Tracy Ripley is a devoted wife, mother, and multi-award-winning author whose faith was profoundly shaped by her youngest son's congenital heart disease diagnosis. Founder of the Prayerful Warrior movement, Tracy empowers others to let go of anger, embrace forgiveness, and find peace through Christ. Her acclaimed book, Prayerful Warrior Mom , offers an unflinching look at the hidden struggles of CHD families, paired with hope and spiritual resilience.
After nearly 30 years in accounting, Tracy boldly answered a higher calling: to advocate, educate, and empower. Today, she leads a thriving faith-based community, is developing a digital course on healing and forgiveness, and is writing a self-help book series for parents of children with CHD navigating life's toughest storms. Through every endeavor, Tracy's message resonates: even the darkest trials can become powerful testimonies, and faith can turn life's deepest pain into purpose.
This one-on-one interview shares Tracy's background and experience writing Prayerful Warrior Mom: Embracing Faith Through the Storms of Your Child's Congenital Heart Journey.
Tell us about Prayerful Warrior Mom.
Prayerful Warrior Mom is a heartfelt and practical memoir for mothers confronting the devastating reality of a child's congenital heart defect. Drawing deeply from my own journey, I guide readers through the emotional rollercoaster of diagnosis and treatment with raw honesty and vulnerability. This book stands as a powerful testament to unwavering faith, showing how a strong spiritual foundation can fuel the courage and resilience needed to endure overwhelming challenges.
Beyond sharing my story, I address the profound emotional and psychological impact on families, offering actionable strategies to manage stress, sustain hope, and cultivate a positive mindset amid uncertainty. Prayerful Warrior Mom is designed to be a beacon of light and hope, providing both practical guidance and spiritual nourishment for any parent navigating the difficult path of CHD.
What inspired you to write Prayerful Warrior Mom ?
After retiring from a 27-year career in finance, I felt a profound calling to share my family's story, not for myself, but for the countless mothers facing the terrifying reality of a child's congenital heart defect. When my son was born, I longed for a glimpse of hope: proof that, despite the surgeries and hospital stays, a full and joyful childhood was still possible. Prayerful Warrior Mom was born from that desire: to give other parents the reassurance, hope, and practical insight I wish I'd had.
Beyond the book, our mission grew into something larger: to help people discover their inner strength through faith. Through resources like our 7-day Scripture Guide, inspirational content, and an inclusive online community, we aim to empower others to lean into faith, find peace amid chaos, and realize that with God's help, even the most overwhelming challenges can be met with courage and hope.
How did you feel when you found out you received a Book Excellence Award?
Winning a Book Excellence Award has been an incredibly humbling and transformative milestone in my author journey. Beyond the honor itself, the Book Excellence Awards Coaching Program delivered exceptional value-offering expert training, hands-on guidance, and strategic media coverage that far exceeded my expectations. The practical tools and done-for-you resources made it easier to effectively promote my book and expand its reach to a wider audience. For any author seeking to elevate their work and make a lasting impact, the Book Excellence Awards provide not only recognition but a powerful platform for growth and visibility.
How did your background and experience influence your writing?
My writing is deeply rooted in my lived experience and the struggles I faced climbing the corporate ladder while balancing faith, family, and advocating for my child facing a medical crisis.
Growing up in a Christian home provided the spiritual grounding I leaned on most during our darkest moments. But it was the night I nearly lost my five-week-old infant that truly transformed my faith. Alone by his hospital bed, I faced a choice: be consumed by fear or surrender to prayer. Choosing to place my son's life in God's hands was a turning point, a moment that reshaped my relationship with faith and taught me the power of letting go. Whatever the outcome, I trusted Him completely. Looking back, this was a pivotal moment that deepened my faith like never before.
What is one message you would like readers to remember?
There are two key messages that I hope readers carry with them after reading my book.
For one, you are not alone. God is with you, and if you don't know Him, He is always waiting for you to invite Him into your heart to walk this path with you.
The second is the importance of taking care of yourself. We can't pour from an empty cup, and when we're overwhelmed by stress, exhaustion, anger or resentment, we lose our ability to support those we love or succeed in our work.
The real-life lessons I share in Prayerful Warrior Mom will guide you towards healing by surrendering your burdens to God. When you trust in Him, even your darkest moments can be transformed, revealing unexpected miracles and renewed strength to carry on.
