Mandy Salisbury

Mandy Salisbury is an author, entrepreneur, healthcare leader, and vineyard builder whose life has been shaped by faith, perseverance, and a willingness to follow God into the unexpected.

Raised on her family's farm in the Appalachian foothills of Kentucky, Mandy's journey eventually led her from healthcare leadership and business ventures in Texas back to the land where her story began. What started as a simple question about a promise her mother had carried for nearly forty years became an extraordinary journey of faith—and the planting of a vineyard on the very ground her family had called home for generations.

Mandy writes about the places where faith meets real life: the waiting, the laughter, the setbacks, the impossible assignments, and the moments when God reveals that He has been weaving a story all along.

Through her writing, Mandy hopes to encourage others to recognize God's presence in their own journey, trust Him in the process, and discover the purpose hidden within the ordinary moments of life.

She is the author of Grit, Grace, & Grinnin’: Life, Laughter, and Lessons from the Vine Dresser and the founder of Firebrick Vineyard & Winery. Above all, she believes that life is a curriculum—and every season has something to teach us if we're willing to listen.
