Erin Van de Voorde is a former Washington, D.C., professional workaholic and current ABW Strategist for The Woman School. She has a heart for human formation and the invaluable dignity of every human person. She has mentored both men and women over the past fifteen years, including three years on a college campus. Both a dreamer and a doer, she recently spent two and a half years living abroad in Krakow, Poland, with her young family. While abroad, they adopted their third son from China. Aside from her husband Pete and three sons, Erin’s greatest loves are coffee, champagne, adventures and a good book. Erin joined The Woman School in 2019 and currently resides in northern Virginia.
Erin is founder and strategist at Davara, providing human formation through coaching from an integrated anthropology and whole-person approach. Her research, project management, formation, and higher-education experience forms her approach to strategic coaching. A native of Wisconsin, Erin studied Politics at Ave Maria University, which led her to Washington, DC.
She held positions in defense policy research at The Heritage Foundation and project management at the law firm Baker Donelson. Later she held two director roles at her alma mater where she managed a department of 60+, including students, which fueled her passion for human formation. Following a life-long dream to live abroad, Erin and her young family moved to Krakow, Poland in 2017 where she served as Vice President on the launch team for The John Paul II Project. She took a career pause to invest in welcoming her 3rd son into the family via international adoption. In 2019 she founded Davara to provide strategic coaching, specializing in mindset and self-worth. She is a certified self-worth strategist at The Woman School. Erin enjoys adventures and traveling with her husband and three sons.

What’s the best part about being a Woman School Strategist and helping women?
Seeing the growth of women, even from week to week, is incredibly rewarding. I have the honor of watching transformation happen and see the growth of internal freedom and how that affects every arena of life.

Why do you believe in this work?
I refuse to believe that the options offered to women today are the only ways for women to live. Harried, desperate, stressed, competing, exhausted, unhealthy and left with feelings of perpetual guilt and unworthiness seem to rule the day. I believe that in the 21st Century we can do better, especially in the realm of preparing and supporting the women who want to be both professionals and mothers.
