A Message from the Author...

Thank you for stopping by! 

Life forced me to change my tragedy into triumph after losing my oldest son, Christopher, to a car crash in 2006. Because of this, I host workshops around the country to assist families with breaking generational barriers for their family members and removing the pain from past hurtful encounters.

As a single mother of four, I am determined to exercise learned morals and values in our communities to ensure a positive future for young adults. I did not allow my pain to silence or hinder me. My hope is that, if you were affected by loss like me, you too can overcome with victory! 

Today, I am the founder of Love From Afar: The Christopher Allen Williams Foundation and P.A.D.D. (Parents Against Distracted Driving); I also serve as a certified teen life coach, mediator, mentor, motivational speaker, and Grief Recovery Specialist. I am also a P.R.I.D.E. (Parents Reducing Injury and Driver Error) instructor.
