MBA, George Washington University
I am Abena, the founder and CEO of Empowered Potential International (EPI) and I'm on a mission to help you strategically plan life at work and at home (even in the midst of chaos).
I am a Life Strategist and Organizational Culture Consultant. I am also a widow and a mom who lived through a family crisis that brought my personal and professional lives together in a way that is at the heart of my mission. I draw on my experiences as a consultant and Human-Centered Design (HCD) professional to help you take the right next steps. I can work with you to identify the micro- and macro- actions you can take to get from how you are living today (current state) to the life you want to be living (future state).
I understand the challenges of managing multiple roles because I have lived that experience. Now, I'm on the other side with the emotional bruises and insights that I hope will help others. With my professional training and passion for improving the human experience, I am ready to help you move from mental clutter to clarity to action. Through authentic conversations and visual mapping, I can help you develop a multi-year strategic life or organizational plan, document the milestones to track progress along the way, and partner with you to ensure you are accountable to yourself as you grow. Life has it's own plan and so can you!
EPI conducts life and organizational strategy sessions to help you identify current challenges and develop a multi-step strategic plan for the future. We will document milestones to confirm you’re making progress and serve as your accountability partner to enable your success.
Our vision is to help people who are seeking real change in their personal and professional lives to remove mental clutter, gain clarity, and take action.
Mental Clarity - Our primary goal is to nurture mental spaciousness, providing you with the room and capacity to unlock your greatest potential.
Acceptance - Addressing any problem begins with acceptance. We firmly believe in acknowledging our shared struggles as a crucial step towards confronting them head-on.
Synergy - Collaborative efforts yield results that are more powerful and efficient than individual work. EPI is your partner in conquering life's complexities. We understand that working together will enable you to create a more meaningful and efficient lifestyle.
Rest - In our fast-paced lives, we're often in constant motion, sometimes moving so quickly that we overlook the things that truly matter to us. It's time to prioritize rest, granting us the ability to care for what matters most.
Ambition fuels innovation, empowers growth, and inspires positive change in the lives of countless women striving for balance and success. Despite the circumstances, ambition allows us to prevail against the odds, turning our hopes into reality.
Our mission is to help people develop a strategic life plan, track progress along the way, and serve as an accountability partner. We work with our clients to assess what’s working and what needs to change in their current phase of life. The goal is to help identify the micro- and macro- actions to help them reach their goals, even in the midst of chaos. Life has its own plan and so can you!
