Services include workshop facilitation, group coaching, and 1:1 coaching.
Tell us about you.

What advice do you have for someone just starting out?
Approach this entrepreneurial journey from a place of curiosity, and allow yourself the room and grace to learn. This is by far the best self-development course you will ever take - so show up, do the internal work, and watch your life transform right in front of your eyes.
What is your definition of success?
Fully operating in the purpose for which I was created.
How do you stay motivated? Do you have a routine for staying positive? If so, can you share it?
I depend heavily on my faith to pull me through those "not so great moments" of entrepreneurship. My routine incorporates daily practices such as prayer and worship. I also go on a quarterly food fast to reset (mentally, emotionally, physically, spiritually). I also journal, and workout 3-4 times a week.
What's the one thing you wish someone would have told you when you started your business?
Focus on building a network of like-minded, supportive people. Your network will open doors for you no amount of hard work or "hustle" can.
What books, videos, etc. do you recommend for others?
Think & Grow Rich (Mindset)
The One Thing (Productivity)
The Inside-Out Revolution (Mindset & Self-Esteem)
