We had the good fortune of connecting with Dr. Mary J. Huntley and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Dr. Mary J., is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
There are several factors behind my success. First and foremost is acknowledging God and trusting Him to direct and guide my steps as I walk through His process. Daily I pray for divine connections, divine appointments, and God’s divine revelation (this allows me to focus on my assignments). Secondly, it is paramount that I believe in myself, because this has been a huge factor behind my success. When I believe in myself, I continue to eat an elephant “one bite at a time, step by step.” Thirdly, setting S.M.A.R.T. goals has also allowed me to accomplish major feats. My goals must be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and timebound. Next, I must navigate MY lane of brilliance. Lastly doing what I love has also allowed me to accomplish some major feats. As a certified master life coach aka Master Motivational Mindset Coach, I coach clients challenged with low self-esteem and rejection by motivating them as I provide high-octane motivation® through S.M.A.R.T. goal setting to ensure that they reach their desired results.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I serve as Chief Executive/Encouragement Officer of Trinity Global Empowerment Ministries, Inc. a 501(c)(3) organization and a Certified Academic Institution under the National Christian Counselors Association. We exist to elevate low self-esteem and rejection by providing high-octane motivation® utilizing the S.M.A.R.T. goal setting technique, provide hope for the hopeless, and to empower clients to manifest their desired results.

Our services include but are not limited to professional consultations, professional coaching, professional counseling, clinical supervision, and online counseling, coaching, and professional and personal development classes. We are very grateful that we have been here to assist those mentally challenged during COVID. Anxiety, and depression, have sky-rocketed during this time, but we have answered the calls for help.

What sets me apart from others: 25+ years of integrity, accountability calls, motivation, and professionalism. And I am grateful that we are credentialed/licensed/certified to serve with integrity.


Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
We would begin our tour by visiting the home of the late Civil Rights Activist Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Dr. King has immensely contributed to our history and we would seize the moment to pay homage for his amazing contributions. Our next stop would be the Ebenezer Baptist Church. We would then visit the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historical Park to take in the sights. By then we would need to experience some of the delicious seafood at McCormick & Schmick’s Seafood & Steaks. We would appreciate the serving portions, freshness and awesome ambiance.

Lastly, we would visit Tyler Perry Studios to see the awesome 330 acre lot/site acquired in 2015. This was formerly Fort McPherson army base. This is one of the largest production facilities in the country.
