She passionately helps women embrace their God-given purpose in marriages and families. With her book titled “10 Things I Hate About My Husband,” Shayla offers a compelling exploration into relationships, healing, and spiritual growth, all inspired by divine moments she experienced firsthand.

Quotable Quotes:

“Jesus is the only one who can love us perfectly on this side of heaven. Not even a parent can love you perfectly and a spouse can’t love you perfectly.”

“If other people in my life were in pain, I would start to think it was my fault.”

“If you want to be free and fully alive and used as my vessel, you have to give me your pain and we have to process it together and really heal.”
