Everything you need to thrive is already in you, waiting to be unleashed.

You’re a trailblazer, and since people will always have something to say, I say give them something good to talk about!

You’ve earned the right to be in a career you enjoy and live a life that makes you truly happy and fulfilled.

Isn’t it time you fought for what you wanted and took the bold leaps you know in your gut you’re capable of?

Your fear of failure is real.

AS A WOMAN OF COLOR, YOU’RE TAUGHT THAT FAILURE ISN’T AN OPTION.

You face microaggressions that undermine you professionally, from being interrupted to having your judgment questioned.

AS A FEMALE LEADER, YOUR OPINIONS ARE QUICKLY DISMISSED.

You’re often alone in a leadership role, which makes you stand out and heavily scrutinized for your successes…and mistakes.

AS A SUCCESSFUL BIPOC FEMALE, YOU’RE SCARED OF MAKING A MISTAKE - EVEN A SMALL ONE - BECAUSE YOU’LL BE EMBARRASSED OR OTHERS WILL SECOND GUESS YOUR ABILITIES.

The fear of being judged simply for being different—which is really just being yourself—can feel suffocating.

That’s a lot of pressure.

AND THERE'S WHERE I COME IN.

Hi there! I’m a career and life coach for women of color.

I’M MADJEEN LORTHE, M.ED. ACC.

As a Black immigrant woman, I am intimately aware of the difficulties that women of color endure on a daily basis and through major life transitions.

After 20 years working as a leader and mental health counselor, I decided to make my own major life and career transition and fully embrace my life’s purpose.

I’ve dedicated my career to helping women of color reach their full potential, and my background as a mental health counselor allows me to work through a trauma sensitive lens in doing so.

I believe you’re capable and deserving of a life and career you love, which requires paying attention to the internal process that comes with a big transition, letting go of what used to be, embracing the unknown as opportunity, and taking hold of your new sense of purpose.

I look forward to helping you decide what to change and confidently make those move(s).

“I believe you’re capable and deserving of a life and career you love…”

As a woman of color, you’re not just pivoting into another industry, breaking a glass ceiling, or changing your life. You’re facing tougher hurdles and bigger challenges simply because of your race.

As a Black immigrant woman who left a 20-year career to pursue my dreams, I know how scary it feels to make big leaps. I now also appreciate how worthwhile it is to lean in and embrace the REAL you!

My role as a coach is to help you feel the fear and do it anyway.

You don’t have to stay stuck or play small

You are not defined by what others think

You deserve more growth, wealth & joy!

I’m here to guide and support you every step of the way
