Speaker, Coach, Author

Gabrielle Hamen is a Thrivor! Adoption, abuse and anguish set the stage for a little girl to face a life filled with pain. Along the way Gabrielle encountered God and learned that despite her past circumstances and choices God’s love and grace would move her from barely surviving to energetically thriving. For years people asked her how she did it. “My faith in God,” was her constant answer. Challenged to define how she thrived through such adverse circumstances, Gabrielle wrote the lessons and strategies she’s learned along the way in her first book, Thrivorship: Power Tools For Success. Whether Gabrielle is speaking to an entire congregation or one individual her faith and zeal for human potential is contagious. She skillfully unites biblical principles with practical life applications to help us all learn a bit more about the saving power of Christ and to empower others to thrive through their challenges.

The LORD is with me; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? Psalm 118:6 NIV

Reading this verse, what phrase jumps at you? For me it’s, “What can man do to me?”  In the past my response to this question was, “PLENTY!” Never feeling like I had control, I felt I existed for everyone else’s tortured enjoyment.
