TRACI L. DRAPER an author, speaker and entrepreneur (JourneySpeaks, LLC), is passionate about encouraging everyone she encounters… “Let Your JourneySpeak.” As a shy and introverted child, she discovered the Arts; in particular, writing! Putting her thoughts down on paper, sharing her heart and her experiences, not only helped her, but helped others grow and come out of their cocoons. Born with a huge imagination and a counselor’s spirit, she uses these gifts to propel herself and others into a creative and artistic boldness. Traci not only authors books, but she is an editor, (BookTheraphy), and has become a motivational and transformational speaker; who has found new life in helping others live through their journey, by writing it down and walking it out.

​

In 2014, she published her first book (Christian-fiction), “Dancing the Journey,” and has since followed up with three more books in the “Dancing the Journey” series; with more to come. She is delighted to have released her first devotional entitled, “Today’s Journey,” and she is working feverishly on other books and projects like, dance ministry development and health ministry (ZUMBA). She lives in northern Alabama, but takes every opportunity to travel the world in ministry, discovering new things to write and speak about. She looks forward daily to changing lives and changing the world… with the power of her voice and her pen!
