Nadine Dyer is the founder and Chief Servant Officer of Purposeful Living INC. She is on a mission to heal, grow, inspire, and empower women to be all that God created them to be.

Dyer started Purposeful Living with a simple vision: to unite women. She is passionate about serving the isolated modern woman; the woman who looks like she has it all together, but behind closed doors she is hurting, searching, or lonely. Following a mission trip to Africa, Dyer was strongly impacted by African women’s sense of community and became more aware of the needs of the women in her backyard.

After discovering statistics showing the overwhelming number of women in America who were struggling with depression, abuse, addiction, and isolation, the mission became crystal clear. Women need a community where they can heal, be inspired, be motivated, and grow as they become the women that God intended them to be. In the most ideal state scenario for Purposeful Living, she sees hundreds of thousands of women linking arms together for the kingdom of God.

Dyer completed her undergraduate degree at Wayne State University. She also completed training at Coach U. Prior to her work at Purposeful Living, Dyer was a Division Manager with Vector Marketing and a Life Coach with Total Life Consulting.
