I am a certified life coach, trainer and mentor with Trauma-Informed Care training. I have learned through my personal and professional journey, trauma is not just about an event but is about how that event has an impacted a person's spirit, soul, and body. After working in corporate for over 16 years, I noticed during sudden changes, layoffs or acquisitions I would feel overwhelmed with fear and stress and yet be expected to perform at the highest level without any support from leadership. After self-reflecting and becoming more self-aware of the organizations, communities and people around me, I realized I wasn't thinking, feeling and acting according to my beliefs and values. I was experiencing organizational trauma and being re-traumatized in corporate but also in the non-profit and religious sector. After many studies and seeking God, I began to learn and understand more about the different types of traumas that a person can go through without being aware of it. but also the generational traumas that are passed down from generation to generation. organizations and individuals being aware of it. Having experienced trauma at a young age, the generational trauma of abandonment and rejection would show up in different areas of my life, career and relationships. Self-awareness and  I am now a trauma survivor, a former overachiever and people pleaser who was able to overcome by seeing myself true identity and purpose in Christ.
