I landed the TEDx in the Fall of 2021 in California by way of a reference. That’s why I believe relationships are so important Immediately, I invested in a coach in preparation for the talk
Honestly, I wasn’t sure what I wanted to speak about for the TEDx. The thing about TEDx is that it’s not about you promoting you It’s about promoting a thought or idea that someone can walk away from feeling they have something practical that they can apply to their life.
My coach suggested that we start with what was going on with me at that time in my life to start narrowing down ideas. I had suffered such much loss just to the TEDx. My grandmother, my mother died, and then my brother died about a month prior to me getting with my coach to prepare I began to talk to my coach, Darryl, about how much we give and how much we do. There are times when as an influencer, we need help too. There, I offered practical tools that everyone can utilize, because everyone is a hero
She suggested that I make it my own. So began to think about the coach I wanted to be. A lot of the time, the coach that you are is who you are. For me, it was I’m a wife and a leader and there are times when it’s hard to balance the two.
As I began to speak at different engagements, I started to have women who wanted to become part of the academy to be coached by be. However, not all of them were wives. I decided to make WIFE an acronym, Women
Influenced Focused and Empowered to lead. Whether you’re running a business or a single mom running your household, you’re a BOSS! This 12week program is now going on year 3.
WifeBoss!
WHAT IS THE WIFE BOSS ACADEMY?
First, let me start by saying that I believe you should invest in yourself. That being said, I had another coach at the time that I was working with to help move past the “church walls” if you will to do more speaking in the market place. While we were working on that element, she asked if I had ever thought about coaching. As an HR Leader, it was what I was already doing. W I F E
