Laronda is a mental health RN and women's minister. Throughout her career, she has always been drawn to helping those who are broken and in pain. When she discovered that she could potentially die suddenly from a genetic heart defect, she realized that healing emotional wounds is just as important as healing physical ones.

 

Laronda is highly sought after as a Christian speaker, known for her powerful messages of hope and healing. Her greatest joy comes from witnessing women being liberated from the lies and trauma of their past.

​

With over 30 years of experience as a registered nurse, Laronda has worked in various fields such as cardiology, critical care, mental health for both adults and children, drug and alcohol detox and recovery, and sexual offender programs.

 

In addition to her nursing background, Laronda is an ordained minister and certified biblical counselor. She has also received training in inner healing prayer. Laronda has served as the assistant director of Victory Life Ministries, where she provided pastoral counseling, led small groups, facilitated recovery groups, mentored women, and directed Daughters of Grace, a ministry specifically for women transitioning out of the sex industry.

 

Laronda founded and directed Agape Connection Ministries, Inc., an organization dedicated to helping women recover from emotional trauma.

 

Outside of her work, Laronda cherishes quality time with her husband, Scott, their two children (and their spouses), and their four granddaughters. She finds joy in traveling and infusing everyday situations with a touch of humor.
