For years, I was the "successful" one. Master's degree. 14-year career in natural resources. The promotion I'd chased for five years. A home, a marriage rebuilt after sobriety, the best dog in the world.

And I was deeply unfulfilled.

I couldn't understand why I had everything I'd worked for but felt nothing. No joy. No passion. Just going through the motions while my soul watched from somewhere far away.

Everything shifted in when I finally sought help. Within an hour of taking my first medication, I felt my soul snap back into my body. Six weeks later: ADHD diagnosis. At 39 years old.

Suddenly, everything made sense. The third-grade teacher who kept me after school because I hadn't turned in homework all semester (but finished it all in two hours). The way I'd always felt "different" from my siblings. The chaos of my childhood that masked what was really going on. The years of searching outside myself for validation I couldn't feel even when I had it.

The diagnosis was devastating and liberating in equal measure. What if I'd known sooner? But also: Finally, I understand.

I've spent my entire career working with natural resources — understanding ecosystems, stakeholder conflicts, the delicate balance of complex systems. Now I realize I was learning about myself. Nature taught me that healing isn't linear. That systems are interconnected. That sometimes you have to leave the path that looks "successful" to find the one that's actually right.

Now I help women who are where I was: accomplished on paper, exhausted in reality, wondering if there's something fundamentally wrong with them.

There isn't. You're not broken. You're just finally ready to stop performing and start living.

With over 12 + years’ experience as a Certified Life Coach, I have learned a persons healing journey where individuals learn to navigate challenges and develop a sense of wholeness and well-being. It's a path toward self-discovery and growth, acknowledging past wounds, practicing self-compassion, and building resilience to move forward.  Ones healing journey is a process which can involve ups and downs, setbacks, and mot importantly, progress towards a healthy change. 

You deserve to get to the finish line with the healthiest version of you possible and enjoy (your) life to the fullest. 

I’m direct but deeply empathetic — the kind of coach who will celebrate your wins and gently call you on your patterns. I create a space that feels safe enough to be honest, and structured enough to actually move forward. Think less cheerleader, more trusted friend, who happens to know a lot about human behaviour.

Hello, I’m Angela Brown, founder of Lavender Haze Coaching.
I am so glad you found your way here. As a certified professional life coach, I specialize in helping clients create transformative life and career changes with tangible results. If you’re feeling stuck or ready for a career pivot, you are in the right place.

My Journey

During my early career, I often asked myself, “Is this it?” I’d sit in my car before work, dreading the day ahead. Like many people, I had taken a job after college simply to feel secure and accomplished—but it wasn’t aligned with who I truly was. I spent years on autopilot, until I began to recognize the signs of burnout and deep dissatisfaction. I didn’t have a clear plan—I just knew something needed to change.

Time For a Change

Like you, I was searching for more. I took a personal inventory of my skills, interests, and values—and made a bold decision to pivot. I didn’t know how I was going to do it, but I knew something had to change. After doing some serious self-reflection, I found a career path that aligned with my lifestyle, passions, and sense of purpose. Now, through Lavender Haze Coaching, I help others do the same. Together, we will clarify what’s next for you and build a career that reflects who you truly are.

Why I Do This Work

I believe you deserve a career that doesn’t just pay the bills, but lights you up and complements your desired lifestyle.  Whether you're burned out, stuck, or craving a meaningful change, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’ve been there—and I’m here to help you rediscover clarity, confidence, and joy in your work and personal life. Let’s begin your next chapter—together. 

From a young age, I was taught that we create our own destiny. That belief, combined with early exposure to personal development, NLP, and the principles behind the Law of Attraction, shaped how I approached life, growth, and possibility.

Throughout my career, I applied those principles to achieve goals that once seemed out of reach. I advanced quickly through leadership roles, lived and worked in different countries, built high-performing teams, developed leaders, and created networks that opened doors to new opportunities. Yet what I enjoyed most was never the title or the achievement itself—it was helping people discover their potential and achieve things they didn't think were possible.

I had my own mentors and coaches whom I will be eternally grateful for, and over time, I realized that coaching, mentoring, and developing others had become the most meaningful part of my work. What started as a passion within my corporate career eventually became my calling. Today, with N-Able LLC, I help people gain clarity, overcome obstacles, and take action toward the future they want to create. And with Matchmaking Nashville, I pursue my mission to transform the local dating scene.

I've always been a learner at heart. Curiosity and continuous growth have shaped every stage of my journey. Combined with a genuine care for people, they remain my greatest strengths and the foundation of how I coach. I am convinced that we are all capable of creating possibilities far beyond our current circumstances. Sometimes, we need the right support to see them, believe in them, and pursue them.

With over 20 years of leading and coaching women, I know what it is to be an introvert thrust into a position that thrives on extroverted tendencies. I've lived it; personally and professionally. 

I’m Deanna Freeman, known as Coach Dea. I’m an introverted wife of a pastor, a homeschooling mother and a kinship caregiver. I lead in environments that often demand constant visibility, decisiveness and emotional output. Over the years, I've learned that success doesn't require becoming louder or more performative, it requires clarity, discipline and a way of working that respects how I’m designed.

As a faith-based speaker and Master Certified Professional Coach, my work centers on helping highly ambitious introverted women make clear decisions, protect their energy and move forward with intention. I specialize in guiding women who are capable, driven, responsible (but often overextended) through practical frameworks that support sustainable progress.

Through my 3-step INNER POWER BLUEPRINT, I help introverted women replace internal pressure with structure, self-trust and steady execution ensuring their success is built on capacity, not constant effort.

I’m passionate about men’s work because I believe the world would be a better place with healthy, integrated, and embodied men.

My work is shaped by my own journey. I began to notice two extremes in how men show up. On one end, men who are disconnected, closed off, or shut down. On the other, men who are open, aware, and emotionally attuned, but lack boundaries, people-please, suppress their truth, and lose themselves in life and relationships.

I found myself in the second.

Over time, I realized there was a third way. That became the foundation of my work.

Today, I support men in developing both depth and edge. The ability to be heart-open, emotionally attuned, self-aware, and spiritually awake, while also having boundaries, self-trust, and the capacity to express themselves clearly and directly in a grounded, healthy way, without abandoning themselves.

My work integrates awareness, presence, and the direction of personal energy, helping clients become more grounded, intentional, and aligned in how they show up. I also draw on the work of Carl Jung to bring awareness to unconscious patterns (“shadow work”) and how they influence behaviour and relationships.

This is not about fixing you. It’s about removing what gets in the way, so you can lead yourself with clarity, strength, and integrity.

I am a senior cybersecurity leader, military officer, and organizational leadership expert who has spent my career navigating high pressure environments where clarity, resilience, and disciplined decision making are non negotiable. My path has taken me through the energy sector, government operations, and the United States Army.

I built my expertise by leading teams, managing complex programs, and solving problems that demanded both technical knowledge and strong leadership. Along the way, I earned a PhD in Organizational Leadership, an Executive MBA, and more than a dozen advanced certifications in cybersecurity, governance, coaching, and program management. My academic and practical experience allow me to understand leadership from every angle, from individual behavior to team dynamics to enterprise strategy.

I have been the only woman in the room, the only Black professional at the table, and the person expected to deliver under pressure with no margin for error. My story is shaped by real-world experiences that forced me to communicate with confidence, influence senior leaders, manage conflict, and develop a leadership style grounded in discipline, empathy, and strategic thinking.

I became an executive coach because I understand how much leadership growth accelerates when people have a trusted partner who challenges them to rise to their potential. I help clients gain clarity, master executive presence, make stronger decisions, and move with confidence in rooms where expectations are high and excuses carry no weight.

My mission is simple. I help leaders elevate their thinking, strengthen their voice, and operate with the competence and influence required at the top levels of their field.
