Lakisha’s work has always centered on validating diversity, fostering empowerment, financial literacy, professional development, and promoting self-care advocacy. She is also a certified life coach with expertise in positive self-psychology, personal development, and self-care practices that build resilience. She has over 20 years of experience helping entrepreneurs, couples, and individuals achieve desired professional and personal goals.
As a coach, Lakisha applies many of these same principles. She aims to understand the person outside of the problem and empower her client to do the same. She understands that though she cannot predict outcomes, her approach can foster personal understanding and growth that allows her clients a better opportunity to obtain and maintain change.
