MY NAME IS TASHEENA BRAXTON
I coach women of color leaders to grow their visibility, influence and impact by leveraging networks while navigating corporate spaces in any industry or business. I support WOC individually as leaders in 1:1 or a team setting within their organization or businesses.
WHAT I BELIEVE IN
I believe that women of color leaders, don't have to drink the corporate kool-aid to excel as leaders. You can grow your visibility, influence and impact as a leader with the right coaching that help you to achieve your goals - and without burning out!
WHAT I DO
I was a single mother of four children in an entry level role that was barely allowing me to provide for my children. The work that I was doing was not energizing or making me feel complete. I had to code switch, felt constant microaggressions, was under constant scrutiny and my manager micromanaged every thing I did. I never complained because I thought I was being loyal and a good employee, although I was burned out and unhappy.
Until one day, I lit a fire under my ass, invested money I didn't have in a coaching certification course, that my boss didn't want to cover, and eventually became a certified Life Coach. I used that certification to create a seat at the table that took me from Administrative Assistant to a Director level coaching role.
I know firsthand the hoops that women of color have to go through to get to their next level. I got to the next level doing what I love and I am ready to teach you too!
WHO I AM
AND I'M ON A MISSION TO HELP WOMEN OF COLOR STEP INTO LEADERSHIP & CREATE THEIR OWN SEAT AT THE TABLE
Sound familiar?
Now I'm on a mission to disrupt systemic oppression that Women of Color face in the workplace, by helping them to create their own seats at the table. Enough of trying to assimilate to cultures that want you to lose who you are and play small so that they can feel comfortable. Every woman deserves a career that they love and one where they feel liberated from the systems that try to hold them back.
"I see too many Women of Color expected to play small and drink the corporate "kool-aid"...
I stopped trying to fit in a mold, and occupying roles that did not make me happy, and decided instead to create a career path that is aligned to my purpose and honored my values. I went from an Administrative Professional to a Certified Coach and Organizational Development Practitioner, creating the career that I wanted it to be.
For the last 8 years, I have worked as an internal Leadership Coach to Executives and high stakes team. I have led multiple Diversity, Equity & Inclusion teams and initiatives and have taught, mentored and coached employees in corporate environments.
Making this switch in my career wasn't easy. I had to acknowledge my limiting beliefs, heal job trauma, fight back systemic oppression, and stop shape-shifting and playing small.
When I made a shift, I spoke up and stopped being afraid to make my voice heard, show up authentically, set boundaries, and shatter glass ceilings. My faith and my hard work aligned and now when I look back, it was the most courageous thing I could've ever done.
"I honored my values and stopped playing small, hiding, and sending my representative instead of the REAL ME, into rooms designed to see me fail"
I SIMPLIFY YOUR LEADERSHIP JOURNEY NOT COMPLICATE IT
I offer clear, simple strategies to build and leverage networks, boosting your visibility and influence with ease while removing the overwhelm and complexity. You don't have to be an extrovert or spend more time. With an equity-based lens, my coaching ensures you feel supported and safe.
MY APPROACH IS WITH AN EQUITY BASED LENS
For the past 10 years, I have dedicated myself to the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion and Health Equity space, leading ERGs, participating in functional groups, and continuously enhancing my own learning and development. This experience allows me to bring equity-based coaching to teams and organizations effectively.
