Professional coaching is a collaborative, goal-oriented partnership that empowers individuals to achieve personal and professional growth. In coaching, a trained coach works with clients to help them identify their goals, overcome challenges, and take actionable steps toward meaningful change. Unlike therapy, which often addresses past issues, coaching focuses on the present and future, guiding clients to clarify their values, develop skills, and unlock their potential.
At Mind Your Higher Ground, we use a combination of professional coaching, mindset coaching, and healing-centered coaching tailored to support high-achieving Black women in overcoming burnout, reclaiming personal power, and reconnecting with their authentic selves. This holistic approach ensures that clients receive support that is not only goal-oriented but also deeply aligned with personal healing and sustainable growth.
Coaching and therapy serve different purposes. Coaching focuses on personal growth, goal-setting, and taking action to move forward. It’s oriented toward the present and future, helping you identify and achieve specific goals. Therapy, on the other hand, often explores past experiences, trauma, and mental health challenges, focusing on emotional stability and well-being.
In coaching, the focus is on guiding you toward finding your own answers and solutions. A coach acts as a facilitator, helping you identify goals, overcome obstacles, and develop skills. Consulting, however, involves giving specific advice or solutions based on the consultant’s expertise. In coaching, the answers come from within you, while in consulting, they come from the consultant.

This holistic approach ensures that clients receive support that is not only goal-oriented but also deeply aligned with personal healing and sustainable growth.
Unlike traditional coaching, Mind Your Higher Ground centers on the unique experiences, challenges, and cultural dynamics faced by Black women. Our sessions emphasize healing from systemic pressures, reclaiming personal power, and building a supportive community. The program isn’t just about goal-setting; it’s a journey toward healing, holistic well-being and self-empowerment.

The RISE to Higher Ground program is a 12-week transformational journey designed specifically for high-achieving, self-identifying Black women who are ready to overcome burnout, reconnect with their authentic selves, and live a life aligned with their highest potential. Through guided coaching, a supportive sister circle, and holistic wellness practices, this program empowers participants to reclaim their power and build a sustainable toolkit for personal and professional well-being.
This program is specifically designed for self-identifying Black women who are committed to personal growth and well-being. We aim to provide a safe, culturally attuned space for Black women to explore challenges, set boundaries, and embrace their highest selves.
Participants can expect to dedicate about 3-5 hours per week to the program. This includes time for live sessions, reflection exercises, and engagement with your cohort. The program is designed to fit into busy schedules while offering enough structure to facilitate meaningful growth.
The program is structured around 12 progressive sessions, each with a specific theme. We begin with setting intentions, exploring roots, and addressing limiting beliefs, then move into creating empowered identities, setting boundaries, and sustaining growth. This structure helps participants experience a natural progression of self-discovery, healing, and empowerment.
Mind Your Higher Ground unapologetically centers Black women, recognizing that our lived experiences at the intersection of race, gender, and systemic oppression are not just challenges—they are the blueprint for equity and transformation. While our work is rooted in Black women’s healing, we also support BIPOC women navigating similar struggles and organizations committed to leadership sustainability and employee well-being.

Each coaching session provides a safe space for self-reflection, exploration, and growth.

Coaching is highly interactive, and you are encouraged to engage actively, set intentions, and embrace new perspectives.
