Welcome to The Achievement Group, Inc. (TAG)
Educating Kids for Life – In Every Way That Matters
At TAG, our mission is to prepare our youth for a bright and successful future by equipping them with the essential life skills they need to thrive—not just in schools, but in everyday life. We go beyond traditional academics and introduce trauma-informed teachings by offering engaging workshops, interactive classes, and innovative materials that empower our youth to master their emotions, build unshakable confidence, solve problems creatively, promote racial equity, and navigate personal and professional relationships with clarity. By filling the gap left by traditional education, TAG ensures that every youth we serve is ready to embrace life's challenges with grace and positivity. We educate for life, in every way that matters.
We also believe that in order to make our communities stronger and peaceful we start with the youth, who can become the leaders of tomorrow. We reach and educate families, teachers, schools and other agencies about the HIDDEN blocks to success including subconscious limiting beliefs, lack of clarity about goals, trauma--what it is and how it affects education and performance and how to overcome the struggles and bring out the best in yourself. We teach the values of social and emotional mastery through skills and resources that can foster more positive relationships and behavior that everyone should model as good citizens.

"Since the problem is at the subconscious level, the solution

My Story and Why This Matters
Trauma can affect someone's ability to learn and teach accordingly. With my understanding of how the mind works, I help youth, teachers, and families overcome the struggle with limiting belief systems. Here’s Why: Behavior resulting from trauma is directly linked to the beliefs and perceptions that are created because of the trauma. Traumatized individuals are "stuck" usually because of fear. I am very good at understanding fear and how to remove the limiting beliefs and perceptions that keep individuals in fear mode, stuck. That's the strength of what I do. With my extended applied book knowledge and experience, I've overcome my own trauma:
- Being abducted by a man when I was five,
- Seeing my mother try to commit suicide when I was six and again at age eleven.
- Her dying by accidental negligence at the hospital and
- My being signed over as a ward of the court, painfully bouncing from foster home to foster home.
- Having my first terrifying panic attack at age 18 without knowing what it was or having any emotional support. It was horrific.
Despite those struggles, I managed to graduate from a top university with honors. I now help others overcome self-doubt and the brain's negativity bias. I listen to them and empower them to handle their issues and problems with a kindness and compassion that truly deserves recognition and appreciation. I started TAG to ensure that not one person has to face life’s challenges unprepared or alone. Every workshop, every book, every tool we offer is designed to empower to succeed not only academically but in life itself.
