Meet Coach Kia

My Foundation

Hey Shero! Thank you for taking the time to learn about The SHERO Society.

I want you to know that my work was not born from theory alone. It was shaped by lived experience, faith, and the unshakable belief that a little tenacity goes a long way.

I learned early how to overcome tenacious moments in my life. As a teenage mother at fifteen — and a free-spirited wanderer learning through experience — life became my teacher. I faced circumstances that could have easily defined my future. Instead, I chose discipline. I chose belief. I chose purpose.

That decision marked the beginning of a lifelong commitment to growth — even when things were hard.

With a strong support system and what I now call my tenacious transformer spirit, I graduated on time as a top-ten student. At nineteen, I completed Practical Nursing School and became the first African American woman to win the National Health Occupations Students of America “Medical Spelling” competition.

In the years that followed — while raising three more children and building my marriage — I earned a bachelor’s degree in Africana Studies from UNC Charlotte, and later a master’s degree in Human Services Counseling with a specialization in Life Coaching from Liberty University, graduating Summa Cum Laude.

I don’t share these milestones to impress you. I share them to honor the commitment I made to myself: that my challenges would not define me or limit the life I was capable of building.

The Work

I bring that same tenacity into my work today.

Over the past 25 years, I’ve supported teenage mothers, educated students, advocated for families, and helped women navigate life transitions.

And across every role, two things became very clear to me.

First, I naturally fight for the underestimated — probably because I understand their power.

Second, people don’t struggle because they’re broken. They struggle because they’re disconnected from their values, their identity, and their purpose. That disconnection can come from generational patterns, social environments, life disruptions, or trauma.

When it lingers, it shows up as emotional exhaustion, physical strain, and lives that feel misaligned.

That’s why I created Tenacious Moments Coaching. It was my response to the pain and maladaptive patterns I kept seeing. I wanted women to know that with the right support, they could overcome any perceived limitation they were facing.

The Vision

Although the heart of the work is the same, the mission has expanded.

As a faith-filled woman, I felt called to create more than a coaching service, but also a container for transformation.

Women didn’t just need advice.
They needed space.
Structure.
Integration.

That realization gave birth to The SHERO Society for Healing, Health & Happiness.

The SHERO Society is a holistic wellness ecosystem designed to support transformation across mind, body, soul, and spirit. Through guided journals, transformational coaching experiences, mentorship pathways, and intentional community, women are invited to reconnect with themselves and build lives rooted in alignment rather than performance.

I serve as the coach and architect of the container — creating environments where awareness deepens, identity is renewed, and alignment becomes embodied. The transformation belongs to the woman doing the work.

This is a long-term vision, grounded in thoughtful structure, sustainable growth, and integrated living.

And if you’re reading this thinking, “This feels like what I’ve been looking for” — then yes, I’m talking to you.

Wherever you are in your journey, I’m honored to walk alongside you.
