I'M MERCEDES
CAREER LOVE COACH & CERTIFIED HR & DEI MANAGER
I've always chosen passion when it came to my career and the work that I do. It's what led me to Human Resources, Diversity & Inclusion, and Career Coaching Black Women.
But in 2018, I found myself hating the company that I used to love and becoming an employee of a toxic workplace that used to be my happy place. And after a year of trying to "stick it out" with an employer that undervalued me - my confidence, mindset, and mental health deteriorated. This story is not unique to me and is a constant for Black Women in Corporate
America.
In 2019, I decided to do better and I transitioned into my dream job and again in 2023 where I am now happy and fulfilled. Now I use the lessons I've learned to help other high-performing Black women, job seekers, fall in LOVE with their careers again.

What my audience says...
"Thank you so much for your assistance, it was truly a blessing and it allowed me to feel more confident about my talents/skills and how to highlight them verbally during the interviewing process. I received another email yesterday morning for a telephone interview on Monday.
I am reinforcing to myself that they contacted me because they already believe I am capable of fulfilling the needs for the position. I am ready for a new chapter."
