Together, we'll unmask the imposter syndrome, challenge the lies holding you back, and help you learn how to finally choose you.
Resilience. Perseverance. Transparency. Verline Gaddis is a female, African American Licensed Clinical Social Worker who not only embodies these impactful traits but uses them as tools to help other women rise above their own circumstances and commit to standing boldly and unapologetically in their own perfectly imperfect truth.
Bio
Verline holds a Master of Social Work from the Loyola University of Chicago, a Master of Education Leadership from Concordia University Chicago, and has over 19 years of experience in social work. She is no stranger to struggle and has first-hand knowledge on how to turn trials to triumph. Uncensored and resourceful yet caring and empathetic, she now seeks to serve women like the woman she used to be; women starting over, processing grief, struggling with motherhood, or the "CEO of Everything" and taking care of everyone but themselves.
