Before we dive in, let me share a bit about me picture this. I was once deep in the corporate rat race, spending over 15 years in the hustle and bustle of the financial services, and human resources world. Sound familiar? Yeah, I get it. The grind the stress, the feeling like something's missing. Been there, done that. But here's the kicker, I found my way out. And it changed everything. It was like a light bulb went off. Suddenly, I wasn't just going through the motions. I was living with purpose on fire with passion, and ready to make a real difference. Hi, I'm Sheryll, your guide on this journey, a seasoned wellness coach with years of experience, and helping folks like you tap into their full potential.

Alright, let's dive into why now is the perfect time for me to share my message. But first, let's take a moment to soak in this truth. Every single day is a chance to get closer to our dreams. Imagine this. What if you truly believed that anything? And I mean, anything is possible. Life gets differently when you embrace that mindset. We are reached that point where we must strip away the layers of who we thought we were to become who were truly meant to be. It's about ditching those negative beliefs, smashing through those self imposed limits, and stepping boldly into our powers. Here's the kicker, what got us here won't necessarily get us where we want to be. Even if you're sitting pretty with your achievements, there's always more to master. Consider this show a wake up call to bust out of your BS, you know your belief systems and comfort zone and open yourself up to all the magic waiting for you. Life is full of surprises and you never know what you might achieve if you just set your mind to it. Now let me get real with you. No matter where you find yourself on life's journey. Know that I understand. Because I've been where you are. I've walked this journey just like you. I faced the doubts, the struggles and the judgment. You see granted was a black girl and one of the toughest neighborhoods in New York City. I faced more than my share of challenges. I was teased, bullied and judged for being different. You know, the streets were tough and the pressure to fit in. Man was relentless. I remember feeling like I had to mold myself into someone else's idea of who I should be just to avoid the constant judgment and teasing. But it wasn't just the external pressures that weighed on me deep down I struggle with my own sense of worth and belonging. The remarks and ridicule from my classmates echoed in my mind chipping away at my confidence with each passing day.

As I navigate to school, I found comfort in my studies and extracurricular activities. You see, I was in a band playing classical flute. I was also in the choir. And though I was on a track team, I had fun running, bred and really have the confidence to know that I can win. But even there, I couldn't escape the whispers and stairs. question of why didn't fit the mold of what a black girl should be. As a result, sometimes it didn't speak up for myself and allow life and circumstances to happen to me. By not amplifying and only my voice. I gave away my power and allowed other people's thoughts and opinions about me to control my mindset. I felt as though I did not matter and that my voice did not matter. In addition, I found myself in situations where my self worth, and self esteem were further compromised. These experiences followed me into adulthood, shaping the way I viewed myself and interacted with the world around me.

In the corporate world, I faced a new set of challenges, navigating office politics, battling impostor syndrome, and fighting to be seen and heard and rooms were often felt like the odd one out. It was during those dark moments of self doubt and uncertainty that I realized something had to change. I couldn't continue living my life on someone else's terms, allowing their words and opinions to dictate my worth and value. I just said it. Enough was enough. So I made a choice, a choice to embrace my uniqueness to stand tall, mid truth. And to reclaim my power. It wasn't easy, and there were plenty of setbacks along the way. But with each obstacle, I faced I emerged stronger and more resilient than before. So the years of self discovery and personal growth, I learned to silence the voices of doubt and negativity that once held me back, I discovered the power of mindset and self worth. And I made a promise to myself, never to let anyone dim my light again. As I owe my voice and stand in my truth, I allow others to show up as their authentic, unique self. That is different, both and brilliant. Now, as a speaker, author and coach, I'm on a mission to empower others to do the same. Because I know firsthand the transformative power of embracing who you are in owning your power. And now more than ever, I believe it's time to share this message with the world.
