Unleash (v) : to cause a strong force to be released or become unrestrained
My life has been far from a crystal stair, yet I always had the desire to achieve. As an only child growing up in the backwoods of South Carolina, I was built to dream beyond my circumstances and the path had been made clear for me.
Go to college, get a good job, and make sure to stay in the box that was built for the one who “made it out”.
Looking back, I fought at every chance to escape the box of perfection that plagued me. I knew that a life I could design with my special gifts was just on the other side of simply doing the work. I thought I could, and that was enough to push me towards the life I always dreamt of.
Two degrees, two published books, endless miles of travel and more than a decade of professional experiences I could only dream of bring us to this moment, where I have learned how to continually let go of fear and unleash my greatness into the world. It was not without challenge, and I’m grateful for the gift of grace.
I love to serve, and I have been destined to do this purposeful work of helping entrepreneurs obtain their own versions of success. As a business strategist, I help my clients identify what’s holding them back from reaching their ultimate success? Whether you’re like me and need to release the perceptions that others have about your capabilities or simply need to get out of your own way to push to the next level, or just need to see your challenges as problems that can be solved with strategy, I’m here to help you make that happen!
