My shift happened..

Hey there! I’m Nina D. Roach.  

I believe every transformation starts with a “from” story—mine began in the Windy City of Chicago, where God took me from brokenness to an impactful Kingdom calling. In the dead of winter, 1994, I hit rock bottom—divorced, despairing, and barely clinging to life. That’s where God found me. But that’s not where He left me. Flat on my back in a bed of affliction, I heard His voice in my wilderness.

That moment didn’t just rescue me.
It rebuilt me.
A holy shift began.

Now, my life’s work is to help others rise from what tried to ruin them. I’ve known the grip of shame that silences your voice, the weight of fear that paralyzes your steps, the drain of doubt that makes you question your worth, and the mental fog that clouds your direction. I’ve lived it—and by the power of God, I’ve walked through it. Today, I help others do the same.

Put a burning Word in my heart and a Bible in my hands, and everything shifts. I don’t just speak—I stir. With every God-breathed Word, impartation happens and transformation follows. I’m not here to improve you—I’m here to ignite you. If you’ve ever felt stuck, shattered, or invisible, I’m living proof that God can rewrite your story with power, purpose, and holy fire.

Whether I’m teaching, coaching, preaching, or sitting across the table in a heart-to-heart, I’m all in. Because when the Holy Spirit speaks, something inside you wakes up. That’s what we do here at Shift Today Ministries: we awaken, we align, and we activate.

So if you’re ready to believe again, build something eternal, and become the whole person God designed you to be—you’re in the right place.

From the Chair to the Calling

Before I became a steward of my call, I was a salon owner—an industry pioneer for over 32 years. I didn’t just build beauty businesses from the ground up—I built people. But even then, it was never just about hair. I was doing heart work under the salon dryer, calling out purpose in the broken in the break room, and helping women and men see themselves through God’s eyes.

That sacred space behind the chair became a training ground for the call ahead. I learned to listen deeper, speak life prophetically, and steward stories with compassion and truth. What began as outer transformation became an invitation to awaken inner healing.

I discovered a new kind of beauty—one that lasts. The type that renews the mind, restores the soul, and reflects the glory of God. That season shaped my sensitivity, sharpened my discernment, and prepared me to lead with power and love.

Today, I’m a licensed and ordained minister, teaching pastor, and the founder of Shift Today Ministries—a movement, a mission, and a gathering place for believers who know there’s more and are ready to move forward. Through sermons, devotionals, digital resources, discipleship, broadcasts, and gatherings like Shift Today with Nina D. Roach, I equip others to live whole, love well, and lead wisely—beyond Sunday.

Faith, Family, and Kingdom Impact

I answered the call to ministry in 1995 and never looked back. Trained under the late Apostle Frederick K.C. Price at the Ministry Training Institute, I continued to deepen my biblical foundations to walk worthy of the assignment. In 2012, what began as Mrs. Ministries—a ministry for wives—evolved into Shift Today Ministries: a prophetic voice to the body of Christ and a safe space for “A Company of Believers.”

Beyond the mic and ministry, I’m married to my bestie, Frank (40 years and counting), proud mom to two amazing sons, and I treasure my two beautiful bonus daughters—rockin' moms to our seven grand-loves. I love skating, hiking, warm cups of tea with a good book, and heart-to-heart conversations with my tight circle of girlfriends. My life isn’t perfect—but it’s proof that God’s grace transforms.

Business with a Biblical Blueprint

Even after retiring from the beauty industry, God wasn’t done with me—He just shifted the assignment. He moved me from styling hair to shaping hearts. Today, I continue to serve in the marketplace, not just as a licensed and ordained teaching pastor, but also as a Transformation Success Coach and faith-based business consultant, helping others unlock their God-given potential through Spirit-led strategy. After decades of entrepreneurial success, I now guide individuals, leaders, and visionaries through personalized coaching and consulting where faith meets function and purpose meets profit. Whether you're launching a business, navigating a soul-deep shift, or seeking clarity for your next, I’m here to walk with you—boldly, prayerfully, and strategically—toward results that last and a legacy that matters.

More Than a Ministry

At Shift Today Ministries, we don’t play church—we live transformed. We empower believers to grow in truth boldly, show Christ’s love practically, and live led by the Holy Spirit. Our reach extends beyond the pulpit through charitable partnerships with organizations such as A21, Convoy of Hope, Mercy Ships, Shepherd’s Pantry, and Christians United for Israel, providing humanitarian aid and the tangible love of Jesus to a hurting world.

Because Your Event Matters...

God rewrote the text of my life when I opened the book of my heart to his eyes.
