Get to know the beginnings of She Works His Way and the why + who behind all we do…
MICHELLE MYERS
Co-Founder
Years ago, Michelle noticed how easily women can become focused more on getting things done rather than on what matters most. What would happen if women could find a place that steadied their aim on the God-designed work being called out of them? At She Works His Way, we’re discovering the answer to that everyday. Michelle launched this non-profit discipleship community for working women to strengthen churches and stir one another up to love and good works. Michelle puts practical steps to the ultimate goal of working for the glory of God and the good of others. She and her co-founder/best friend, Somer, recently released a book, She Works His Way: A Practical Guide to What Matters Most in a Get Things Done World.
You’ll find Michelle in Asheville, NC with her husband, James, and three kids, Noah, Cole and Shea. (And, not to be left out, the newest addition – their pup, Knox!)
SOMER PHOEBUS
Co-Founder
Somer spent the first half of her career building the businesses of others, and the second half building and selling a few business of her own – all of which equipped her with the tools required to come alongside women who want their work to matter from an eternal perspective. Somer’s passionate about discipleship and helping women step boldly into their God-given gifts and callings. Combine that with being best friends with Michelle and coming on as She Works His Way’s cofounder was an obvious next step. And releasing the She Works His Way: A Practical Guide to What Matters Most in a Get Things Done World book with Michelle, too? No-brainer.
You’ll find Somer in Annapolis, MD with her husband, Kent, and their two daughters, Kennedi and Ava. (No pups on their end, Somer prefers a dog-hair free environment.)
SWHW Members are Saying:
Since joining swHw, my perspective on business and success has completely changed. It’s no longer about the number of followers I have or the amount of money I make. It’s about the impact I make for Him and how I am serving my clients with my God-given talents and abilities.
swHw has given me the opportunity to take leaps of faith in my business, successfully equip me with the knowledge I lack, and the courage to boldly declare God’s glory along the way without reservation.
As a new mom getting started in business, I saw other training along the lines of, “dream it & do it,” but swHw encourages me to lay down MY dreams to pick up GOD’S vision for my life- trusting that His ways are always higher.
Since joining the swHw family, my home and my business have merged under the same mission. No longer do they compete.
From the first day I joined the swHw community, I felt at home. It is a safe, encouraging, and welcoming space. The community is full of women who serve in diverse callings, with a variety of career backgrounds, but with a unified love for the Lord.
When the world is telling me to pursue the bottom line, to focus on my business and profits and gains, the swHw community fixes my gaze upon Christ and equips me to pursue Him above all else.
As a natural go getter, I don’t need the world’s reminders to “go harder”, “hustle more” “strive”, but to “abide” “rest” “trust” “surrender”. This doesn’t mean that I don’t work hard, but the focus is on showing up and serving and loving people well, leaving the results to the Lord.
Redefining Work:
Women often have a small view of work that only includes a thriving, impressive title or career. But in Scripture, we see that work is so much more than that. At SWHW, we help women define work biblically, so they can understand their true purpose and show up wherever God has them with an urgency and excitement to glorify God and serve people well.
At SWHW, everything we do filters through our values to remain:
- Dependent on God
- Committed to The Gospel
- Effective in Our Calling
SWHW Loves the Local Church!
Our community exists to stir women up to love and good works in the places God has them, but also for the purpose of strengthening the local church. We want to help women find and/or show up to their church ready to serve, disciple, and love those they get to worship God with.
