"I would highly recommend executive coaching and Dare to Lead Training with Lakeya. Her knowledge, integrity, and ability to see the best in you and support you in seeing the same is exceptional. I have been working with Lakeya over the past 6 months as part of a Dare to Lead group and individually through executive coaching. She supported me in setting goals, working through my personal barriers, and seeing the infinite possibilities in my potential. She has a no-nonsense style and will call you out when you are holding yourself back in a way that is supportive and encouraging. She also holds herself to the highest standards and moral code that is essential in today's business world. She's available when you need her in times that are challenging and may need an extra vote of confidence. Hands down, she is the best and I will work with her again in the future!"

"Lakeya is one of those rare coaches and business leaders that has it all. She has a way of communicating with entrepreneurs. In fact, Lakeya leads with the often unsaid, which screams she understands what’s really going on with entrepreneurs from a business and personal perspective. Lakeya’s insights and coaching experience with start-up companies makes her a real stand-out partner for any entrepreneur leader looking to scale their business enterprise and not lose their soul.

"I highly recommend my executive coach, Lakeya Cherry, for anyone looking to improve their self-confidence, become more action-oriented, and think more strategically about their current role and future career trajectory. Working with Lakeya was a transformative experience that helped me grow both professionally and personally. One of the things I appreciated most about working with Lakeya was her ability to push me with a sense of directness while also demonstrating compassion and understanding. She was always there to support me, even when the going got tough, and helped me to see that I wasn't alone in my journey of self-doubt. Through our sessions together, Lakeya helped me to identify my strengths and build upon them, while also pinpointing areas for growth and helping me to develop strategies to improve in those areas. She was always available to answer my questions, provide guidance, and offer encouragement, and I felt confident knowing that I had her support every step of the way. Thanks to Lakeya's coaching, I now feel more self-assured, focused, and empowered to take charge of my career path. I highly recommend Lakeya to anyone who is seeking to grow as a leader, build their self-confidence, and achieve their professional goals."

“I had the great pleasure of working with Dr. Lakeya Cherry as my executive coach for 6 months. Her executive coaching program was based on emotional intelligence, understanding your strengths and areas of improvement, which I genuinely valued. Dr. Cherry worked with me to set SMART goals and a personal development plan, which she supported me along the way to accomplish. Dr. Cherry was my executive coach during a huge transition not only in my professional but personal life. Throughout my executive coaching experience, Dr. Cherry connected me with people whose personal and professional goals aligned with mine, in addition to sending me valuable resources. Dr. Cherry’s executive coaching program has prepared me for the next steps in my professional journey! She is a great accountability partner and candidly drove me to be the best version of myself. I strongly recommend working Dr. Cherry as an executive coach!”

“As a person heavily invested in holistic wellness, I've always been curious about my EQ (Emotional Intelligence). I knew to book an EQ assessment, it would have to be with someone I highly respect and trust, someone who can provide that safe space without reservations or filters. When Lakeya announced that she was now certified in emotional intelligence assessment I knew this was a sign!! My session with Lakeya Cherry, DSW, MSSW, ACC about the results of my EQ assessment was eye-opening and life-changing!!! She was the right mix of boss, coach, and sister!! She was knowledgeable and understood exactly the implications of the results to my lifestyle. Most importantly I felt safe to discuss my assessment beyond the test results.“

"One of the best decisions I made in 2021 was working with Lakeya as my professional coach. The other great decisions I made for myself last year stemmed from our work together. She coached me through a major transition in my career by empowering me with the tools I needed and guiding me with compassion, empathy, fun, and by always asking me the questions I needed to answer."

"Lakeya gave me the tools to clarify who I am, who I want to be, and what I need to get there. Our work together has helped me be more intentional and aligned with my own values, reduced my daily stress, and given me the confidence and tools to make progress toward them. Lakeya is positive and supportive—I always felt like she had my back and my best interests in mind. She goes above and beyond by sending resources and ideas."

"When I began to work with Lakeya, I was at the point of burnout and started struggling to see beyond the daily operational tasks. Let alone find ways to expand our footprint as an agency. This was during the 5th year of my current role as Founder and CEO. Lakeya aided me in moving to a space that allowed for me to view my role from a new perspective through a direct and supportive approach. Ultimately, Lakeya helped me learn the importance of redefining my why. Her methods guided me to rediscover my inner confidence and pushed me beyond my comfort zone. For this, I couldn’t be more thankful. Lakeya is a true expert who leads with passion, knowledge, and intentionality. I would highly recommend working with Lakeya if you want to make impactful changes in the various dimensions of your life."
