Ongoing support and communications from the family! They are there at any moment you have a question or need a little support and encouragement.

Being around inspired and courageous women who are working towards similar goals! It held me accountable and reinvigorated my desire to take my business seriously.
4. What is something you loved about Coach Training and Leaders Rising?
5. Share something you are currently working on personally or professionally:
I recently sold out my first group coaching program and am rethinking and strategizing how to make the second round better! I’m also in the midst of working on my first short dance film as part of an Artist Residency with the University of Maryland. And cutting out things from my schedule that no longer align with who I am today and where I want to go. I’ve also picked up my love and habit for reading and diving deeper and more intimately in my faith life and spiritual practice.
6. What is something you wish more people knew about you?
How much I care about others.
7. What strategies have you taken to create visibility for yourself and your business?
I recently dabbled in TikTok but have shifted how I approach my podcast – bringing value and vulnerability into all the spaces is the key!
