Le'Siran Edwards

Very informative and comprehensive.

Coaching with Le’Siran | Greater Chamber of Commerce [Future Faces Mentoring] I was matched with Le’Siran in Aug 2024 and we worked together till Aug 2025, at the time I struggled with perfectionism and leadership pressure. Le’Siran’s Sphere of Influence model helped me focus on what I could control, alleviating stress and increasing clarity. By the second session, I learned to prioritize and communicate assertively, reducing guilt and feeling more confident in delegating. Over the year, I became calmer, grounded, and more trusting of my team. I shifted from seeking external validation to trusting my own ideas and speaking up. I also created a new routine that helped me feel more connected at work. When job instability arose, Le’Siran’s tools helped me regain perspective and manage stress effectively. During conflicts, I refined my communication style, balancing directness with patience. 💬 Proud Moments: - Shifting my management style to clarity - Using tools like the Sphere of Influence and Mood Tracker - Trusting myself and communicating confidently Surprise: The answers were always within me. Le’Siran guided me to find my own insights through powerful questions. Recommendation: I highly recommend coaching, especially for those facing career challenges or self-doubt. The experience was transformative. "Be the version of me who no longer worries about everything at once, but knows where to start… and starts there."

Attended trauma informed self care workshop, it was very beneficial and made me realise some of the things I was feeling were down to trauma/work and it will help me recognise and address this.

Thank you Le'Siran for a positive transformational experience. I went from stressed out to cool, calm and collected. It is important to have these safe spaces when working in such a challenging environment. Looking forward to the next one.

I ATTENDED THE BLACK SAFEGUARDING PROFESSIONALS ROUNDTABLE EVENT This is the second online space I have attended for free hosted by Le’Siran & she just has a way of seamlessly facilitating a warm and authentic atmosphere even being online. Particularly for other black practitioners sharing our story and being able to validate each others experiences while some may differ, is always a welcomed time. Thank you for always picking speakers with heart and realness. I hope to share and give back with you one day, especially while I have limited financial means as a thank you this season! x

Attended Trauma Informed self care workshop. Interesting tool to recognise how to be more emotionally resilient at work and to make changes when you are not.

This roundtable event was truly empowering. Led by an inspiring social worker mentor and leader. The space felt safe, affirming, and deeply intentional. It was more than a conversation — it was a celebration of identity, resilience, and community. I left feeling seen, supported, and motivated. It was just what I needed.

Thank you Le’Siran for creating a safe online space where Black professionals can be vulnerable and open to reflect on their experiences in the workplace, discuss what support has been helpful throughout our journeys and consider how we can take care of our ourselves and each other! Here’s to more amazing events! Davina

This was a very insightful and creative way for us to self care. As practitioners, we seem to find numerous reasons why we cannot self care, and end up being burnt out. Thank you. Pat

Great ideas to reflect on

I love the safe space for black professional to be able to connect, network and support each other on their professional and personal journey. The space comes with a wealth of both knowledge, skills and authenticity.

I really appreciated the safe space and the openness of the speakers / attendees. Thank you for the roundtable and please offer ongoing sessions :)
