The Peculiar Light
A Habitual Light Spreader
Hey You!
I'm Helen Hargrove AKA HH, or The Peculiar Light. I’m a thirty-something, mental health advocate, lover of my four tiny humans, wife, sister, friend, AND life coach! Or as I like to say, LIGHT coach. I am a graduate of the illustrious North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University with my B.A. in Romance Languages and Literature with a concentration in Spanish. I also hold a Masters in Creative Writing from Full Sail University. I received my certification in professional life coaching through the Tony Gaskins Academy. Throughout all of my schooling and life’s journey, one thing has remained true; helping people navigate this crazy life is what I’ve been called to do.

My Story
Back when I was a single mother struggling to love and find myself; while raising a kid seemingly alone, I knew there had to be more to life. I wasn’t sure how to attain it or where to start but I knew there was more life to live. I realized that I had the power to change the narrative. I remember looking at myself one day and not recognizing the girl looking back in the mirror. It was at that moment when I decided that I had to start working on me.
I once believed that the only option in life was to play the cards I was dealt. Trials such as single parenthood, lack of self-love, and lack of confidence were almost the death of me…. but GOD! I realized that I could have the life I desired If I start by changing my mindset, learn to accept the things I could not change, and start the process of actively the healing.
My Story Continued
Once I started to work on myself, I began to conquer those areas that once held me in bondage. I was able to learn how to co-parent and eventually achieved the blending of my family. I found myself, remained confident, and started building better relationships with those around me. Stepping into my calling became easier when I realized that I was worthy of ALL the good things coming my way. I truly believe that you can conquer any and all things; after all, the Word reminds us that ALL things work together for your good. I changed my confession which completely changed my outcome, which ultimately changed my life.
"You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill that cannot be hidden."
Matthew 5:14
The Light Way Coaching & Consulting, LLC
The Light Way Coaching & Consulting, LLC was birthed from a journey I started in 2016 when I asked God to show me who I was in Him and who He wanted me to be to the world. When I prayed, God led me to two scriptures Matthew 5:14 and 1 Peter 2:9. He showed me that I am unique and I am chosen; called from the darkness of my past into the light (1Peter 2:9). Then with Matthew 5:14, He confirmed for me that I am to use my light to help others. From that moment on, I set out on my journey to encourage all people.
