How did you get here?
Mercy Ohiaeriaku’s journey into the field of coaching and business consulting is both unique and inspiring, marked by her experiences as a military veteran and spouse. Her path began with the challenges and transitions inherent in military life—moving frequently, adapting to new environments, and facing uncertainties head-on. These experiences provided Mercy with a deep understanding of the complexities of change and the importance of resilience, laying the groundwork for her future career.
The concept of VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity) was not just an academic term for Mercy but a lived reality. Witnessing firsthand the impact of constant change on individuals and families, she recognized the need for specialized support to navigate these transitions. This realization sparked her passion for coaching and mentoring, specifically aimed at helping others manage change more effectively.
Mercy’s transition from military life to coaching and consulting was fueled by her desire to leverage her experiences for the greater good. She pursued formal education and training in coaching, building upon her innate skills of empathy, leadership, and strategic thinking. Her background as a combat veteran and military spouse enriched her approach, allowing her to connect with clients on a profound level.
The establishment of Mercy Speaks was a natural progression in Mercy’s journey. It was born out of a desire to create a platform where she could share her knowledge, experiences, and faith-driven insights to empower and uplift others. Through Mercy Speaks, she offers a range of services, including transition coaching, resilience coaching, business consulting, and mentoring for military spouses, all designed to foster personal and professional growth.
Mercy’s entry into the field was not just a career choice but a calling. Inspired by her own journey through the challenges of military life and transitions, she has dedicated herself to helping others navigate their paths with confidence, resilience, and grace.
