Our Story

In the beginning it was just friends sharing life issues that they were experiencing. What we quickly recognized was that when we were transparent with each other, we were often experiencing similar or the very same thing at different times, frequencies, and durations. We also found that we had each felt alone in our struggle, like no one would understand. It was we when we bravely shared and vented with each other that we realized we were not alone.

For various reasons it seems as though many of us women of color struggle with sharing our lived experiences. For us, it was fear of not being understood and a perceived lack of a space to be comfortably, confidently, unapologetically and bravely honest. So, IAM N.A.K.E.D was founded to be a space for women like us with shared life experiences to come together. A carefully curated community where we could bravely vent, feel heard and seen, find resources, referrals and most importantly support.

What is N.A.K.E.D  

Necessary Acknowledgment of Knowledge in order to Evolve Divinely 

N.A.K.E.D is a boutique coaching and consulting company. We provide transformational life coaching and consulting services specifically tailored towards women of color. We want to address the notion that “women of color must be strong” and we don’t seek outside support because “no one will understand my struggle”. By curating and cultivating a community that is a brave space for women with shared experiences, we hope to break through the barrier for overall wellness, which often leaves us stuck in place and struggling to reach our goals. By offering a brave space where we can be transparent, open, honest, and engaging, we can begin to start having the conversations that foster growth.
