Meet Jasmine Stokes, Certified Master Life Coach & Founder of The Greater Me Consulting
Jasmine Stokes, affectionately known as Coach Jas, is a certified master life coach. She aims to help women with their faith walk, mirror experiences, entrepreneurial journey, and foundational structure, and truly see their GREATER selves in life and business. With over eight years of experience in learning and development, 15 years of experience in Corporate America, and a bachelor’s degree in business management and finance, Jasmine is well versed in identifying communication and accountability strategies for focusing on the development of one’s strengths and ultimate wins.
Jasmine is the founder of The Greater Me Consulting, a Coaching and Consulting business for faith-based minority women. The sole purpose is to empower women to their next level in business and life, which Coach Jas refers to as their “greater” level. Jasmine has found her true calling in the form of teaching women how to not only survive in their life and business journey but to thrive. She offers products geared towards confidence, empowerment, self-healing, and entrepreneurship. The Consulting portion of Jasmine’s business focuses specifically on women entrepreneurs and their entrepreneurship journey. She provides Life Coaching Certification training and courses to assist with starting and sustaining their businesses, personal growth, and continued business product development.
A “Yes” to God’s will led Jasmine to her calling to the marketplace. In January 2015, she encountered God on a new level. She had no idea that her “yes” would include moving to another city, getting married, her children being blessed, new opportunities in her career, ignited purpose, and a new level in God being awakened. “I never saw entrepreneurship in my journey, and God not only placed it there, but He also used my husband to speak it into me, over me, and support me in this journey. Late one night, during one of our deep talks, my husband said, “Babe, why don’t you do this for real?” “This” was coaching, helping, praying, interceding, developing, inspiring, teaching, and motivating. I had only seen Iyanla Vanzant (who I call my Auntie, mind your own business, lol) as a life coach. I didn’t know it was something I could actually do.”
Jasmine explains that her business journey is not normal because she’s a faith-based entrepreneur and business. “Learning that God was and is the head of my business was so different from my normal corporate journey. I became bold, authentic, and transparent when I realized God not only purposed me for such a time as this but also equipped me with what was needed to carry ministry and business. I don’t proclaim to be a minister or pastor, but I am a praying, faith-filled powerhouse for God, and it feels good to lead in business with this.” Jasmine says she truly knows and believes her success is based on this call of God leading her here. “I teach women business acumen, how to do it with God first, how to incorporate God and prayer in their business strategies and plans, and how to serve in their purpose and passion for seeing a profit. Here I am, three years in business, now a full-time entrepreneur and literally walking by faith and seeing success.”
Greater is He that is within me than he that is within the world.
1 John 4:4 is the scripture Jasmine’s business is built on. “We are all purposed and created for greatness because God is greater, and He lives in us. We can do all things with Him, and we should do all things that ensure He gets the glory,” she says. Jasmine truly believes that if it wasn’t for God, she wouldn’t be here, divinely connecting with women she would have never met in “normal” life. “Every encounter, every woman I meet, and every woman I coach has come from God,” she continues. “God uses me to confirm His word, to be a living example of His grace and mercy, of being broken and put back together by Him only. Everything I have gone through was for me to turn around and help my next sister. That is my duty.”
While Jasmine helps women start coaching and consulting businesses, God uses her to deposit seeds of faith and hope in them. Jasmine claims that God has called a new remnant to the marketplace, and it is women of faith who have the knowledge and power in the boardroom and the prayer closet. “I am one of them and a forerunner to help others acknowledge they are too,” she says.
