​Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, Leila Taraneh discovered her God-given gift for singing at just two years old and began performing publicly by age five. Rooted deeply in her church upbringing, Leila developed a strong foundation in faith, worship, and ministry, shaping her into the dynamic Christian singer and worship leader she is today.

 

With a passion for empowering women, Leila founded The Official Ladies Lounge, a faith-centered women’s organization dedicated to supporting the TOTAL woman—physically, spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and financially. Her background in business and finance, combined with her leadership in ministry, allows Leila to blend business insight with ministry impact to help women thrive in every area of life and serve with wisdom, practicality, and spiritual depth.

​

Over the years, she has gained extensive experience working alongside nationally renowned recording artists and operating in influential ministry positions, including worship pastor and worship leader. After enduring a traumatic, life-altering event in 2021, she followed God’s voice and stepped boldly into her calling as a solo gospel recording artist. She released her debut single, “I’ll Make It with You,” in 2023, followed by her deeply moving  worship single “I Surrender” in February 2024—songs that reflect resilience, healing, and full surrender to God’s will. 

​

Now stepping into authorship, Leila continues to expand her influence as a Christian author, motivational voice, and faith-based leader, using her testimony, her ministry, and her music to inspire, empower, and restore hope in others.

 

Leila Taraneh is a shining example of what it looks like to walk in purpose, live by faith, and use every God-given gift to make an impact.Through every gift and assignment, her heart remains clear: to honor God, to serve His people with authenticity and grace, and to give back.
