Are you a Black woman, woman of color, or gender expansive leader of color who is:
holding pieces of a vision that you want to clarify and manifest while staying rooted in your values
feeling stuck, burnt out, unsupported, or longing for a reset
longing to lead differently, from your deepest values and vision, instead of inherited conditioning
doubting yourself and feeling uncertain about your direction or your leadership
desiring to heal from internalized oppression
beginning a new project, organization, business, job or chapter in your life
leading a social justice or nonprofit organization and want to uproot oppressive organizational cultural norms and nurture a culture rooted in care, freedom, justice, and liberation
Then coaching is for you.
As your coach, I partner with you to unleash your power and lead from your values with an authentic presence. My approach to coaching is guided by principles of radical Black feminisms and embodiment. With my support, you set intentions for your coaching experience. I walk alongside you with a deep belief in your wholeness. I listen deeply without judgment. I ask you questions to help reveal sources of resilience and deep knowing. I challenge and encourage you to practice accountability and to follow through on your commitments to yourself and others. At times, I may offer you insights or observations to support your intentions.
Our time together gives you a space to breathe and release urgency, perfectionism, busyness, comparison, overwork, and other oppressive cultural norms. We’ll meet via Zoom for one hour once or twice a month, for three to twelve months, depending on your needs. I provide a supportive, confidential, self-focused, practice-oriented space for you to heal, expand and transform. During and after each session, I may offer reflection questions, journaling exercises, body-based practices, assessment tools, oracle card or astrology readings, articles, books, videos, music, and other resources to support your journey. Allow me to support you in being the leader, entrepreneur, or creator you want to be.
Together, we will:
design your life and work around what truly matters to you based on your values, commitments, and desires
accomplish personal, business, leadership, and/or organizational goals
learn to recognize thoughts, habits, and conditions rooted in shame, fear, and oppression when they arise and choose abundance, power, and new possibilities
I’m the coach or mentor for you if you want to…
deepen your commitment to practicing leadership that is rooted in radical Black feminist values and/or another liberatory praxis
bring your full self to the process and have a coach who really tunes into your personality, interests, and needs in how they provide support
generate concrete practices and actions that move you towards consistently living out your vision and values
unleash more power and possibilities by expanding your ability to be more present in your body, with your emotions, and in your relationships
strengthen the connection and alignment between your inner and outer work
