Mary Nastukov
Writer • Speaker • Ministry Leader • Nonprofit Founder
Mary Nastukov is a seasoned storyteller, ministry leader, and advocate for healing and transformation through the power of testimony. With over two decades of experience in church leadership, event planning, and faith-based media, Mary has traveled the country with the Women of Faith Conference, led local ministries, and mentored the next generation through the creation of CultureShock Magazine—a bold, faith-based publication created for teens, by teens.
She is the founder of With Love Anonymous, Inc., a grassroots nonprofit that has supported over 7,000 families with tangible care, compassion, and encouragement since the pandemic. After losing her husband in 2022, Mary co-launched the podcast Becoming Her: Raw and Real, offering a brave space for women to heal through honest conversations about grief, identity, and faith.
At her core, Mary is a writer—committed to gathering real, authentic stories that reveal the love of Christ. She believes we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony (Revelation 12:11), and her life’s work is helping others find their voice and purpose through the truth of their own.
