About LaKendra Smalley
I’m the Founder and CEO of the Global Institute for Coaches and Entrepreneurs, Inc.
I’m also a Certified Master Coach, an author, and (you guessed it) an educator.
Since 2013, I’ve worked hard (and with all my heart) to help people from all walks of life reconnect with themselves, their vision, and their mission . . . so they can live life on purpose.
At the beginning of my career, I worked with at-risk adults as a Parole Officer. I took a lot of pride in helping my clients envision a bigger, better, and brighter future for themselves . . . as well as guiding them to embody who they needed to be to create that reality.
