Pae Murray

I’m Patience, also known as Pae Murray — a singer-songwriter, speaker, author, creative producer, and founder who believes it’s never too late or too soon to believe in impossible dreams.

My life has been shaped by deep wounds and unexpected miracles. When I was just two years old, my mother left. And in 2016, while on vacation in Orlando, I was shot twice and held hostage for three hours during the Pulse Nightclub mass shooting. I never thought I’d walk again — let alone become a mother. But God had a way of creating a beautiful piece of art out of my broken pieces.

Today, I’m a wife, a mother, and a creator who uses her voice to remind others of what’s still possible — even after unimaginable pain.

My latest releases — “Pen Cry” featuring GRAMMY®-nominated poet Ty Scott King, “Where’s The Love,” and “You” — have all been recognized For Your GRAMMY® Consideration in the R&B categories.

Each song reveals a different layer of my heart:

Pen Cry is a healing anthem that blends soul-stirring vocals with spoken word — a message for survivors, truth-tellers, and anyone who’s been silenced too long.
Where’s The Love asks a question that echoes through every generation, reminding us to choose empathy even when love feels lost.
You is a soulful, timeless ballad that honors love in its purest form — simple, spiritual, and deeply felt.

Together, they reflect my mission to create music that moves hearts, restores hope, and reminds us that beauty can rise from brokenness.

I also host Healing Her Halo, a podcast and trauma-informed resource created for women navigating grief, healing, and rebirth. The stories, solo episodes, and expert conversations provide tangible tools and emotional support for survivors and dreamers alike.

Through my creative company, Pages of Poetry Inc., I’m building a home for survivors, creatives, and truth-tellers — a space that honors the power of storytelling and supports healing through art. This work isn’t just about books or music — it’s about legacy. About being heard. About leaving the silence behind.

My journey has taken me from a hospital bed to the GRAMMYs.

I don’t have all the answers, but I know this:

Your story matters. And so does mine.

Every lyric, every episode, every project is part of a greater vision that’s still unfolding — one led by faith, purpose, and divine alignment. If you’ve been through the fire and you’re still standing, you’re already proof that the impossible is possible. And there’s more ahead than you think.
