Hello
Hello! My name is Karla Dennis, and I would be honored to be your mentor, coach, teacher, or consultant. Helping people grow isn’t just something I do—it’s my purpose. I am deeply committed to guiding you toward the life you were created to live.
So why choose me out of all the others out there?
Because I am genuinely passionate about you—your story, your journey, your challenges, and your future. A friend once told me, “I wish your clients knew just how much heart you really have for them.” And she’s right. This isn’t about cashing checks or collecting clients. When you win, I win. When you grow, I grow. Your success is personal to me.
If you’d like to get to know me better before taking the next step, I’d love for you to explore my story below.
My Story
My story begins in the wide-open prairies of South Dakota, where I was born and raised. If you’ve never been, trust me—it’s a place worth visiting. After graduating high school, I packed my bags and headed to Minneapolis to attend North Central University, where I spent five unforgettable years. Those years shaped me in ways I’ll always be grateful for: I gained wisdom, discovered lifelong friends, and began uncovering my purpose. I graduated with a B.A. in Pastoral Studies, ready to step into what God was calling me to.
Shortly after, I moved to Atlanta, Georgia, where I stepped into my first ministry role as the Youth Pastor at Trinity Family Worship Center. That role led to over 15 years of youth ministry, serving in several incredible churches. It was during this season that I learned how to lead, how to serve, and how to create real, lasting impact. Those years didn’t just grow my skills—they shaped my heart.
Then came one of the biggest turning points of my life: in 2019–2020, I felt called to expand my leadership and step into coaching. I enrolled in the Dream Releasing Coaching Program, an ICF-accredited journey that took nearly a year and a half to complete. It stretched me, challenged me, and prepared me to become the kind of coach who sees the whole person—purpose, potential, and promise. Today, I am proud to be a Professional Certified Coach.
The second major game changer was joining the staff at Limitless Church. Serving there as a pastor has stretched me, refined me, and elevated my leadership beyond anything I imagined. The last eight years have hands-down been the most transformative of my life. I’ve gained deeper wisdom, stepped fully into my authentic self, and begun truly walking in my purpose.
Outside of all the amazing ministry and coaching work, here are a few fun things about me:
I absolutely love to read (all kinds of books), leadership is my jam, I am crazy competitive, and I love to play tennis. And I wouldn’t be who I am today without the love and support of the best family and friends a woman could ask for.
That’s a little bit of my story.
Now, I’d love to hear yours—your hopes, your dreams, and the life you’re ready to step into.
