Family on Purpose
Audra Krell believes in the power family. Be it a single- parent family, an extended village loving their children, a nuclear family or a child-free couple; good families know that each member matters. Her mission is to equip and empower women to be great leaders and equally great followers within their own families.

Audra believes that every family will go from good to great by simply spending a minimum of thirty minutes together, two times a week.

Audra lives in Scottsdale, Arizona with her husband and three teen/tween boys. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and a Diploma in Education from the University of Colorado. She is a freelance writer who just finished her first novel. Her tips and experiences in marriage and parenting have been featured in magazines such as Thriving Family, Momsense, Ages and Stages, and ChristianityToday.com.
