Discovering one’s purpose can be a transformative endeavor. It is a journey well worth the time, vulnerability, and introspection. Passionate about helping women along the journey to fulfillment, Dr. Kylie Victoria McBride has dedicated her life to mining potential and activating purpose in women from all walks of life. Dr. McBride is an educator, author, speaker, cleric, and founder of Pieces to Peace, an organization committed to educating, inspiring, and empowering women to pursue their goals relentlessly.

She strives to impart this truth to those in her care, helping them eliminate excuses and develop the self-discipline necessary to reach their goals.

Since its inception in 2014, AITP has continually served the surrounding communities through a monthly food pantry distribution, providing food, clothing and spiritual resources to the homeless, and partnering with local schools to provide financial support for student programs.

Recognizing the stress and isolation that often accompanies serving as a pastor, Dr. McBride in 2020 Dr. McBride launched a support group. The Pastors’ PPE (Prayer and Prophesy Experience) offers senior leaders an opportunity to have intimate dialogue, discuss ministry strategies, share testimonies, network and receive spiritual support from peers and guest speakers.
