This time last year when I was creating the Live In Your Light Bootcamp, I had no idea where this journey would take me, but to say that I’m living the life of my dreams would be an understatement. After working in politics for more than 20 years (I got my start as an intern at just 14 years old) I realized recently that I’d been burning out for YEARS.
After losing my election for State Representative in Michigan in 2014 by just 6 votes (and a series of unfortunate events that included my dad passing away one week before said Election Day) my soul felt singed. Everything I thought I knew about myself and politics was turned upside down, and yet still, somehow I still didn’t slow down long enough to catch up with myself.
It took the devastating loss of the 2016 election (I was running a program for the Clinton campaign in Detroit where we lost the state by just 10,000 votes) to inspire me to quit my job, sell everything I owned, and buy a one-way ticket to Malaysia. I spent the next 6 months traveling the world and lived in/visited 15 countries. It’s wild to think that 3 years ago I was dreaming about the life I’m living right now, even though I had NO idea how I’d get here.
At the end of the 2018 election cycle, I was proud to have helped elect some of the most amazing progressive candidates in the country but deep down my soul was calling for me to do something different.
It was calling for me to…
- Find (and keep) the courage not to apply for another job, become my own boss, and pivot away from a career in politics (which scared the shit out of me)
- Create the program and community that I needed when I was struggling but that didn’t exist – yet
- And it was calling for me to take inspired action, even when I didn’t know where it was taking me (can you tell that this has been a recurring theme?)
In just one year, I’ve:
- Gone from bouncing my rent check to generating over $170k in revenue
- Morphed from an overworked solopreneur to having 2 AMAZING virtual employees
- Coached more than 50 badass high achieving Black women around the world
But that’s just one component of my success. I’d spent my entire career soaring professionally but struggling personally, so the transformation in my personal life makes this journey even sweeter:
- I’ve attracted my soul mate partner (with the most loving family)
- Manifested authentic, soul mate friendships with other Black womxn
- And most importantly, my mental/spiritual/emotional health has never been stronger
I can’t tell you how excited I am to announce that the application for the Winter 2020 cohort of the Live In Your Light Bootcamp is now open! Over the next 3 months, I can’t wait to support another amazing group of Black womxn who are ready to transform their lives from the inside out.
