About Shelley

Shelley’s passion is to help others live a more beautiful life: spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and relationally.

While in Atlanta, Shelley hosted “Atlanta Live!”– a Christian Talk Show on Atlanta’s WATC TV 57 for 6 years, and has been featured on radio and TV, including nationally and internationally. She speaks at various events nationwide and is also a published author.

Shelley has written several studies and books, including “On Purpose for a Purpose” and “Wisdom: A Girl’s Best Friend” as well as “Why Can’t We Just Get Along?!” with Harvest House Publishers – deemed a “Must Read” by Called Magazine Summer 2013. She has also contributed to devotions and curriculum for Barbour Publishing and Randall House Publishing as well as several national blogs.

In 2007, Shelley founded Church 4 Chicks in the Atlanta area with the mission to create events and resources to help women live with purpose, but without the pressure (that so many women today feel). This ministry was born after spending over a decade serving women in her home church and in her speaking ministry. C4C has grown to a national platform with both online resources and events.

Currently, Shelley serves in the area of coaching, consulting, teaching, communications, outreach, content creation and editing for several non-profits and for-profits in Coastal Georgia, including Centered for Life, The Remedy Project, and House of Hope.

Shelley is honored to be married to her best friend, Stephen Hendrix, LPC, CADC II, with whom she serves as a coach and consultant through Heart Smart: Counseling, Coaching and Consulting Services in St. Simons Island, Georgia. They have two grown daughters, one teenage son, and the cutest 2 year old grandson you’ve ever seen!
