My name is Coach Sherika Brent and I am from Canton, Mississippi. I have always been passionate about helping other people. This is why I decided to study Psychology at Tougaloo College.  Afterwards I attended Jackson State University where I studied Rehabilitation Counseling. Although I am proud of my accomplishment, there were some rough patches especially being chronically ill. My junior year in college was hard because I had one of the worst flare up ever. At this point, I was thinking about leaving college because my health started declining. Honestly, I can say that I was devastated and didn't know what to do. So I talked to my Grandmother about it and she told me something that will always stay with me, she said "God did not bring you this far to give up on you now." This gave me so much inspiration so instead of throwing in the towel, I continued to go on with college. 

Nevertheless, my battle with chronic illness is also the reason why Destination Progress Life Coaching was created to help women and men with chronic illness, regain their self-confidence and self-esteem. Admittedly at first, I was petrified because I did not want to reveal my struggle with chronic illness but I realize the cause was greater than my fear. 

I received my Life Coach Certification from Life Coach Training Institute. Afterward, I attended Transformation Academy where I received my Master Life Coach Certificate and Professional Life Coach Certificate.
