About Me
Kelley Green Johnson is the author of the book “Perfectly Imperfect” and the 1-3-5 Journal a Certified Meditation Instructor and Mindset Coach for coaches, leaders, healers, and entrepreneurs, also Certified in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Hypnotherapy, and Human Design, and the Founder of Rise By Design
Kelley loves empowering people to go after their dreams by being their most authentic selves and following their purpose. However, during her years of coaching, she noticed that the many lighthouses of the world want to help others, but struggle with their mindset and have done minimal self-discovery work to understand and love their true self. Kelley then decided to impact the world by providing people with the guidance and resources they need to be successful, attract the right clients, and see themselves in a way that amplifies their self-worth, confidence, and the many areas of their life and/or business.
Through her content, created as self-empowerment quotes, speaking opportunities, energetically empowering videos, workshops, programs, and more, she has inspired thousands by introducing the importance of self-love, mindset, and manifestation, by sharing her lifestyle, and teaching how to obtain a self-belief that affirms their brilliance and gives them the knowledge and confidence to share their gifts with others all around the world.
How it all started…
In 2017, Kelley debuted her first book “Perfectly Imperfect”, a collection of poetry and prose laced with gripping poems and inspirational tidbits of reflective experiences infused with valuable wisdom. Each piece reminds the reader of life’s only constant: change and life’s key to happiness: self-love. Through creative writing, Kelley learned how to overcome the grief of three loved ones in her family, all in the year 2015, and her battle with living in the unknown with society's pressures of success on her back, as a millennial black woman. She now uses the knowledge she’s gained to help other women battling with self-doubt, a lack of confidence, and an uncertain sense of direction in their lives.
Born and raised in South Jamaica, Queens, New York, she is no stranger to seeing faces that resemble hers while also witnessing the pain and challenges of the women inflicted by loss, trauma, and a vacant sense of self. Her work is designed to guide creative women of color to a life wrapped in confidence, self-love, healing, and alignment with their purpose and true selves. Kelley’s coaching work is strengthened by the 200-hour Yoga & Meditation Training Certification that she carries to introduce her clients to transformational breath-mind-body awareness, divine self-love, and a sense of community as a Meditation practitioner.
A natural communicator, Kelley shares her story and knowledge of human design, wellness, meditation, and entrepreneurship on stages, podcasts, and television networks, to inspire others to live their best lives. Kelley has worked at Fortune 500 and Fortune 100 companies like Enterprise and UPS, worked with brands/companies like Allstate, Dupixent, American Greetings, Credit Karma, and the NYC Department of Education, and has been seen on networks such as CBS New York, MTV, Starz, with coaching clients as far as Johannesburg, South Africa.
When Kelley isn’t busy creating content, she travels the world with her husband, enjoys time with her daughter, practices meditation, joyfully dances to music, and spends time with her family and friends.
