Meet Karma
While I loved working for the past 25 years as a solo practitioner coaching, consulting and celebrating individuals and families through every Season of their SOUL and every Psycle of their Life, I had always secretly harbored a dream of working collaboratively with other WoMen in community. I realized I didn’t need or want to do it all alone anymore. I wanted to experience the pleasure of feeling fully supported on all sides. So, when the opportunity arose for me to transfigure my private practice into the LeoTrio, I did not hesitate. I voiced my vision, trusted the process to show us the way and took that leap of faith, not alone, but with my Wing WoMen firmly by my side. And thanks to that leap of faith, I Affirm M.E. was born. Together, we do even more wonderful work Affirming WoMen in magical ways, helping ourselves and others access the power of Self Love through A.S.E. - A.uthentic S.piritual Self E.mpowerment and Sister Supported Success.
Meet Funmilayo
Though I have relished the rewarding work of strengthening the capacity of organizations to align with their values, scale their impact and increase their effectiveness over the past 20 years, when my Sister, Karma, shared her Divine Inspiration for us to get in formation with our Sister, Lenise, to bring our forces for good together as one, I wasn’t quite sure how it would all play out. But, my curiosity piqued at the prospect of what I Affirm M.E. LLC could mean for me and other women like me. I wasn’t feeling the same passion I once felt for my fundraising work and knew the time was ripe for me to let go of what no longer served me and make a change. I had already accepted the challenge to switch my focus by registering for Lenise’s Focus Switch program when Karma presented the opportunity to follow this Inner Passion awakening inside of me. All I knew was that the thought of it gave me joy and since my name means, “give me joy” in Yoruba, I felt there was something about this adventure speaking directly to me. I didn’t know then that I Affirm M.E. would turn out to be everything I needed, wanted and more. It reignited my desire to be a change maker, connector, and strategic leader whose spark ignites and illuminates a new landscape of what is possible. With I Affirm M.E. I found myself becoming free to unlock and express my full and unlimited potential, enriching myself and my Sisters through reconnecting us with the source of our passion and power to prosper with pleasure.
Meet Lenise
During my years as a youth advocate and workshop facilitator, I realized my efforts would have generational impact if I focused on enlightening the mindset of mothers and women in leadership positions. Within several years of running my own business helping aspiring entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs gain a sense of clarity and direction, the task of global women empowerment became too big to carry out alone. After a mind meld with Karma and Funmilayo, it became clear to me that together we could empower women of all ages to reclaim, restore and rest in their sacred self worth (again). Today, I get to be in my pleasure as my authentic self, working in Our purpose, co-creating safe spaces for self love, sisterhood and support all over the world.
