About me
I am passionate about dying with NO REGRETS!
- Introduction: I am a Change Catalyst and Execution Coach. I am passionate about purpose and living with intention. For individuals and teams that are ready, we co-create a safe space, ask the right questions to help you understand and challenge your current state/perspective and practice mindfulness, we listen and mobilize change/action to get you closer to your goals. I am the secret sauce to helping individuals who refuse to die with a dream in their hearts!
- Background: I was born in the beautiful island of Jamaica. I was a high school Math & Science teacher for a couple years then later migrated to the US where I studied Engineering. I have been in corporate America for over a decade, relocated my family (husband and 3 sons) to 5 different states as I took on roles with increasing responsibility. Today, I am an Inclusion & Diversity Transformation Leader where I facilitate the co-creation of an environment that enables courageous conversations, grace and authenticity to thrive. I want to extend these opportunities to my community, share the concepts I have learned throughout the years and provide a safe support system for the journey ahead.
- My Approach: We do this through 2 major avenues – sharing our stories through video blog interviews and personal development workshops at an annual retreat. We have been sharing our stories for over 2 years through “Catchup” (interviews with former schoolmates and faculty) and “Shared Xperiences” (deeper discussion on meaningful topics). The My Story Retreat is held annually with 3 components – we Grow through the workshop, we Give Back through a volunteer project and we absolutely have Fun through excursions. We have reconnected people who have not seen each other in over 2 decades; introduced new people with powerful inspiring stories; started a support system and a forum to discuss and address critical issues that affect us all. We started a movement…#What’sYourStory #OwnYourStory #ShareYourStory.
- My Dream: I want to provide a framework that will allow us to live intentionally and to create a story that will make us proud. In full transparency, for the last 5 years my attendance to funerals have increased tremendously. Funerals of friends and family members who passed away and never fully lived. My intention is to help those still alive that don’t want to suffer the same fate. I want to help my community decrease the gap between who they are now and who they desire to become.
