Lives Changed

Through my Wo​rk

My Life’s Story

My personal journey has revolved around working to ​dismantle systems of oppression and that began ​by doing the internal work to unlearn harmful ​biases. I did this through deep community work and ​by dedicating my educational career to these ​issues.

Professionally, as a coach, I bring a wealth of life ​experience and a profound understanding of ​transformation to those I guide.

My Core Values

I believe in the power of transformation. Every ​individual possesses the strength to overcome ​challenges and create a business that reflects ​their personal values. As your coach, I am honored ​to walk beside you on this journey of self-​discovery, offering guidance, support, and a ​roadmap to achieve your goals.

1

Fear of making mistakes

Knowing you want to begin an inclusivity and ​anti-racist journey is one thing, finding a place ​where you can feel safe enough to make ​mistakes is another. I pride myself on ensuring ​all my clients know mistakes are part of the ​proc​ess and they’ll always be supported.

2

Tired of a lack of diversity​

You know your business lacks diversity and ​you’ve tried a myriad of ways to change that ​but nothing seems to work. Part of the ​problem is we often want to jump into action ​without first doing the internal work to make t​hi​s vision a reality.

3

In​formation Overload

We live in an age where there is an abundance ​of resources on DEI and anti-racism, a true ​blessing. At the same time, the sheer amount ​of information can feel overwhelming. Having ​a coach by your side to help you navigate ​these ​issues is invaluable.

4

Le​adership Challenges

Perhaps you do have a diverse team but you’re ​struggling with making everyone feel heard, ​seen, and accepted. This could be a result of ​not being aware of certain cultural differences ​an​d is something that’s easily remedied.
