Jovan Brown is a Christian leader and "mompreneur" who is dedicated to helping others tell compelling stories and develop their agency in the process. She is an editor, literary coach, writer, lifelong educator, and proud girl mom. Her passion for God, storytelling, education, and parenting have allowed her to shine light in shadowy spaces to help others become the best version of themselves .
