142. Pursuing Passion with Sharla Walker Black Girls with Purpose Podcast

Sharla Walker is a pediatric nurse practitioner who after witnessing the struggles of young women in her practice decided to be the change she wanted to see. Her passion led her to found Hearts Over Habits, Inc. a nonprofit organization aimed to provide life skills and mentorship to young women in vulnerable populations such as foster care, the juvenile justice system, young women in poverty, and those living in minority communities.

In 2020, Hearts Over Habits, Inc. received the National Mentoring Resource Center Technical Assistance Grant which provides assistance to provide evidence-based mentoring programs. Along with a committed leadership team Hearts Over Habits, Inc. is committed to the success of the young women they serve.

Her story is one of faith, love, and growth. She and her husband packed up and moved across the country after a word from God in 2016. Little did she know that God was positioning her to move in a way she never imagined.
