2024 Woman to Watch: Dr. Ebonee Gresham
Amidst the hustle and bustle of a city, there is a voice that speaks profound truth. This voice belongs to Dr. Ebonee Gresham, affectionately known as Dr. Ebonee Empowers. Driven by divine purpose, her words shape the future of women’s empowerment through the grace of God. Her journey, consisting of challenges and victories, has forged her message into a powerful force glorifying God.
“I am a wife, a mother of ten, an empowerment speaker, author, coach and a Doctor of Nursing Practice,” declares Dr. Ebonee, a testament to her multi-faceted life, each role a gift from God. Behind these titles lies a story of personal trials transformed into a powerful testimony of God’s unending grace. “I turned my test into a testimony,” she shares, “empowering women to embrace God’s purpose and destiny for them.”
As a young girl, Dr. Ebonee dreamt of becoming an OBGYN. By 25, she was a mother of six, contending with homelessness and living on welfare. But despite these adversities, she clung tightly to her God-given goals, pursuing her passion for nursing, a profession she believes is a calling from God. “Nurses are, as we see with COVID, the chosen ones,” she affirms.
Faith in God is the foundation of Dr. Ebonee’s life. “I trust God,” she proclaims with conviction. Her faith was her anchor when she was at her lowest, sleeping in her car with her six children. She believes that she didn’t face her struggles for herself alone but for a larger, divine purpose. She recounts her journey through her trials and tribulations in her personal memoir, The Grit, The Grind and The Glory. The book is a candid and truthful account of her triumphs over adversity, where she shares her pain, strength, and wisdom with her readers. Her words are empowering and inspiring, and the stories are unforgettable. It is highly recommended for anyone searching for a motivating and thought-provoking read.
Moving forward, Dr. Ebonee’s vision is divinely clear. She is called to transform the narrative around women’s empowerment and sisterhood. Her goal, inspired by God, is to unite women in their diversity, fostering a community of authentic relationships free from worldly pressures.
She has created the Push Brunch (Pray Until Something Happens) platform for women to fulfill this divine calling, which she calls the “diamond in the rough.” These women, often overlooked by the world, have inspirational stories to share, stories that can inspire and transform lives in God’s name. Dr. Ebonee is providing them a platform to voice their experiences and find healing through storytelling.
In 2024 and beyond, Dr. Ebonee sees her platform as a divine instrument to inspire and empower others. She is dedicated to changing narratives and ensuring every voice is heard, all for the greater glory of God. With firm conviction, she says, “There is glory through your story.”
As one of the Women to Watch in 2024, Dr. Ebonee Gresham is more than a woman of substance; she is a vessel of God’s strength and determination. Her story is a testament to the power of faith, resilience, and the transformative power of God’s grace. As we look towards the future, one thing is clear: Dr. Ebonee is not just a woman to watch but to admire, learn from, and draw inspiration from. Her voice, echoing God’s love and grace, will continue to resonate and inspire.
