We had the good fortune of connecting with Leticia DeSuze and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Leticia, what is the most important factor behind your success?
The most important factor behind my success is my level of self-awareness and authenticity. I’m clear on who I am and also who I am not. I’m clear on what I do and what I don’t do and I stay in my lane.  I can remember meeting someone in person who I’d previously only spoken to on the phone. After conversing for awhile she looked at me, smiled and said, “You’re exactly the same as you are on the phone!” Who else would I be?! I believe that your authentic place is your wealthy place. Where so many people feel the need to be someone other than themselves, I find my greatest fulfillment and success comes from being who I am without a need to hide certain parts of myself to make others comfortable or to get people’s approval. The more I am myself the better things go!

What should our readers know about your business?
I am a mindset coach and business strategist who works with high six-figure and seven figure entrepreneurs. There is ‘mind trash’ at every level of business. Some people say “New levels. New devils.” I say “New levels. New layers.” At every level there will be another layer of yourself that you need to discover and often discard to get to the next best version of yourself. What sets me apart from others is I know my s**t! It’s not through textbooks or coaching theory. I’ve coached over 1200 people. I’ve also lived through enough pain and trauma to identify it when it presents itself as a stumbling block in business and I can help women heal through it. I am deeply discerning and intuitively know how to cut through the clutter and compassionately help them get to the root of their issues – which often stem from childhood. Although I work with some of the smartest and most ‘successful’ women – behind the scenes it’s often a shit show. They are often hurting and miserable. They feel inadequate and like imposters. Where do they go to unload? Who can they confide in discreetly when everyone looks to them as ‘leaders?’ Who helps them in times of growth, crisis and transition when they’re not at their best? Where is their safe space to be human? I provide that. Why? Because it’s what I always needed and never got.

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.
I’m an introvert so a week would definitely be too long. I’m a nature person and like to keep it simple. I also love food. Hiking some of Georgia’s best trails near water like Amicolala Falls; Minnehaha Falls. We would also eat at some of Atlanta’s best plant-based restaurants or have meals catered by a private chef. I found one from Louisiana and he is amazing! Maybe massages, shopping and the gym. All I got.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would like to dedicate my shoutout to my amazing clients. Their need for healing; permission to be who they truly are; desire to LOVE life and make a shit ton of money while doing it; and their openness and trust has required me to continually dig deep so I continually serve them at the highest levels.
