Survival got you here.
Performance kept
you going.
BUT NEITHER CAN MAKE YOU WHOLE.
Helping high-achieving Christian women move beyond survival and performance into secure identity in Christ — through mind renewal and spiritual formation.
You don't need more information.
You need formation.
THE UNCOMMON U ™
The Uncommon U™ is a Christ-centered spiritual formation brand. We exist to help women live from their identity in Christ rather than striving to earn it.
The Uncommon U™ was founded on one simple belief: women were never meant to spend their lives merely surviving or performing for acceptance. They were created to live with purpose, confidence, and wholeness. Through Christ-centered transformation coaching, biblical teaching, and practical tools, equipping women to move beyond limiting beliefs, embrace their true identity, and experience lasting transformation—one intentional step at a time.
The Christian life is not about performing for God. It's about allowing Christ to be formed in us.
Until Christ Is Formed in You. Galatians 4:19
"My little children, for whom I am again in the anguish of childbirth until Christ is formed in you!"
Galatians 4:19 (ESV)
Are You Ready to Transform
Your Life?
I believe women were created for more than merely surviving or striving to prove their worth. For too long, many of us have lived from performance instead of purpose, self-doubt instead of confidence, striving instead of wholeness.
As a daughter of the Most High God, my heart is to walk alongside women as they grow in faith, hope, and biblical truth. Through The Uncommon U™, I help women move from surviving to wholeness — until Christ is formed in them.
Whether through one-on-one transformational coaching, community, retreats, workshops, speaking, or practical resources, every offering is designed to help women become who God created them to be.

The uncommon U COACHING
One-on-One Christ-Centered Coaching
Renew your mind. Care for your soul. Live from your true identity in Christ.
Through personalized one-on-one coaching, I help women move beyond survival mode into Christ-centered wholeness.

Together, we focus on mind renewal, soul care, identity in Christ, and practical biblical guidance that helps you walk confidently in your faith, purpose, and calling.
THE UNCOMMON U COMMUNITY
A Christ-Centered Formation Community
Healed Girls Circle is a community of women pursuing Christ together — healing the inner girl so the whole woman can walk in her true identity. Together we renew our minds, grow in spiritual maturity, and encourage one another as Christ is formed in us.
This is a space where survival gives way to surrender, where biblical truth, spiritual formation, authentic community, and accountability come together to cultivate lasting transformation.
The uncommon u podcast

Testimonials
HEAR FROM WOMEN WHO ARE WALKING THE JOURNEY
I'm an accomplished real estate professional, but I was completely ensnared by crippling anxiety. One day you're closing deals, the next day everything falls apart. I was exhausted from trying to stay strong and keep performing while falling apart inside. I was recommended by a friend who had worked with Merline, everything shifted. She didn't just understand my anxiety—she saw beyond it. She saw through the "successful professional" mask I was wearing and spoke to the woman underneath who was barely holding it together. She taught me that my identity wasn't tied to market fluctuations or my last commission check. For the first time, I learned what it meant to rest in who God created me to be, not what I could produce. The anxiety didn't just get managed—it got replaced by genuine peace. Merline didn't just help me cope with the chaos. She helped me find my center in the storm. I'm still in real estate, but now I'm operating from a completely different place inside. — Jennifer R., Real Estate Professional
I was an executive who looked successful on paper but was drowning internally. Stuck in shame, broken identity, hiding behind my achievements while just surviving each day. Working with Merline changed everything. She shame is gone. I'm more aware of who I actually am—not who I thought I had to be. I've learned to surrender to the Lord instead of trying to control everything. For the first time in years, I'm walking a clear path. This isn't just coaching. This is life transformation. Oner of the best investments I've ever made in myself." — BDH., Executive Leader
Merline has a genuine heart for the Lord and has always cared for the wellbeing and success for women. Her life, voice, and presence reflect both compassion and Kingdom Purpose.
