Hey, my name is Telia Thurston and I am the founder of Boss Life Mom. I am a certified Christian life coach coming from Empowered Purpose Academy, um, and one of the things that I want to share is that, um, this academy has impacted me tremendously because within a week of me becoming certified and launching my coaching practice, I launched my first ebook, which was something that I spoke about probably 4, 4 or 5 years ago, um, and I finally had the confidence and the know-how to launch that. And so had it not been for without EPA, I probably would not have gotten it done within the timeframe that I did, as well as just having the confidence to go ahead and launch my coaching program. I'm someone who has taken training after training, course after course from various different people, and the thing that sets— excuse me— EPA apart for me is simply the fact that Uh, Shakeeta Torres is just a wealth of information and knowledge, especially with her having a background in therapy. So she's really able to separate the two between therapy and life coaching, and she gives you the knowledge and prepares you in your specific lane, um, depending on what— whatever your niche is. She can help you identify that and start to walk in it confidently. And so why I feel like anyone should take this is if you're someone who is unsure, um, of who you're called to or what you're called to, I do believe that Empower Purpose Academy can help you gain clarity as well as the confidence to, um, launch out and get started. So, um, don't hesitate, get in there. Um, the courses are self-paced So it doesn't matter what your schedule is. I'm a mom of 4, ages 3 through 7, and my husband is military. So there's really no excuse as to why you can't be certified too. So check it out.
