NADINE JAMISON

Table Name TBD

I’m Nadine Jamison, I’ve been in the Cleveland Ohio area for almost 5 years now. I have moved across country a few times now and finding a church family has always been key to feeling at home in a new state. I’m one of those crazy moms building an in home business so that I can center my life around my priorities. I have a degree in business with a concentration in marketing. My children are nearly 16 “YIKES” and 12, both Boys. I’ve been married for 13 years, to my husband Steve.  I’m incredibly passionate about teaching other women what I’ve learned about living life in balance. Finding connections with other women, and giving themselves grace are key. I believe that when a woman finds value in herself she sends a ripple effect to all those around her. Understanding that her value is a gift from God and that she is treasured by him unlocks her potential to thrive as a wife, mother, sister, and friend. I am blessed to remind her of that value, pray over her, and simply encourage her through Momtourage.
