Hi friends! I'm Shantoria Gallagher-Potts. Wife, Momtie of 3, Pastor, Teacher, Psalmist, Bible Scholar, Lifelong Student, Certified Christian Counselor and Life Coach. I am a lover of people, music, festivals, and anything lime flavored. I am also the founder of The Father's Family Fellowship, a non-profit organization that seeks to restore the communal aspect of the church modeled after the church in Acts. As the founder of Heir's Haven, I'm passionate about helping individuals rediscover their royalty and true identity in Christ by stepping into freedom, healing and truth as God intended.
As a survivor of various forms of trauma and abuse myself, I understand what it feels like to lose your voice, your confidence, and your sense of self. I spent most of my life being burdened and conditioned by lies. These lies entered through various situations with family, relationships, and religion. I soon forgot who I was and found myself only being able to identify with my trauma. When people would ask, "Can you tell me about yourself?" I would instantly start listing my pain instead of sharing who I was. When I realized this, I set out on a quest to debunk the lies that were leading my life by intentionally applying God's truth and receiving his healing. His yoke has proven to be easy and much lighter, like He said! I have since then walked with others on the path of rest and restoration by showing them how to find and apply practical truths in God's word. You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free!
Through biblically grounded wisdom, practical tools, and Christlike compassion, I create a safe, judgment free space where you can lay down every lie, walk boldly in your authentic identity, and reclaim your seat at the table as an heir.
I'm called to the modern-day Mephibosheth (2 Sam 4 & 9)- those who have been dropped by life, by leaders, or by trauma. Left wounded, overlooked, and living beneath the identity God intended. My mission is to call you out of "Lodebar", that place of barrenness and shame, and remind you that your seat at the King's table is still waiting.
Every session is tailored to meet you right where you are, but it won't leave you there -- it's about moving you toward restoration, truth, renewal, and the fact that royalty was always yours in Christ.
I can't wait to walk with you on this journey!
