Faith was never meant to make you small.
"You were hired for the boardroom, not the break room."
Valentina Gray is an author, speaker, and faith-driven mentor who teaches women how to partner with God and build what they were born to build. She wrote her first book, Pray Like a CEO, from the middle of the season everyone told her to walk away from — broke, pregnant, watching her mother fight cancer, sitting in a folding chair in a half-built salon with a laptop covered in sawdust.
She kept building on that floor. Today she leads a company, raises her family, and mentors women who are done honoring contracts the Chairman never signed. Her voice is plainspoken, her theology is high, and her strategy is real.

Pray Like a CEO.
A Woman's Guide to Partnering with God and Building What You Were Born to Build
You have been taught to pray like an employee — asking, waiting, hoping someone above you signs off. Pray Like a CEO teaches you to sit down across from the Chairman and lead your life like the boardroom it was always meant to be. Inside, Valentina walks you through the four pillars she teaches at every workshop.
Reintroduce prayer as a daily executive practice, not a weekend accessory.
Learn frameworks for hearing God and making the next right business decision.
Take the room, the mic, and the offer without apologizing for who you are.
Build companies, homes, and ministries designed to outlast the algorithm.
I wrote it from the floor I was building on.
"I built everything I could build while I waited for God to provide what I couldn't."
I wrote this book from the floor of a half-destroyed salon. Six months pregnant. Business partner gone. Bank account at zero. My mother dying of lymphoma. Everyone I loved was telling me to be realistic and walk away.
I couldn't. I knew that building was mine before I signed anything. So I sat in a folding chair with a laptop covered in sawdust and wrote the employee handbook for employees I couldn't afford to hire. I built the website for a business that might never open. I built what I could build while I waited for God to build what I couldn't. Pray Like a CEO is the framework He gave me on that floor. I wrote it so no woman has to figure it out alone again.

What this book will teach you.
How to step into CEO consciousness — and stop operating from the break room of your own life.
How to tear up the contract you never signed and rewrite the one God actually wrote for you.
How to pray the bold, specific prayers you've been too afraid to say out loud.
How to sit across from the Chairman and lead your life like a boardroom, not a group chat.
How to build vision, delegate, and pivot without abandoning what God told you.
How to keep building on the floor when the money, the man, and the plan all fall through.
Stop honoring a contract the Chairman never signed.
