Raised in a home of contradiction, Carrie-Ann Barrow reached a point in life where she decided she was done with the ideologies that society and her parents impressed upon her. Influenced by the example of strong women she knew, Carrie-Ann took a deep dive into her own life and tapped into her own power and greatness, unleashing the queen she is today. Carrie Ann is a dynamic force determined to help women discover their dreams and live with unshakable confidence at every stage of their lives. She transforms the way women think about themselves, empowering them to re-imagine what's possible and make their boldest visions real. She does this both in her writing and coaching. Her book, The Queen's Decree, is an Amazon number one bestseller, where she shares her personal story, as well as stories from women she's coached, who have learned to declare and live their greatness. Her message is, “You can reclaim your power to choose at any age.”. She challenges women to honor and prioritize themselves and bring out their inner queen, which I call inner bad-ass.
