Hey there, I’m Julianne!
I help Christians overcome digital distraction, build life-giving habits, and create space to grow spiritually and live intentionally.
That path has shaped how I lead and how I live. It’s taught me the power of honesty and transparency, which I believe are the hinges on the door to breakthrough. As I’ve learned to be honest with myself, I’ve experienced the deepest transformation. I’ve also learned the value of asking the right questions, not just for my own growth, but to help others discover who they are in Christ and build a life that reflects it.
My journey hasn’t just been about accumulating titles or roles. It’s been a deeply personal quest to overcome my own struggles, insecurities, and doubts learning firsthand what it means to walk in both faith and freedom.
Over the years, I’ve seen many faith-led men and women stuck in habit loops that don’t serve God, themselves, or others. I understand how overwhelming it can feel to break free from life’s distractions, especially in a world dominated by screens that steal your time, dilute your faith, and distort your focus.

It’s taken me a while to realize that the very things I sometimes wish were different about myself are actually the most special. Let me share some of my story and everyday life with you.
The words “Be You” are written on a sign I see every day in my office. It reminds me to be myself—because I am a genuine original, a masterpiece created by God.
The Everyday Me
This might surprise you: fun doesn’t come naturally for me! But I’ve learned it’s good for the soul, so I make space for it on purpose. I’ve surrounded myself with fun-loving friends, leaned into my kids’ sense of humour, and found ways to intentionally “make fun” with my husband, at work, and even on my own. I’ve learned to laugh at myself, delight in life’s simple joys, and cherish the kind of friendships where I can be both serious and silly in the same breath.

FUN
I’m a girly-girl living in a house full of boys where action movies, smelly hockey gear, and non-stop activity have been the norm, and I wouldn’t trade it for a second.
FAMILY
My husband is kind and has a genuine servant heart. He’s most comfortable helping quietly behind the scenes. He’s also our resident cook, mechanic, and #1 country music fan, and I couldn’t be more thankful.
We have two grown boys who bring laughter and excitement into our home, not to mention an empty refrigerator! We’ve enjoyed a season of empty nesting, but our house is fuller again with our boys back at home while starting their professional careers. We continue to cheer them on and are their biggest fans.
I met Christ in grade five through a tiny Gideon New Testament, but it wasn’t until I was thirty that I wholeheartedly began following God and joined a thriving local church where I’ve now served for 20 years and currently lead as Executive Director.
FAITH
In this role, I provide organizational leadership to align our ministry objectives with the mission, vision, and values of our multisite church. I especially love equipping and investing in leaders.
That whole story is simply God’s grace.
Beyond the local church, I’ve led weekend retreats, taught at the Women’s Ministries Institute, and served on national and regional boards for the Fellowship of Evangelical Baptist Churches in Canada. I also led prayer initiatives across Canada with Gather Women and was part of the teams that brought Beth Moore and Priscilla Shirer to Toronto.

The Everyday Me
What I do matters far less than who I am.
I’m a passionate follower of Christ.
It brings me joy to help others thrive in their God-given identity and purpose. I love Jesus, and over the years, I’ve learned to love myself too. The most fruitful part of my faith journey has been learning to take my position in Christ and stand firm in it. I’ve embraced the freedom He offers and my identity as a daughter of the King. My heart beats for the local church, for women (especially leaders), for prayer, and for soul-nourishing rhythms of rest.
My friends call it “ooze,” but I believe that when I’m moved by a powerful teaching, a worship song, a God-story, or a whisper from His Word, I can’t help but invite others to come and see like the woman at the well in John 4.
