Help Our Cause

I Am Retta Timmons, the Executive Director of Purpose Restored. A ministry established to ‘Build up the Broken’ by challenging women to be restored by releasing the pain of their past, recover their real identity and discover their real-life purpose which can assist with breaking those barriers. Sexual trauma steals your identity, your peace, your joy, your childhood and so much more. There is an ongoing battle within most, and they don’t know how to overcome it.  I am a certified life coach, an inspirational speaker with a transformational message! I Am the author of  “A Beautiful Tragedy” and “ The Metamorphosis of Healing” Journal - “birthed out of the desire to touch the hearts of those who are bound by secrets that cause them internal torture”. I Am A breakthrough coach who is also a sexual abuse survivor. This has lead me to “Co-actively” work  with my clients to combat the imprisonment of guilt, shame and self-rejection that stems from sexual trauma. I do what I do so my clients can live freely in their true identity. 

Overcoming trials and tribulations caused lack of self-worth, low self-esteem, as well as mental and emotional anxiety. Sharing my life experiences has inspired many to fight through the tough times and conquer the internal wars. Although I Am 5’0”, I’ve been known to have a bold 6’6” attitude with the love to encourage people back to life. My moniker, “Always Retta”, was given to me because of my transparency and vulnerability, a person who shares her heart unselfishly at any given time.  

What was once a life of trauma and seclusion is now a life of celebration. Graduating high school and earning an Associate of Arts Degree, along with a Life Coach certification from Howard Community College is a milestone for me, as I am the first in my family to do so. Today, I am also a certified Mental Health Coach through Light University, and a member of the American Association of Christian Counselors, this allows me to provide a deeper emotional and mental perspective regarding the issues my clients face. My unstoppable strength has pushed me to also pursue my Bachelor degree in Mass Communication. 

Through my various programs I Am determined to facilitate the healing of every person that gives me access. There is nothing like being restored back to your true identity and purpose. I am truly blessed to be a mother of a beautiful daughter who inspires me daily to keep going and living my true authentic life. I enjoy baking, bowling, runway modeling, Salsa dancing and teaching etiquette to the youth and young adults. I Am “Retta Timmons”.

“In tragic situations there is always something beautiful that comes from it, if you look with healed eyes.”

Without goals your life will unfold by default. Your default will be to continue to experience the same old patterns and to allow the outside world-your family, friends and society-to influence your life path.

Say “no” to “BUT”! BUT is the word that usually precedes an excuse.

The dictionary defines an excuse as: “self-justification; 'a defense

of some offensive behavior or some failure to keep a promise'.”

“Buts” are simply what you use to self-justify why you are not living the life you truly desire. Below are common “buts” that many of us use. If you are honest with yourself, you will see that these

are in fact excuses and not legitimate reasons.

The question is, then, why do we use these “buts?” Each “but” serves its own purpose, but ultimately they all help us to remain safe— to stay where we’re comfortable. Are You Ready to

Eliminate Those BUTS?
