If you’ve been Googling ‘anyone else feel called to something more than their job’ at 11 PM while everyone else is asleep, you’re in the right place.
I used to be the queen of searching ‘how do you deal with feeling stuck in corporate’ on my lunch breaks. I’d close the tab real quick when someone walked by, like I was looking at something scandalous—because in corporate America, admitting you want more IS scandalous.
Like you, I spent years in corporate, nodding along in meetings, and silently thinking, ‘God has to have more for me than this.’
My wake-up call came during the pandemic, when corporate America showed me exactly how much they valued my humanity.
There I was, an HR Business Partner being told to visit stores where COVID was spreading like wildfire. Mind you, my immunocompromised mama lives with me. When I said ‘no way am I putting my mom’s health at risk,’ did they understand? Girl, please.
So I bounced to a Talent Acquisition role thinking it would be better. WORSE! The stress got so bad I had to take a mental health break—you know it’s serious when your body literally says ‘I QUIT’ before you do.
And the cherry on top? When I returned, my boss was playing games, setting me up to fail like I didn’t see what he was doing. That’s when I decided: God didn’t give me these gifts to be playing corporate chess with people who didn’t value me or my family’s wellbeing.
I resigned and stepped into coaching full-time, because sometimes, sis, God has to make you uncomfortable enough that staying isn’t an option anymore.
This isn’t just some fancy acronym. It’s the exact roadmap that took me from ‘frustrated with lack of purpose in work’ to creating a profitable coaching business that:
And now I’ve helped dozens of women over 40 do the same thing—turn their expertise into purpose-aligned coaching businesses that provide both impact AND security.
Look, I could tell you I do this because I love business models and marketing funnels (which I do).
But the real truth? I do this because I’m tired of seeing faithful, gifted women wasting their God-given talents in corporate environments that drain them, undervalue them, and leave them feeling unfulfilled.
I do this because every time I help a woman transition from that cubicle to coaching, I see her come alive in ways that make it crystal clear: this is what she was made for.
And I suspect that’s true for you too.
You know, when I’m not helping women escape the ‘hate feeling unfulfilled at work’ cycle, you’ll find me:
Caregiver to my sweet mommy (Sunday movie time with my favorite girl is sacred!)
Former tenor sax player (because God has a sense of humor)
That introvert who needs to recharge after big coaching sessions (hello, quiet time!)
I’m an author! I wrote 7 Steps to Achieving Life-Work Harmony: A Step by Step Guide to Realigning Your Life as a Woman Over 40, based on my coaching ministry.
Dream big dreamer (Still manifesting that Super Soul Sunday appearance with Oprah! Well, I guess I’ll have to settle for her YouTube show now)
Watching Living Single, Golden Girls and Catfish superfan (no judgment, please!)
But honestly? My favorite moments are the texts I get from clients saying things like ‘I just signed my first coaching client!’ or ‘I just QUIT MY JOB!’ (Those usually come with about 37 exclamation points.)
God didn’t give you those corporate skills just for that 9-to-5 grind!
