The Backstory
Origin Story
Tish Dolby’s path into advocacy is deeply personal, rooted in her own lived experience as a “survivor-leader” who successfully broke through multi-generational cycles of trauma and abuse. After navigating these complex histories herself, she recognized a critical lack of local resources in Northwest Harris County and felt a calling to create the very roadmap she once needed. She turned decades of personal resilience into a professional foundation, launching Power Passion and Purpose to ensure other Houstonians have a safe space to unravel their own stories.
Ideal Clients
Power Passion Purpose is dedicated to empowering women and men who have experienced the heavy weight of trauma, domestic violence, and human trafficking. Tish focuses specifically on those who are ready to move beyond “survival mode” and are seeking a comprehensive, phased approach to regaining their independence. Her heart is with the individuals in the Houston community who feel isolated by their history and are looking for a judgment-free environment where they can build a life of promise.
Core Values
Tish operates on the core belief that “I Choose Me”—a philosophy centered on reclaiming one’s identity and self-worth after it has been stripped away by crisis. She values transparency and relatability, believing that true healing only happens when survivors are met with both professional resources and a leader who understands their journey firsthand. Above all, she is committed to sustainable success, ensuring that her clients don’t just find a temporary shelter, but develop the financial and emotional tools to thrive permanently.
Connected to the Community
The Heart of Her Work Tish Dolby is far more than the founder of a nonprofit; she is a “survivor-leader” who has turned decades of lived experience into a roadmap for others. As a Houston City Beat Community Connector, she fills a critical gap in Northwest Harris County, an area where resources for domestic violence and trauma survivors are often limited or far away. By being transparent about her own journey of breaking multi-generational cycles, she creates a safe, judgment-free space where Houstonians feel empowered to reclaim their lives.
