Hey I'm Dominique!

About me

I’m Dominique Lewis—a licensed real estate professional, life insurance agent, and proud co-founder of Her Purpose, a faith-based real estate team founded on the values of God, family, business, and work.

I’ve been with my best friend and husband for a total of 23 years, and we’ve raised our three wonderful children. Now that we’re entering the almost empty nest phase, I’m embracing this next chapter by continuing to serve others with purpose and heart. With 3.5 years in real estate and over 20 years of experience in hospitality and customer service, I bring both warmth and professionalism to every client interaction. I believe in truly listening, guiding with integrity, and treating every client like family. Our team offers a combined 23 years of real estate experience, allowing us to support each other—and our clients—with excellence.

I also provide life insurance services, helping families protect their future beyond just buying or selling a home. Coming from a proud military family, I understand the value of planning, stability, and having someone you can trust—especially when relocating.

My faith is the foundation of everything I do. I live by Proverbs 3:5–6 and believe that when you let go and let God, everything begins to align. Whether you're relocating, building new, or just beginning your journey, I’m here to walk alongside you with honesty, care, and clarity every step of the way.

At Her Purpose, we believe in lifting others up and sharing what we know—not gatekeeping. Our mission is to empower, support, and serve every client through faith-filled guidance and real-world expertise.

Hey I'm Stephanie!

About me

Hey girl! There’s SO much I want to tell you—like the kind of stuff you’d spill over coffee with a new bestie. But since I’m short on space, I’m hoping we get to hang out more on the podcast and inside the community where we can really get to know each other!

So here’s a little about me—first things first, I really love Jesus. Like, deep-down, can’t-do-life-without-Him kind of love. Life’s had its fair share of wild twists and turns, but every time I give more of it to Him, I feel more undone—in the best way. He’s just so faithful.

I’m a wife, mama to three amazing young men, and Nana to one sweet little babe. I got into real estate during a season where I needed to be home more with my teenagers—and to my surprise, I totally fell in love with it. Advocacy, negotiating, fighting for what’s fair? I was made for it. People tell me I should’ve been a lawyer, and honestly... they’re not wrong .

I’ve also founded a nonprofit that fights human trafficking and sexual exploitation in our area (a piece of my heart), and two others along the way—one of which has actually become a full-on church now, pastored by some of my favorite humans. So yeah... Jesus and justice run deep in my bones. I can’t wait to share more of my story—and hear yours—as we build the sisterhood you didn’t even know you were craving. I’ll see you in the community, okay?

Big hugs,

Stephanie

Hey

I'm Ruthie!

About me

Here are the real things you need to know about me. First, I love bullet points, so let’s roll:

- I grew up in Aiken, left for 27 years, and I have loved being back in this town!

- Dreams do come true, and my husband and I now live on an 11-acre farm with six Off-Track Thoroughbreds adopted from Aiken Equine Rescue. Four are descendants of Secretariat!

- We’ve been married over 30 years and have four mostly adult kids, plus two mostly adult in-law kids. The empty nest is within sight!

- I drive a Jeep, do the Jeep wave, and love to “duck” other Jeepers.

- I love workouts, Bible studies, beaches, naps, and cooking.

- More fun facts: I taught special education, owned a gym, and firmly believe cowboy boots go with everything.

- I can keep a plant alive. Mostly.

- After a rocky start to my real estate career, I now know that when we are grounded in our God-given calling and lean into our gifts and talents, both our business and personal life can thrive—without the burnout. I can’t wait to join forces to find that alignment!

Hey I'm Erin!

About me

Hey friend, I’m Erin — a former broker-owner turned faith-forward entrepreneur who once chased success so hard, I nearly lost myself.

I sold $40 million a year in real estate while quietly battling chronic illness behind the scenes. No matter what I tried — doctors, diets, treatments — nothing worked. The sickness wasn’t just in my body anymore; it was stealing my hope.

Then came November 2022. At my lowest point, in tears and exhaustion, God met me. Not with a plan, but with His presence. That day, He lifted half my illness — and all my hopelessness. Everything changed. Healing began, and so did a new way of living: with God, not for my own glory.

Today, I help others do the same — saying yes to God in their health, home, and calling.

I live in sweet Anderson, South Carolina, soaking up lake days with my husband and two daughters. We flip homes not just for profit, but for purpose — employing men in recovery and watching houses (and lives) be restored.

We also invest in short-term rentals — 13 at the moment — using real estate as a tool for financial freedom with purpose. I teach others how to build wealth God’s way, where money, time, and location no longer limit what you can say yes to. If we were grabbing coffee, I’d want to hear your story. But since we’re here — consider this your invitation.

Let’s grow together. Dream together. And build lives that reflect the One who made us.

✨ Let’s walk in purpose — together.
