Meet Rukiya
I stay inspired by faith and hope. I am all Southern. I was born a Georgia peach and raised in the Queen City, but my values are deeply rooted in a small South Carolina farm owned by my late grandparents.
I have always had a lot of words to say, to write, to read and ponder on. I love family, and people everywhere represent that for me in some form. We all belong to a family, or communities, where stories live and come alive as we share and pass down to generations to come. I live to sit at the feet of that wisdom. I never tire of listening to interesting people that grab me, but definitely have a sweet spot for seniors. My intellectual curiosity has been getting the best of me since a very early age, which I now see manifested in my legacy.
I am a proud Mommy-in-Chief. I learn something new every day. I collect life-long lessons and they don’t have to be mine. I find joy in experiencing life fully. I like to fight the good fight for all the right reasons. I vote because people died for me. I pray until something happens. I show up authentically…everywhere and in everything. I do me pretty well.
My superpower lies at the center of human connectivity and storytelling, which has helped me to manifest a rewarding life of enriched experiences, relationships and a fulfilling 23-year career that all beautifully creates a tapestry for me to share with others….
Consider me for your next event or occasion, or for coaching you through your own personal story development! What life lessons have you earned that aren’t benefiting you or others? Are your gifts at work for you, your family or your organization? What are you excited to share with the world as your legacy? Unfolding these personal and professional discoveries with you or your team energize me in ways I can’t explain.
I am looking forward to learning YOUR story next!
