God, and stepping into the freedom and purpose He has prepared for them. This message is a tender invitation to wholeness for women who feel stuck, ashamed, or questioning whether healing is really possible for them.

Discovering Home
When God Calls You to Slow Down
This message affirms the deeply valuable—and often misunderstood—calling to focus on home and family. Karla offers spiritual insight and practical encouragement for women discerning a transition out of the workforce, drawing from her own journey of leaving a long-time career to embrace a slower, more intentional season of motherhood, faith, and purpose. With honesty and grace, she invites women to reimagine success, trust God’s provision, and say yes to a new rhythm rooted in what matters most.

Faith After Burnout
Resetting Your Life’s Pace
Ideal for high-achieving women battling exhaustion, this message speaks to the sacred invitation hidden in burnout: the chance to reset, refocus, and return to God. Karla shares her personal journey of stepping away from hustle and performance, finding spiritual renewal, and embracing a slower, more intentional way of living. With compassion and clarity, she encourages women to release unrealistic expectations, rediscover their identity in Christ, and walk in a pace marked by peace and purpose.

From Career to Calling
Redefining Success, God’s Way
This message is for women sensing that God is leading them out of a career-driven identity and into a new season of purpose. Karla equips her audience to release titles and roles they’ve outgrown and embrace the purpose God is preparing—whether at home, in motherhood, or in ministry. With biblical encouragement and personal insight, she helps women overcome fear, trust God’s timing, and step into a life marked by peace, purpose, and deeper intimacy with Him.
