Hi, I’m Jalene!
If I had the privilege of sitting across from you today?
I would likely fumble around with small talk before leaning in close to ask about your passions and dreams, hopes and fears, and the way that God has woven His grace throughout the precious story that is your life.
My dad once pulled me aside and told me that I need to learn to talk about the weather.
But ain’t nobody got time for that.
Most of my days are full to the brim with all the beautiful chaos that comes with raising three little people, but I regularly give myself the grace of hiding away with a cup of coffee to weave words or melodies together. Whether on a page or a screen, in a living room with a small circle of friends, or on a platform - my heart spills over when I get to take these words and melodies and share them with others who are on this wild journey of following Jesus too.

She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Theology, a Diploma in Music and Songwriting from Prairie College, and a Diploma in Christian Leadership from Rocky Mountain College.

Through speaking, writing, and music, Jalene invites women to grow in the knowledge and wonder of Jesus, to be formed by His love, and to discover what it looks like to embody that love in the ordinary, beautiful, complicated places of life.
