About Us

Empowering the Whole Person

Rooted in the legacy of the Middle Passage—a journey marked by unimaginable hardship and profound resilience—Safe Passage Coaching was born from a commitment to resilience, transformation, and liberation. We honor the strength of those who endured forced slavery and generational trauma by guiding today’s leaders, professionals, and couples through their own journeys of growth and self-determination.

We specialize in empowering BIPOC and marginalized individuals and communities through human-centered, holistic coaching services:

Leadership Development – Cultivating the clarity, confidence, and capacity to lead with authenticity and impact.
Career Transformation – Aligning professional paths with personal values and long-term vision.
Relational Well-being – Supporting individuals and partners in building trust, navigating change, and growing together.
Life Coaching – Guiding individuals through personal transitions, helping them reconnect with their values, clarify their vision, and live with greater intention and purpose.

Our approach is grounded in deep empathy, cultural awareness, and the belief that sustainable growth begins with the whole person. Whether you're navigating a career pivot, stepping into leadership, or strengthening your relationships, our coaching is designed to honor your lived experience and unlock your full potential—with the support of a certified trauma-informed coach and PCC level ICF-certified coach.

At Safe Passage Coaching, we don’t just help you move forward—we walk with you as you reclaim your power, rewrite your story, and chart a path toward a future defined by purpose, clarity, and connection.

Why Safe Passage Coaching?

At Safe Passage Coaching, we believe human transformation are not luxury— It's our birthright. Rooted in the legacy of the Middle Passage, our work honors the resilience of those who endured unimaginable hardship and uplifts those reclaiming their power today.

We walk alongside leaders, professionals, and couples—especially from BIPOC and marginalized communities—as they navigate life’s most meaningful transitions. Whether stepping into leadership, seeking deeper connection, or aligning life with purpose, we meet you where you are—with dignity, clarity, and compassion.

Our coaching is holistic, human-centered, and liberation-focused. We support the whole person—mind, heart, and spirit—through four core pathways:

Lead with Clarity
Step into leadership with confidence, authenticity, and the capacity to create meaningful impact in evolving environments.
Align with Purpose
Navigate career transitions with insight and strategy that align your work with your values, strengths, and long-term vision.
Connect with Intention
Strengthen relationships—personal or professional—through honest dialogue, mutual growth, and deeper connection.
Live with Intention
Reconnect with your values, clarify your vision, and make empowered choices that lead to a more authentic, fulfilling life.

While not therapy, our coaching is profoundly therapeutic in how it creates safety, fosters transformation, and honors the whole person. We recognize that many clients carry stories shaped by adversity, oppression, or emotional wounding—and we partner with you from a place compassion, not correction.

Core principles of our trauma-informed approach include:

🛡️ Safety First – Emotional, physical, and cultural safety are foundational.
🤝 Trust & Transparency – We build deep rapport through clarity and consistency.
💪 Empowerment over Rescue – We don’t fix or diagnose—we help you reclaim your strength.
🗣️ Choice & Voice – You set the pace, the goals, and the path forward.
🌍 Cultural Humility – We honor systemic and generational trauma, especially in BIPOC and marginalized communities.

This isn’t a layer we apply—it’s the foundation we build from. Our trauma-informed, liberation-centered lens shapes every conversation, every question, and every step of the journey. It’s what makes our coaching not only effective, but culturally attuned, and powerfully transformative.
