Professional You as your life coach!



As your life coach I will support and empower YOU to achieve your goals, dreams and objectives to finding the right career for you. As your mentor I will see to it that you will succeed and fulfill your dream career.  I will engage you in deep meaningful conversations; ask you powerful questions helping you realize what exact career it is you want and how to achieve it. As your coach I am not here to interfere with your life; however, I am here to coach you on how to achieve your goal and see the world differently. This will not happen overnight we will look forward, stay focused and enjoy life.

My sessions:
As a life coach I do take it seriously as I did walking across the stage with my degree in social work. Everything is highly confidential and there needs to be trust for them to work effectively.  As I previously mentioned there will be a lot of questions asked and that is to help me understand where you are and where you want to go with your career. I do not care about your past or where you come from only where you are now and where you want to be. I do highly recommend having a GED; if you do not have one that is okay I have the contacts and resources to help you with that as well.

My cost:
I am offering my services for free to those in need as long as you participate and show you are worthy of it.

Step One: Gain your interview attire!

The first part of taking that step towards gaining the perfect career for you is to dress the part. Yes you can go into any outlet or clearance store to buy a suit, but is it going to be the right fit?

Ladies....We are chameleons and can change our look everyday and need to shop as such. The best decision is to find a professional retail store to start building your attire. Start with a simple gray or black suit (JC Penney has some as low as $48.00 a set) and you can grow from there. Find your size suit and buy it! If it is even a size too big it will look frumpy or like you are playing dress up with your mama's clothes and if it is a size too small you will look uncomfortable and tacky not to mention as if you don't take care of yourself. Once you have that perfect fit suit you can then go to an outlet or clearance store and get you some nice dress tops to go underneath (nothing clingy or low cut!). There you have it your first suit and different tops to change it up. Now you have the brand, color and size suit that fits you so you can go back and order more pants or skirts that will come in that exact color! Build that closet ladies!


Gents...You have it pretty simple! Find that professional store that has suits that are best tailored to you and go for it. Keep in mind the same as I told the ladies shop at the same store and brand so you can order more items later and you know they will match exactly! I will also recommend outlet or clearance stores for your dress shirts and ties; that is a great way to build your closet up. Burkes Outlet has a lot of shirt/tie packets that you can find for as low as 1.99! Don't forget your dress socks though for when you sit down.



Becoming a Better You!
