Wanda Durant, lovingly known as Mama Durant, travels the country sharing her life experience with women of all ages and single mothers.

At the age of 18, Wanda became a teenage mother giving birth to her son Anthony. After marrying Anthony’s father Wanda, now just 21, gave birth to Kevin. Before Kevin’s first birthday, Wanda found herself a young, single mother. Inspired by her young boys and knowing God would lead the way, she dedicated her life and her heart to her children, ultimately sacrificing the most formative years of her life to ensure they had a fighting chance at achieving their goals and dreams.

With her boys now grown into successful men, and after a more than two-decade career with the federal government, Wanda became overwhelmed with a long-ignored desire to find her purpose beyond being a mother. As a woman of faith and a belief in herself and life's achievements, Wanda has chosen to share her life story. It is Wanda’s passion to guide her audience to realize the hope that’s alive inside, encourage them to dream, and help them truly believe they can achieve the future they want.

“Where there is hope, there are possibilities.” -- Mama Durant
