About Sedae!

Sedae Slaughter is a passionate motivational speaker, author, and content creator with a heart for empowering others to live authentically and with purpose. Raised in poverty and moving from Philadelphia, PA to Charlotte, NC at the age of 15, Sedae has always found strength in overcoming adversity. At just 18, she became a mother the day after graduating high school, and her experiences navigating life’s challenges, including being in abusive relationships, have shaped her resilience and dedication to helping others thrive.

With over a decade of experience as an educator and youth mentor, Sedae's work centers on inspiring young minds to embrace their true selves, overcome struggles, and pursue their goals. Holding a Master’s in Christian Education, her mission is to equip others—especially young people—with the tools to succeed in an ever-changing world. Through her nonprofit, Generation Genesis, Sedae offers a valuable online resource hub to support youth and young adults on their journey to self-discovery and empowerment.

As the founder of SincerelySedae, she speaks and writes to encourage individuals to stay rooted in their faith, embrace vulnerability, and shine their light boldly. Her message is clear: "Lighting Up the World—One Sincere Soul at a Time." Whether in the classroom, on stage, or through her content, Sedae is dedicated to helping others build strength, courage, and authenticity... oh, and to help them laugh!

When she’s not speaking, teaching, joking, or writing, Sedae enjoys serving alongside her husband, Pastor Mike Slaughter, and raising their three children with the same love and dedication she pours into her work. Her mission is to inspire individuals to live authentically, empowered by faith, no matter the obstacles they face.
