Shereka is the co-founder of Family Strategists, LLC, author of Proceeding from Pain to Purpose: To Embark on Your Destiny Workbook, and host of the Peace, Purpose, and Prosperity Podcast. She is passionate about empowering individuals to find a sense of peace and purpose in their lives by intentionally practicing self-care, self-compassion, and self-love. ​ ​ Shereka has been a professional life coach for over 8 years, and recently she became a Certified Life Coach Trainer. She earned her initial life coaching certification from The Certified Life Coach Institute. She received specialized training through Driven Universal, The Academy for Coaching Parents International, Transformation Academy, Lisa Powers Health & Wellness, The Priority Academy, and Formidable Coaching Institute. Areas of specialization include: Resilience Coaching, Life Coaching for Parents & Families, Spiritual Life Coaching, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Reiki I & II, and meditation. Shereka was recently certified in Children's Yoga through YogaRenew.    Aside from life coaching, Shereka has spent many years giving back to her local community as a violence prevention educator specializing in healthy relationships and social-emotional learning for youth. Shereka has facilitated workshops for elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, universities, churches, shelters, teen centers, summer camps, foster care programs, and other youth-serving organizations. ​ Shereka decided to become a plant mom in the middle of the pandemic. It was a great way to bring the peace and a piece of the outdoors inside of her home when masks were required outside. Learning to care for plants became a new way to bond with her children, Brian and Olivia, and her husband Chris. As an added bonus, having her plant babies in the background of her virtual coaching sessions, brightened up the moods of Shereka's clients. ​ ​
