Empowering Change and Inspiring Authenticity: The Dual Mission of By Design Consulting, LLC and The Authentic Life, Inc.
In today’s fast-paced world, where both organizations and individuals face challenges that test their resilience and adaptability, my work is driven by a singular purpose: to empower businesses and individuals to thrive through intentionality, strategy, and authenticity. As the proud founder of By Design Consulting, LLC and the nonprofit The Authentic Life, Inc., I wear two hats, each fulfilling a unique mission but united by the desire to create lasting impact.
By Design Consulting, LLC: Transforming Businesses with Purpose
At By Design Consulting, LLC, I partner with businesses to craft solutions tailored to their unique challenges. My work spans Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) strategies, organizational change management, leadership development, and strategic planning. I help businesses uncover their potential to foster inclusive environments, improve team dynamics, and align their goals with their values.
Through workshops, consulting sessions, and targeted initiatives, I guide organizations in creating cultures where every employee feels seen, valued, and equipped to contribute their best. Whether it's assisting with policy reviews, delivering skills-building workshops, or supporting businesses in navigating DEIB complexities, my approach is rooted in strategy and innovation. Together, we don’t just meet challenges; we thrive beyond them.
The Authentic Life, Inc.: Empowering Individuals to Live Authentically
While my work with By Design Consulting focuses on systems and organizations, The Authentic Life, Inc. speaks to my heart’s mission—empowering individuals to live fully and authentically. This nonprofit is a labor of love, dedicated to uplifting women, particularly women of color, by providing tools, resources, and inspiration to navigate life with courage and purpose.
Through workshops, coaching, newsletters, and community-building initiatives, The Authentic Life serves as a beacon for personal growth, emotional intelligence, and self-discovery. It’s about reminding individuals that their stories, identities, and experiences matter. We explore what it means to live authentically and unapologetically, helping individuals cultivate a sense of belonging within themselves and their communities.
I’m thrilled to announce that The Authentic Life Podcast is launching on December 31, 2024! This podcast will be an extension of The Authentic Life’s mission, featuring candid conversations, actionable insights, and stories of resilience and authenticity. Whether you're seeking inspiration or practical tools for personal and professional growth, this podcast is designed to be your go-to source for living life on your terms.
The Intersection of Business and Individual Empowerment
While By Design Consulting transforms organizations and The Authentic Life inspires individuals, there’s a powerful synergy between the two. The work I do helps people find alignment between their personal and professional lives, ensuring that leaders and employees alike can bring their whole selves to their work and personal pursuits.
The challenges organizations face—low morale, lack of diversity, unclear strategies—often stem from the individuals within them not feeling empowered or supported. By bridging these gaps, I create a ripple effect: stronger individuals lead to stronger teams, which build stronger organizations.
Why I Do What I Do
I believe that every business deserves a culture where employees thrive, and every individual deserves to live a life that is true to their values. Whether I’m facilitating a corporate workshop, mentoring a young professional, or leading a retreat for The Authentic Life, my goal is the same: to equip people and organizations with the tools they need to grow, lead, and make meaningful change.
If you’re ready to start designing your business’s success story or embark on the journey of living your most authentic life, let’s connect. Together, we’ll shape a future where success and authenticity go hand in hand.
