Hi, I’m Yvette Ward.
I’m a writer, editor, publisher, and creator of Women, Wealth & The Word, a faith-centered framework for building what comes next from your lived experience.
I founded Inspired Eagle Enterprise to create, publish, and develop work that brings together the things I believe we should never have to separate. Things like our faith, financial independence, meaningful work, ownership, purpose, and the wisdom gained through living.
My work includes my writing, publishing, intellectual property, publications, editorial series, and selected business initiatives. I develop ideas through the Women, Wealth, & The Word framework.
At the center of it all is a simple belief that God never asked you to choose.
Live Inspired Started with My Own Need to Keep Going
There have been seasons when I needed encouragement to keep moving forward, and I knew other people did too.
That’s why I started my blog, Live Inspired.
What began as a place to write about faith, life, and encouragement became much larger. Through writing, business, publishing, family, starting over, and living long enough to learn a few things, I began to see how much wisdom we carry because of our lived experiences.
Today, that understanding shapes the work I create through Inspired Eagle Enterprise, Live Inspired Letter, Pushing Up Women, and Women, Wealth & The Word.
I write from a Christian perspective because my faith is not one category of my life. It frames how I live, work, build, decide, and how I “begin again.”
I’ve had an amazing life…not easy…filled with all sorts of experiences.
A Little More About Me
I’m Alabama born and raised…
but life has taken me far beyond home.
I’ve lived, visited, and worked across the United States—from Massachusetts to California to Florida and many states in between—and I’ve also lived and worked in Germany.
I enjoy traveling, experiencing different cultures, writing, reading, and learning. That curiosity shows up in my work too. I’m always interested in what people have lived, what they have learned, and what they are building from it.
What I’m Building
Inspired Eagle Enterprise™ is the company through which I create and develop my writing, publishing, intellectual property, editorial work, and selected business initiatives.
Women, Wealth & The Word™ is my overarching framework for helping women build what comes next without separating their faith from their decisions about life, work, money, ownership, and purpose.
Inspired Eagle Publishing™ is the publishing imprint through which I publish my books and related works.
Live Inspired Letter is where I write regularly about faith, life, money, work, family, purpose, and what we learn from living.
Pushing Up Women is my editorial series that puts the Women pillar into practice by making visible women’s stories, wisdom, work, leadership, and what they are building.
Business Has Always Been Personal to Me
Some of the most important business lessons I have learned have come from building alongside my own family.
My daughters have created businesses and intellectual property of their own, including Winners Win, LLC, Crown Me Wig Collection, LLC, and Quiet Hours Club. I have served in different roles across those businesses—as a partner, consultant, editor, publisher, strategist, and sometimes simply as Mom.
Those experiences continue to shape how I think about ownership, recurring revenue, intellectual property, meaningful work, family enterprise, and legacy.
They also give me real-world places to practice what I teach through Women, Wealth & The Word. We are not discussing ownership in theory. We are building it.
It’s my dream that one day my son will start a business of his own and invite me in to collaborate, as well.
Here’s how to learn more about each of the businesses:
Building What Comes Next
I have built, started over, changed directions, helped other people build, watched ideas succeed and fail, written books, published stories, raised a family, worked in corporate America, and learned that very little of what we live is wasted.
That is why I care so deeply about what women do with their lived experience.
You do not have to discard what came before in order to build what comes next. You can bring the wisdom, skills, lessons, faith, relationships, and even the hard seasons with you.
There is still more to build.
