Her Story

Dianna Hobbs began writing in the middle of real life. As a young wife and mother raising four children, she managed the demands of home and homeschool while filling the margins of full days with messages of encouragement. Each one carried the same conviction: even in life’s most overwhelming seasons, God is still at work and purpose is still within reach.

What started quietly in 2007, without an audience or a platform, grew through consistency and conviction. From her kitchen table, she founded Empowering Everyday Women Ministries. Today her writing and teaching reach millions through Your Daily Cup of Inspiration, the podcast she launched in 2016, and EEW Magazine, where she serves as founder and editor-in-chief.

An ordained minister, Dianna has preached the Gospel since age 11. She studies Scripture in the original Hebrew and Greek, then carries what she finds back to everyday women in plain, practical language.

She and Kenya Hobbs, her husband of more than 28 years and her longtime ministry partner, live in Western New York, where together they co-founded the American Alliance for Black Mental Wellness.

“Obedience is your job; the outcome is God’s job.”

Dianna’s Music

Don’t Know Why

In 2024, Dianna released “Don’t Know Why,” a song born from her journey of healing. Five years earlier, a severe allergic reaction to an antibiotic triggered a mini-stroke and more than two dozen seizures, leading to brain trauma.

The music video has passed one million views, carrying a message of hope to listeners around the world.
