    Self-care is a right, not a privilege. This means that you can have a business you love, without sacrificing your well being in the process. Yes, really. MORE >

    My name is Tikoshia and I am a holistic business coach that specializes in teaching entrepreneurs how to build sustainable and profitable businesses that complement their quality of life — not consume it.

    Running your own business is hard! There’s a never-ending to-do list, long nights, and bouts of fear that can plague you on a daily basis. But, you know what? While all of that can be true, it doesn’t have to overtake you.

    Once upon a time I've tried doing things the imbalanced way. And, right when my coaching practice was starting to take off, I received the most devastating news of my life: I had breast cancer. I knew that if I had made it to the other side of that fight, I would do even more to make my dreams and the dreams of my clients, a reality, but not at the expense of my health. And that’s exactly what I did.

    You can run your business and still enjoy a happy, healthy quality of life. I’m here to show you how.

    In this talk, I will offer support with the following challenges:

    *Need clarity in how to align your business with your spirituality
    *Lack of systems in your business to promote growth
    *Recovering perfectionist, high achiever and/or professional that wants success in your own terms without the guilt of not doing “enough”
    *Want to find the confidence and the faith in yourself to go after their dreams

    THIS TALK BEST SERVES:

    *Professional women (leaders and administrators in higher education)
    *New entrepreneurs (2-3 years’ experience)
    *Aspiring entrepreneurs
    *Conferences and events that are about women in business/entrepreneurship, self-care, wellness, faith based groups

    PRESENTATION FORMAT TYPES:

    *Keynote address
    *Trainings and Workshops
    *Conference Breakout Sessions and Panels
