How It Started

In this life, we experience many life stressors and it’s not uncommon for our lives to become unmanageable or hopeless. We become unmotivated, shiftless and lack self esteem and self confidence so much that it affects our relationship with God, ourselves and others. I’ve definitely been there and during that time, I didn’t have the energy to care about gaining control of my life. Although I felt like nothing, those dark areas of my life didn’t make me less of a person. It actually taught me more about myself and God’s pupose for my life.

My coaching sessions reaches people where they are, builds powerful connections and provide resources to help clients achieve their vision and life goals. It’s not easy doing it alone which is why I encourage individuals to network, build positive relationships and join our private group.

Meet the Founder

Hello! I am Tanae Lawal, Founder/CEO, coach and your new BFF. I founded Empowered Being LLC to help other women like me — strong on the outside but silently carrying emotional and spiritual weight — find freedom, healing, and clarity through Christ.

I currently serve as a suicide and crisis hotline specialist, where I’ve helped countless individuals navigate intense emotional pain. That work, combined with my own journey through motherhood, burnout, and spiritual realignment, led me to this calling:
To help women reconnect with their identity in Christ and live whole — mind, body, and spirit. I have a passion to inspire and empower individuals to live a happy and fulfilling life through God’s love and a positive mindset.

What I Believe:

  • Christ is the center of healing and wholeness

  • You don’t have to choose between faith and mental wellness

  • There is beauty and purpose in your process

  • You’re not broken, you’re being refined
