Let's stop burying the lead.

The journey of entrepreneurship and executive leadership is an emotional rollercoaster. It's a path filled with exhilarating highs, disheartening lows, unexpected twists, and challenging turns. While both roles offer incredible opportunities for personal fulfillment, societal impact, and financial gain, they also present unique hurdles.

These challenges are multifaceted, stemming from societal, cultural, and familial expectations, internal obstacles, and systemic inequalities that Black and Brown women face daily. These aspects are often overlooked, downplayed, or even erased from the narrative surrounding entrepreneurship and executive leadership, replaced by glamorized portrayals and misleading messages.

These misrepresentations can fuel a whirlwind of emotions ranging from: excitement, joy, anxiety, fear, frustration, envy, guilt that influence your decisions and actions, ultimately intensifying the highs and lows of the journey. Among these emotions, anger is a common and powerful presence.

What if you?


Allowed yourself to fully experience and express anger without guilt or shame?

Many of us struggle with anger because we've been taught to misinterpret its true nature.

Empowering you to prioritize your wellbeing even when it feels challenging.

Navigate the highs and lows of business ownership or leadership with greater ease, minimizing stress, and maximizing feeling good, functioning well, and fulfilling your full potential.

And, the best part is...

The tangible and intangible benefits that come from working with anger empowerment will allow you to move forward in your journey in exciting new ways.

Anger is a natural response to the challenges and demands you experience.

It's crucial to acknowledge it. It's crucial to recognize it. It's crucial to work with it in the utmost compassionate and empathic ways. Unacknowledged and/or unrecognized anger can have a detrimental impact on your wellbeing and that of your business or organization. It can strain relationships, hinder making empowered choices, and create a toxic environment that stifles growth and innovation.

It's essential to have the strategy, support, and skills that enables you to acknowledge and recognize the many faces of anger, understand its root causes, and channel it in positive ways.  So you get to navigate the emotional complexities of the entrepreneurial and executive journey with greater clarity, ease, and enjoyment.

THANK YOU, GIGI, for being there to help me work through. You may not even know the impact you had…but even a kind word, gesture, acknowledgment of someone can bring the out of their fog, even for a moment long enough to see that there is sunshine and clarity.

I started first working with Gigi in fall of 2018. She was very patient, generous of her time, and gave good advice with me. I now have a job! One would do well to follow her advice and suggestions.
