Doneshia is a dedicated Pregnancy and Fertility Health Coach with a rich background in both education and practice. In 2016, she earned her L.E.A.N. certification in health coaching from the Dr. Sears Institute, including specialized training in pregnancy coaching. She further advanced her expertise in 2023 by obtaining certification as a Fertility Support Specialist (Doula) through Bebo Mia. Her passion for reproductive health originated in her youth, with a longstanding aspiration to enter obstetrics and gynecology. Although she didn't follow that specific path, she always felt that God was leading her in the direction of pregnancy/maternity.

​

As a Pregnancy and Fertility Health Coach, Doneshia focuses on improving the pregnancy, maternity, and fertility journey through a blend of holistic and evidence-based approaches. Her goal is to empower families and individuals to make informed decisions tailored to their unique experiences. She is particularly passionate about addressing health disparities in minority reproductive health and providing safe, holistic services that promote healthy families through education, advocacy, and awareness.

​

Doneshia is committed to ongoing learning in her field, continually seeking fresh, transparent, and applicable knowledge to better serve her clients. Her comprehensive understanding of economic and health challenges allows her to offer practical, real-world solutions, guiding her clients not just to survive but to thrive.

​

Educationally, Doneshia holds a Bachelor of Arts in Marketing and Advertising Communications with a minor in Economics, as well as two Master’s degrees: a Master of Science in Housing and Consumer Economics with a minor in Gerontology and a Master of Business Administration. She is currently pursuing a Doctorate, further deepening her understanding of the intersection between economics and health.

​

Outside of her coaching practice, Doneshia is the creative force behind her health and wellness lifestyle brand, Simply Starling. This brand is dedicated to simplifying how individuals live out a holistic and healthy lifestyle. In her personal time, Doneshia enjoys spending time with family and friends, working out (especially spin classes and weightlifting), dancing (she also choreographs), laughing, creating vegan recipes, serving and teaching at her church, thrift shopping, and catching up on Netflix and Amazon Prime movies.
