During the month of March 2021, LeAsia Leach-Thompson, owner of Life Changing Missions, joined us on the Tipsy Unicorn Podcast as an honored guest. She is a life coach and parent coach, and was recently featured on Black Applied Behavior Analysts (BABA) during Black History Month
She describes her self as a passionate, consistent, go-getter who believes it's important to understand what it means to love yourself, that people are capable of healing themselves, that people being themselves unapologetically is the best medicine for the world to heal, and that sometimes people don't even know who they are so that's where she helps them start their journey!
