Hi, I’m LaShawn Dobbs—the heart behind Divine Purpose Publishing House.
DPPH wasn’t just a business idea—it was a divine calling. In 2013, after a life-changing encounter with God, I received the name Divine Purpose Publishing and the vision behind it. What began as DPP has since evolved into Divine Purpose Publishing House (DPPH)—a sacred space where stories find their home, voices are amplified, and messages are shared with purpose.
My journey in publishing began with my own story—one of healing, transformation, and discovering my voice. That personal process opened my eyes to the challenges authors face: navigating the publishing world, finding trustworthy professionals, and ensuring their stories are shared with excellence. I knew there had to be a better way—and that is why DPPH exists.
At DPPH, we take a relational, heart-centered approach to everything we do. Because publishing isn’t just about books—it’s about messages that change lives. Whether your story comes through the pages of a book, a podcast, a talk, or a creative project, my mission is to help you share it with clarity, confidence, and care.
Beyond publishing, I’m deeply passionate about walking with people through life’s most tender and transformative seasons. As a Certified Life Coach, Trauma-Informed Coach, and Mental Health Coach, I provide support for those navigating divorce, grief, abuse recovery, and major life transitions. Through LaShawnDobbs.com, I offer spiritual journey coaching and inner healing support for those ready to reclaim their voice and begin again with clarity and compassion.
When I’m not walking alongside storytellers, you’ll find me spending time with my family—my husband, children, grandchildren, and our sweet grand dog, Grace. I also love journaling, sipping coffee, and reflecting on the beauty of life’s journey.
If you’d like to connect, I’d love to hear your story.
