My Story
Chuntae Nicole was born in 1982 in West Palm Beach, Florida. She is the third of four children born in the marriage between her mother and father. She also has other siblings whom she loves and adores. She is known for standing for what is right, not matter the consequences. Chuntae Nicole is serious about her conviction to God and loves justice and equality. Her family moved around a lot, but finally settled in the latter of her childhood years in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania when she was 14 years old. She served in her family’s ministry as an executive secretary, treasurer, Sunday school teacher, president of youth department, worship leader, tutor and director of dance ministry before and after she went away to college.
Chuntae Nicole
Chuntae Nicole graduated from Pennsylvania State University in 2005 with a bachelor of arts degree in Labor and Industrial Relations and a minor in African and African American Studies. She wanted to use her degree to level the playing field and ensure that employees not only knew their rights, but could identify when they fell prey to unfair labor practices in the workplace. While in college she danced for a West African Performing Arts Company, Nommo and performed in song for Essence of Joy Ensemble.
She served 8 years in the military and discharged honorably as a staff sergeant in 2009. In 2008 she gave birth to her daughter, Elizabeth, and shortly afterwards began working for a non-profit drug and alcohol treatment organization as a risk manager, internal auditor, safety manager and instructor. After many years at the organization, she left corporate America and partnered with a full-service financial firm.
All throughout her life, Chuntae Nicole has displayed a heart to mentor and encourage individuals to see their God-given potential, and enable them to leave this earth, as Miles Monroe would say, “empty”.
She recently launched her women’s ministry, “Mary’s Ministry International” and uses this platform to bring inner healing, support and encouragement to all women who need help and want healthy insight on various issues that plague the hearts of women across the world. She is the author of “How I Survived; The Key to Being Set Free” and Founder and CEO of Pure Hearts Ignited, Inc.
She is an inspirational speaker, entrepreneur, mother, advocate of justice and equality and woman of God who is willing to leave the 99 for that 1 that may have gone astray.
Anyone that knows her will concur that she is known for speaking up and speaking her mind, although over the years has learned that a still tongues makes a wise head. Now Chuntae Nicole listens and waits on the leading of the Holy Spirit for direction and continues learning from the One who is a perfect teacher who will leads her and guides her into all truth, her Heavenly Father God.
