My Story
I know what it’s like to face broken dreams and deep loss:
-
Losing my beautiful daughter at 28 weeks of pregnancy (2010)
-
Losing my best friend of 23 years (2018)
-
Losing my beloved mother (2019)
-
Closing the doors of my childcare business while fighting to hold my marriage together
I’ve walked through grief, fear, and uncertainty. But by God’s grace, I discovered resilience, healing, and freedom in Christ. My past became the platform for my purpose—helping others to BREAKFORTH into healing, hope, and joy.
About Sanita Mitchell
My Passion
-
I especially love working with women, because so many of us wear masks—looking “together” for others, while silently battling imbalance and pain inside. My calling is to create safe, faith-filled spaces where women, couples, and even children can grieve, heal, and rediscover joy.
-
When I’m not coaching or speaking, I love walking, trying new recipes, enjoying the beach, listening to music and podcasts, and spending time with family—especially my sweet grandson!
My Experience
-
6+ years helping women heal from grief (pregnancy/infant loss, parental loss, friendship loss, pet loss)
-
10+ years coaching couples toward thriving marriages
-
15 years of blended family experience—Antonio and I are PRO-blended families!
-
Founder & Executive Director of Anaya’s Project (501c3), supporting families impacted by pregnancy and infant loss
