Lana Hailemariam is a Certified Leadership & Organizational Coach who engages audiences and provides memorable experiences. Dr. Donald Clifton once said, "There is no more effective way to empower people than to see each person in terms of his or her strengths.” If you can see the possibility in each person, then you can speak to it and teach to it. The path Lana traveled hardly resembles a straight line. After graduating with a B.S. in International Business from University of Maryland, College Park, her adventures have included nine years in sales, 4 years of event management, six years in the multi-million dollar cheerleading industry, a few years in insurance, five years in ministry, four years in education and more than ten years in entrepreneurship. As an entrepreneur, Ms. Hailemariam owned a Gold’s Gym Franchise, an Indoor Football Team (Maryland Maniacs) as well as a personal training company called Star Fitness, Inc. After all of that, Lana brought her East Coast flair to the mountains when she moved to Denver from The DMV (D.C., Maryland, Virginia). There she discovered a love for working with non-profit organizations as well as her Fortune 1000 clients. Lana enjoys all of it and over the years has learned that the beauty of her dynamic approach to coaching is exactly that diversity of background and experience. Lana uses the wisdom she gained through life’s experiences and challenges to lay the foundation to authentic, meaningful conversations that positively impact people, teams and organizations. When Lana is not coaching, she is likely curled up with a good book, binge watching Netflix or enjoying nature outdoors somewhere beautiful. Preferably two out of three at one time!

“If you don’t make a path for yourself, your environment will do that job for you”. This was an early lesson Demetrius “Meech” Thigpen would learn, if he didn’t invocate change within himself. His story is no different than many youth, born in a metropolitan area riddle with drugs, crime, and plagued with addiction. Demetrius, the middle child of three siblings was raised by a single mother due to the absence of his father. Demetrius had to experience at an early age just how detrimental addiction was and the damage it can do to a family. Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, drugs, crime, addiction, and violence were the norm; and it was a life expected for most. With the lack of jobs and the poverty this city had to offer; Demetrius’s mother did the best she could in raising her two young children all on her own. With the loss of her job combined with the recession, the trajectory of their lives would shift from barely getting by to barely being able to keep the lights on. By the time Demetrius was graduating high school majority of the kids he grew up with had already begun to employ the lessons our environment had taught them; and many had already received the outcome. Demetrius was faced with the cruel realization about his future and what he could get out of this city. Eventually, this led him to make a tough decision at the tender age of 18; join the United States Marine Corps upon graduating high school. The time came and he enlisted in 2009. Demetrius has served 10 faithful years. Throughout his service he has faced obstacles and overcame adversity; deploying to different to countries in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, and the Special Purpose Marine Air Ground Task Force. These tours along with many other challenges would go on to transform him into the man he is today. A Sergeant and Martial Arts Instructor Trainer within the United States Marine Corps, Demetrius has had the privilege to train, lead, guide, and mentor fellow Marines. Utilizing the training he received from the Marines Corps and the experiences from his life, Demetrius specializes in character development. His passion is helping people address the very obstacles that are holding them back from becoming the version of themselves that they were destined to be. Throughout his life Demetrius was able to overcome the biggest obstacle of his life: become a great father figure for his children even though he had no idea as to what that meant since his father battled with addiction for as long as he could remember. A loving husband and a great father to three beautiful children; he not only strives to fully be there for his family but he hopes he is able to inspire others that are currently struggling.
