Lacy Fields: Tell Your Story

In honor of National Entrepreneurship Day, we continue to celebrate the amazing entrepreneurial minded women in my community, particularly highlighting those in my signature coaching program, Purpose 2 Platform. There are so many great stories and testimonies of women who have used their trials to propel them into their purpose.   When women show up and support each other, it’s incredible to watch them embrace sisterhood and help each other climb. Today is the second day of entrepreneurial greatness, and our guest is a purpose chaser who not only transformed the lives of the women in the Purpose 2 Platform program, but she utilizes her strengths and superpowers to help purpose driven women create transformational courses using their story.   Teen mom turned Course Mentor, Lacy Fields, created her award-winning mentoring program, U Go Girl, 10 years ago in her basement. After years of mentoring teen girls, designing youth curriculum and helping other women do the same, Lacy is now using her curriculum design skills to help purpose driven women create transformational courses using their story.   Equipped with her own story of triumphing over trauma, Lacy has not let her past stand in her way. Earning degrees and certificates in the fields of marketing, human services, coaching, holistic therapies, and presently clinical Mental Health, Lacy is more than prepared to complete her mission of helping women use their expertise to provide value in the marketplace.
