The Blue Bee Story

 

As a mixed-race, adopted woman I have struggled with knowing who I am and where I fit in this world. I have also moved several times during my life and started from scratch in each new state, managing career transitions and change. Through these many transitions I have learned some awesome lessons and I am delighted to be helping others find and create the work and life they want.

 

The greatest and most sustainable path to success comes from gaining clarity, inner-strength and enlightenment. You must know yourself in order to know how to navigate change. The core of the human experience is developed mentally, physically, and spiritually. All impact our behaviors, choices, decisions, and actions.  Through coaching I love helping women gain new tools, strategies and insights to manage change. 

 

At Blue Bee, you will find that all of these elements are supported. What grounds this firm is faith, belief in our inner strength, and the desire to elevate opportunities for women. 

 

How does this help you? You won't be alone on the journey. Your coach is your personal "partner for success." You will have nonjudgmental, positive, professional support helping you gain clarity about yourself and what really matters to you, while you are moving in an intentional direction towards your goals.  

​

Together we will...

• explore how  your core values align with your goals, 

• discover what makes you uniquely equipped to do what you want to do,

• set focused intentions, clear expectations and audacious goals,

• manage setbacks and fear, to become more creative and open to testing new ideas,

• learn how to prepare for changes, amplify natural skills, talents and leadership strengths.

Giving is a part of my core values and being of service "fills my cup."  I currently serve as a Leadership Coach for the McColl School of Business at Queens University of Charlotte supporting graduate students.
