    The Path to Purposeful Living with Gabrielle Flowers-Rader

    The Path to Purposeful Living with Gabrielle Flowers-Rader

    Growing up in Indianapolis, Indiana, Gabrielle had big dreams of how her life would go. From yelling “Aggie Pride” at North Carolina A&T to pursuing acting in the Big Apple, what she thought she wanted, never came to fruition. God had other plans for her. 

    When life got difficult, Gabrielle took to YouTube as her creative outlet, sharing her natural hair journey as a hobby. Safe to say, the rest is history.

    Today, Gabrielle is a proud graduate of Tennessee State University. She and her family are behind the name GabeBabe TV, a YouTube channel documenting the details of their life. With over 500K subscribers, Gabrielle shares the importance of keeping the family integrity and the impact her channel has had on their community, as well as the community’s impact on them.

    Courage in the Deep End with Conrad Cooper

    Courage in the Deep End with Conrad Cooper

    Born in Germany to military parents, restlessness was something Conrad Cooper was born into. He inherited that same spirit of traveling the world, wandering from city to city, and letting the waves of life direct him. But it wasn’t until one day his niece was getting swimming lessons in his backyard that everything changed.



    Now, 28 years later, Conrad is teaching 2nd generation students at his swim school, Swim to Me, changing how adults and children feel about the water and providing a safe space for them to feel confident in their skills. He continues to help break generational barriers of fear and is creating a new legacy of swimmers.

    Born in Spartanburg, South Carolina, and raised in Woodruff, South Carolina, Sandra Clark Byrd is the fourth child to Ulius and Mary Gilliam. But at only 7-weeks-old, tragedy hit after her father lost his life in a devastating car accident, leaving her mother to raise 4 children under the age of seven.

But after 41 years of marriage, tragedy struck again. Her husband lost his battle with cancer and Sandra was forced to re-discover herself and trust God’s plan.
