ABOUT SHEREKA

After surviving dating violence and sexual assault as a teen, Shereka's life was turned upside down after losing a close family member to domestic violence in her mid-twenties. The unspeakable pain Shereka endured gave her the strength to pursue a life of educating others about the dangers of relationship violence and the need for prevention education. Shereka's purpose led her to a volunteer opportunity at a local domestic violence and sexual assault victims services agency in 2013. In that same year, Shereka started a life coaching practice after receiving certification from the Life Coach Institute of Orange County. Shereka concluded 2013 by publishing Proceeding from Pain to Purpose: To Embark on Your Destiny Workbook.

 

Currently, Shereka spends most of her time with her husband and two children when she is not working as a Rape Prevention and Education Coordinator at Durham Crisis Response Center. Shereka recently graduated with a Master of Social Work from Boston University, a degree she adds to her Master of Human Resources and Bachelor of Arts in Mass Communication. In addition to her educational attainments, Shereka is a Certified Financial Social Worker, Board Certified Credit Consultant and a Certified Credit Score Consultant.

Master of Social Work, M.S. in Human Resources, Certified Life Coach

Once upon a time, I was a depressed, fearful young woman who felt stuck. Issues from my past prevented me from imagining a  better future, and I thought I had no control over my own destiny. While seeking professional help for my unresolved  issues, I realized that my past was only part of my story. After regaining mental clarity and emotional balance, I started living my purpose.

My coaching business allows me to live my dreams, while helping other women of color realize their own. You cannot alter the past, but you have the power to create your future.  I want to be your coach because I believe you can transform your life with the right tools and strategies. Let me help you.

Shereka Dunston is an extremely organized, thoughtful, and adaptable professional. She agreed to come and speak with the Debutantes/Budding Debutantes and parents in my youth organization, The Black Girls' Corner, Inc.™, on the topics of stress management and relaxation. Everyone had fun! 

Shereka Dunston presents valuable information, and distributes informative handouts. I would recommend Shereka Dunston for presentations, workshops, and activities in ANY small or large group setting.
