2021-#26 UP CLOSE & PERSONAL W/Tyria D. Jones on BEHALF OF ASPIRING AUTHORS MAGAZINE

Tyria D. Jones 

Tyria D. Jones was born and raised in Pompano Beach, Florida. She is the wife to the love of her life, Kenneith. She and Kenneith have a blended family of 8 amazing children. They are also foster parents to 2 beautiful baby boys. She served in the US Army for six years and went on to earn a bachelor’s degree in Business Management. Tyria is a 3x Amazon Bestselling Author, a Certified Life Purpose Coach and a Motivational Speaker. Tyria struggled most of her life trying to find out who she was; therefore, she lacked self-love. This led her to an abusive relationship/marriage. She lived a life of fear for over 20 years of her life until one day she realized she was created for greater things. Tyria has dedicated her life and personal story to fulfilling God’s purpose of showing other women how they too can heal, live a joyous life, love themselves, and walk in their purpose.

In 2016, Tyria captured the attention of women across the country when she wrote her memoir, A Crown of Beauty for Ashes, in which she shared her personal journey from surviving an abusive marriage and homelessness to living the life of victory in God. The idea to begin a writing career with her own personal experiences came from her husband Kenneith planting a seed and encouraging her to be brave and speak boldly about what God had done in her life.

Tyria has a desire to encourage, support and motivate women in the same struggles. She is passionate about empowering women to be the best version of themselves so they too can live a victorious life. In her newest memoir, Pain to Purpose: Escaping the F.I.R.E. to get to Freedom, Tyria discusses how she was able to pick up the broken pieces of her life once she left her abuser. She shares how she was able to use her past as a stepping stone to propel her to the future that God had waiting for her.

Other works by Tyria include the Broken Chains anthology and the Soul-to-Soul anthology as well as a companion 31-day devotional for A Crown of Beauty for Ashes.
