About Cindy Foote:

Cindy Foote is wife to Christian worship songwriter, Billy Foote, who wrote songs that spread around the globe such as “You Are My King (Amazing Love) (performed and recorded by Passion; Phillips, Craig & Dean and NewSong) , “Sing to the King” (performed and recorded by Passion) and “You Are God Alone” (recorded by Phillips, Craig and Dean).

Billy and Cindy have been married for 24 years and have three daughters; internationally adopted from China, Ethiopia and Haiti. Cindy has been singing since the fourth grade and went to college at Charleston Southern University in her hometown of Charleston, SC with a full vocal scholarship. After graduating Cindy moved to Ft. Worth, TX where she received a Masters Degree in Church and Community Ministries from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and met Billy at a local church.

Together, Billy and Cindy traveled the nation leading worship for hundreds of youth camps, church revivals and events during the first half of their marriage. As well, they recorded many of their own CDs - most still available on digital music platforms.

During that time, Cindy also worked with refugees, hosted a house church in San Antonio, grew a love for diverse cultures/missions/adoption, and led worship all over the country. She has spent the last 16 years raising her daughters (Libby age 16, Gracie age 13 and Sunny age 18) and serving in her local church at Hillside Christian Church in Amarillo, TX.

Cindy is well acquainted with early childhood trauma, as a parent of adopted children, and is Trauma Informed Care (TIC) Certified to be able to communicate and work effectively with students/leaders with trauma backgrounds as related to coaching. Cindy can identify when a client needs counseling rather than, or in addition to, coaching.

Cindy is currently pursuing her second masters degree; a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Columbia International University. In addition, she is the founder and CEO of EmpowerWise Coaching (EWC). EWC offers a variety of coaching and aptitude testing packages for students, adults, leaders and organizations where they can deepen self-awareness, examine thoughts, develop actionable plans and create vision for the future.
