Nakiya's Story

Nakiya had a very successful career managing a team in the corporate world before opening her coaching practice. It was her passion for helping those on her team learn to build confidence and thrive in challenging situations that made her want to do more of it. She earned her credentials as a Master Certified Professional Coach and was then trained as a Positive Intelligence Coach. She uses the PQ Operating System as the framework of all of her coaching practices, not to mention, in her own life.

Nakiya loves to work with neurodiverse clients! She herself has self-diagnosed ADHD and has a partner with Autism. While she believes her neurodivergence is a super-power, she acknowledges that not every neurodivergent person feels that way about their own traits. Please don't be afraid to ask for any accomodations if needed.

There are so many unique beliefs and life experiences that shape people into who they are and Nakiya is no exception to that rule. She was born in the early 1980's, came out as a lesbian in 1999, and officially came out as polyamorous by orientation in 2023.

While Nakiya is confident in her ability to coach anyone, she believes strongly that both coach and client should align energetically before working together. This helps ensure that it is the best possible experience for both client and coach.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is professional coaching?

Committing to coaching helps you build confidence, resilience, and belief in your ability to reach your goals. A great coach will hold space for you to dig deep within yourself to discover what is truly possible. More than anything, a coach will help you get from where you are to where you want to be while leaving you firmly in the driver's seat of change. A coach is: a listener, a motivator, a confidant, a sounding board, and a great thought provoker, among other things.

Belief & Balance Professional Coaching believes in providing the highest quality coaching possible. This is done through certifications, continuous training, and a commitment to lifelong learning.

All first time clients are encouraged to start with The Better Together Program which is in a group coaching format of small pods between 2 and 5 people. Our program includes training material that is reviewed individually before weekly group zoom sessions. While mental fitness is strengthened through each small action taken daily, the accountability, vulnerability and exploration within the pods is what makes the program so successful.

One-on-one coaching is delivered to the client through a series of zoom sessions which are approximately 1 hour in length. Sessions can be held weekly or bi-weekly. Positive Intelligence frameworks are used to guide the flow of the sessions. Through thought-provoking discussion, the client gains self-awareness and creates a strategy to take action between sessions. Resilience is built when challenges are faced between sessions and the client is able to modify their approach to the goal. There is accountability by having regular sessions to see what progress was made between meetings. Momentum builds as the client overcomes challenges and continues to work towards their ultimate goal.

It is important for you, the client, to understand that you are the creator of your life and without a true commitment to YOURSELF, much less, the coaching process, you will not see the growth that you are looking for. The coach will NOT give you the "answers" or do the hard things for you. Spoiler alert, YOU doing the hard things is the foundation of personal growth.

What's the catch with the free consultation?

I promise that there's no catch! The client-coach relationship is one that must be built on a foundation of trust and mutual respect. It is important for the client to pick a coach that they can connect with and it is important for the coach to accept clients that they can serve most effectively. You can expect the following from your free consultation:

A detailed explanation of what coaching sessions look like.
Clear expectations of the coach's commitment and yours.
Answers to any other questions you might have about coaching or the coach.
