Rose Ann was a successful C-Suite Executive and ministry leader in the church. She was a working mom of four and a social drinker. Over the years, life's stresses and a difficult marriage created an environment where her alcohol usage increased significantly. Her health and emotional wellbeing suffered greatly. After the collapse of her marriage, her drinking further escalated, and she felt like a fraud with God and the Church. She made many attempts to control it only to later lost control again. There were aspects of AA that didn't feel comfortable for her so it was not an option in her mind. She had already submitted to God an ddidn't want to call herself an alcoholic. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, she enrolled in a coaching program to put alcohol to the side for three months. Her experience was extremely transformational, and she recognized God's instruction embedded in the entire process. She identified what alcohol had stolen from her life and understood that God had a better plan for her. Rose Ann felt called to document what she learned with a daily devotional so others can experience God's promises through scriptural instruction with hope and a better plan for the future. Rose Ann is a Certified Positive Intelligence Coach and uses these scientific principles in her coaching to help people redirect negative thought patterns into positive ones.Rose Ann has four adult children, lives in Scottsdale AZ and loves experiencing all things arts and culture. She is philanthropically minded and currently serves on the Board of Arizona Western College Foundation and is the Chairman of the Board of Arizona Citizens for the Arts.
