Dana Che

I’m a joyful, purpose-driven, don’t-take-myself-too seriously, beach lovin’, ambitious woman who’s serious about my faith, my hubby, my family, my friends, and business
. . . in that order!

I am also a natural-born teacher, who loves to inspire and educate people through my podcast, speaking engagements, coaching platform, and writing.

Loves

Deep, meaningful conversations; banana pudding; seeing broken things made whole; anywhere with crystal blue ocean water; laughing until my stomach hurts and tears spill down my cheeks.

Most Embarrassing Story Ever

After church one day, I was leaning on a counter with my back toward the sanctuary. Moments before everyone came out, a friend rushed over to tell me that my entire dress had ripped down the middle!

Can Live Without

Rude people, bratty children, sauerkraut, cold temps, and boring people, especially if they’re rude.

Best Story Ever

My daughter, Cayla, was born in my car on the side of the road.

Why I’m Glad You’re Here

I know what it’s like to struggle in your marriage or feel out of place in your own skin. I was angry, frustrated, hurt, broken, and hopeless, and I felt helpless to change it. I didn’t want to repeat the cycle of dysfunction that ran in my family. I pass on to you what I have received . . .

Connection is what we’re all seeking. 

Relationships don’t work. People do. And if you’re willing to work, so am I.

MY

Marriage Story

Now that you’ve learned about me, meet Shaun. We first met as little kids. He claims I kissed him on his cheek and ran away. I have no recollection of this tale. But I did say I was ambitious, so there’s that . . .

We started dating as teens and got married at 18 & 21 years old. #DoNotAttempt. Enter the struggle bus.

We had a lot going against us when we got married. We were babies ourselves with a six-week-old baby in tow, and no idea of how to make a marriage work. We both quickly turned to other “means” of getting our needs met. Enter infidelity.

Broken dreams, broken trust, and broken hearts . . . a perfect recipe for divorce. BUT GOD. He truly is the Real MVP in our story. A story of a faithful God to two unfaithful people;  restoring our lives and our marriage.

Now, here we are, over 26 years into a marriage that’s better than ever. We’ll be forever be growing and learning. Enter gratitude.

Oh, and we added three more musketeers to our brood, completing our family of six. We are living our dreams in Virginia Beach, VA, and showing others that their story is far from over.

We are officially #TeamWilliams. Fun fact: when Shaun and I were dating, we both wanted three boys and a girl. And just like that, here they are.

Shaun and I have known each other since we were kids. We genuinely love being around each other (except when he snores or chews or poots).

Whether speaking, teaching, preaching, or hosting a TV show, I encourage and empower large and small audiences.

You are the sum total of the people you surround yourself with. I am grateful to have such extraordinary women in my life!
