About MWF

Hi, I’m Lakesha.


I am a certified health and life coach, trained in habit change and specializing in creating healthy lifestyles. I received my training from the Health Coach Institute whose training is certified by the International Coach Federation.

I am a lifestyle blogger and Independent Team Beachbody Coach.

Most importantly, I am a wife of 18 plus years. I am the mom of 3 wonderful children and a friend to countless others.

In my professional career in the corporate world, I spent 14 years working for one of the largest international hotel brands. I worked my way up from hotel reservations to managing the accounting department. My organizational skills, planning, budgeting, and time management skills were key to my success. I believe that order and habit training can lead to your success as well.

My passion is family organization as I have been able to run my household and stay on task despite my career, daily challenges, and life's distractions. Three years ago, I retired from the corporate world and now assist with my family’s health practice. I help manage A/R, HR benefits, and some accounting needs. I was able to utilize my corporate experience in the family business, and as a result, we have seen much success.

I’ve been told my entire adult life that being a life coach was my true calling. I felt that I couldn’t help people if my life wasn't perfect. I eventually realized that perfection is impossible as we are all works in progress, and this shouldn’t stop me from pursuing my goals. I have been able to help so many people with a wide range of topics, including family topics like offering motherly and fatherly advice; financial and organizational topics like budgeting and time management, as well as personal issues like mental health strategies. People tend to seek comfort and guidance in me on a regular basis and it makes me feel appreciated and I enjoy doing it.

I decided to become a health coach due to the knowledge that I have acquired over the years as I struggled with my very own weight between each child. I had tried everything you could think of from Weight Watchers, professional nutritionists, and Beachbody programs. I was always successful when I tried to lose weight and at keeping it off; however, life happened. Through the stress that comes along with losing loved ones and everyday life, I began to gain weight again in 2018. I was at the largest I had ever become and could not find the desire to motivate myself to work it off, even though it once was so easy for me to lose weight at a whim. This time, I sought out help from a personal trainer, and in two months, I was back on track. She gave me the desire that I was lacking as I tried to process so much loss in my life. During this time, I started to motivate other women and the people around me again to live healthier lives as well. It’s then when I realized how helping others gave me a feeling that was rewarding. It pushed me to finish my certification and start coaching.

With health and life Coaching, I realized that it all comes together as one:
