Transforming our relationships to work and ourselves

Who we are

Hi, we’re Terry and Sooah. We met at NYU, both healing from the weight of burnout — high-achieving, but exhausted from working in environments that weren’t set up for our success. We realized that too many women of color feel isolated in their experiences, uncertain where to turn for support. Much of the professional guidance out there isn't created with our nuanced challenges in mind, often leaving us with well-intentioned but impractical advice. We’re on a mission to change that.

Our pillars

We empower our clients to make the radical choice to prioritize their needs while making the journey doable, sustainable, and joyful every step of the way.

Choosing yourself

Finding alignment

We believe finding alignment can foster a deeper self-understanding, build trust, and enhance confidence in decisions to focus on what truly matters.

We are committed to helping clients discover how they can create and transform systems that support humanity and well-being in the workplace.

Centering humanity

We champion connection and seek to create community spaces that uplift, protect, and nurture our collective humanity.

Choosing each other

What We Offer

We Choose Us offers transformational coaching programs specializing in healing from burnout, reframing impostor syndrome, and navigating workplace dynamics that provide women of color with personalized guidance that honors both their unique personal journeys and the broader systemic factors shaping their experiences.

This dual approach extends to our organizational work, where we partner with teams and companies to build truly human-centered workplaces where policies, practices, and everyday interactions combine to improve the lived experiences and professional outcomes for women of color. By addressing both individual empowerment and systemic change, we create comprehensive solutions that recognize how personal growth and organizational transformation must work in tandem to create meaningful impact.

What our clients are saying

Denise S.

Social Worker

“Sooah’s unique openness to 'outside of the box' thinking has been such an asset to me in crafting work life solutions that honor me as a person as well as suit my interests and skill sets.”

Clara K.

Social Media Strategist

“Terry provided both tactical guidance, emotional support and interview coaching that helped me feel prepared for all the challenges that come with figuring out next steps.”

“Terry and Sooah cultivated a thoughtful and fruitful workshop that helped each person leave with the tools to help define/refine their personal brand. A couple of the attendees shared that the prompts in the workshop made them realize what they do and who they are weren't necessarily aligned, which is a huge takeaway.”
