Hi, I'm Diane Canada
Podcast Host, Speaker, Writer,
National TV Commentator
We're not in a political or cultural war, but in a spiritual one between good and evil, and I assure you, there is NO cavalry coming out of Washington, D.C.
I help Christian conservative leaders make sense of disorienting news headlines and craft powerful messaging that makes cultural & spiritual impact.
Tensions were extremely high in our country when I ran for the Tennessee State House of Representatives in 2020. No one can fully prepare you for the vicious public attacks you'll endure when your name goes on the ballot as a Christian conservative in our modern culture.
But that year was particularly challenging during COVID, BLM riots, and the political division plaguing our country and our families. There was a high personal cost to me and many others for taking a stand for Christ.
My background as a business crisis consultant, specializing in women-owned businesses, where I navigated high-pressure situations and counseled leaders through the personal turmoil that accompanied them, proved invaluable.
Similarly, my experience as a professional songwriter came into play in crafting and delivering meaningful and persuasive messaging that captures attention.
But God gets ALL the credit for getting me through that tumultuous race. I finished surprisingly well, at 46%, in a District in the heart of Nashville, which was a third Republican, a third Democrat, and a third Independent.
After running for Office, my former careers as both a crisis consultant and a professional singer/songwriter were repurposed for the political challenges we face today. It is the most fulfilling work I have ever done.
I've had a front row seat to the machine of politics, and without question, our only hope for America is God! We've drifted so far from Him, and we're enduring severe repercussions; therefore, we must reclaim our culture.
True influence stems from authentically engaging with the world in a way that reflects the character of Christ.
This is hard to do when we are wounded warriors, and we lose our influence because of hypocrisy.
So, we must begin by healing within our own hearts and minds if we hope to win theirs. In a culture growing more hostile towards Christians, we need women of faith to Lady Up & Lead our lost culture back to God.
As we become more effective ambassadors for Jesus, we are more capable of navigating and influencing even the most challenging spiritual battlegrounds.

Healing is Key!
Healing is the central theme in my entire body of work because I, too, desperately needed healing. Jesus has carried me through the deepest valleys, healed my heart, and transformed my life.
I want women to know that if He can heal me, He can heal you, and He can heal our country!
I have first-hand experience when it comes to many of the cultural issues that challenge us today:
-
The wake of destruction of the nuclear family
-
The trappings of the feminist movement
-
Being a victim of crime by an illegal migrant
-
Being canceled by friends & family over politics
-
And many more...
Pain drove me into His arms. Loss taught me how to trust Him fully. Mistakes led me to His grace. Forgiveness set me free. Obedience caused blessings to chase me.
This hope is for all who are still lost out there! We influence more effectively when we are healed ourselves and firmly rooted in our faith! We are SO much more effective on the spiritual battleground because we are no longer wounded warriors.

"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose." - Romans 8:28

Music has been a friend and a healer to me throughout my life as I clung to it to help give expression to my pain and make sense of the world. After years of playing the world-famous Bluebird Cafe in Nashville as a professional songwriter, I had a vision for a new show. We toured with it for 7 years and held residencies in the most elegant venues around the country, before the show went to television in 2014.
My show featured a Roster of 35 pro-level Nashville songwriters, reached 100 million U.S. households, and was syndicated for 2 years in 3 countries. I loved every minute of hosting, singing, traveling, taping, and "doing life" with these incredible artists as we worked through our struggles together as friends and passed our healing lessons on to adoring audiences for years.
