ABOUT STEPHANIE D. MCKENZIE

I came to coaching kicking and screaming after building an award-winning marketing agency, working with celebrity clients such as Lisa Nichols/Chicken Soup for the African-American Soul, Debbie Allen, Shaquille O’Neal, DeVry University, Wrigley’s, and the nationally syndicated Tom Joyner Morning Show to name a few.

I now integrate coaching into brand development, leadership development and marketing as we work with companies that desire to achieve hustle freedom for themselves and their teams.

Our work is multifaceted and focuses on the wellbeing of the organization, its leaders and its bottom line.  Many of our clients are startups or starting out and could easily be distracted by the myths and misconceptions that being productive (busy) inherently means they are on track for being profitable.
