My name is Jonnetta Thomas, founder of Purposefully Created a place to find emotional support along with tools to aid with all pressures of life. This holistic site shall offer information for the mind, body and soul. I started this website after offering workshops and classes throughout the community.

By offering these services, I was allowed to see firsthand the struggles presented by many, such as eating disorders, addictions, depression, low self-worth, rejection and powerlessness. I was amazed that they did not see what I saw in them, “A unique individual.” I was also astonished that these individuals were allowing their past trauma and experiences to validate who they were. Their desire to reach out to ask for help prompted me to want to do more.
