MONICA HURD
Meet the Founder
For years, I was the strong one...the preacher’s kid, the oldest child, the helper, and the person everyone depended on. I learned how to push through pain, silence my own needs, and keep showing up even when I was struggling inside.
My journey includes trauma, heartbreak, homelessness, divorce, abuse, motherhood, and starting over. I built while broken and encouraged others while privately searching for healing of my own. Through every season, God never let go of me.
In 2008, I started a small book club with friends to read The Purpose Driven Life. What began as a simple gathering became a safe place for people to breathe, heal, grow, and reconnect with God and their purpose. That gathering eventually became The Purpose Driven Network.
As I poured into others, God restored my voice and rebuilt my life. Today, I am a mother of five, worshipper, author, creative, survivor, and purpose-driven leader committed to helping others heal, grow, and live the life God intended.
PDN exists because I know what happens when purpose becomes buried and I am living proof of what happens when God brings it back to life.
Welcome to PDN, where your story matters, your healing is sacred, and your purpose has a place to call home.
Dive in. Let’s swim.
"When you commit to growth after trauma, there is resurrecting power that demands your hope, potential and faith to rise up. An even better version of you is waiting to emerge."
