Marla Albertie - Truth Speaks Coaching

Telling It How It Is: "But you gotta think about you. We all get burnt out. Everybody. I don't I don't care who you are. Everybody has gotten burnt out or will get burnt out."

Every business owner, at some point, gets to start feeling a little burnt out.  This can lead to crazy thoughts, including the dreaded imposter syndrome, or maybe even going back to being an employee (maybe not that bad).

Marla shares her story of transitioning from a career in financial planning to becoming a sought-after coach. She takes us through her journey of discovering her passion for coaching and the certifications she obtained to enhance her skills.

She believes in the power of organic conversations and the transformative partnership between coach and client. As we dive deeper, Marla opens up about the challenges faced by African American women in the workplace and how it can contribute to burnout.
