Coaching for Military-Connected Women Nationwide
Our Core Values
Support
"...It takes us all to lift us all."
Our clients are at the forefront of our work, so our coaching engagements are designed to make them feel seen, heard, and most importantly -- supported.
Human Kindness
"...Simply put, we get it."
We understand that our clients have a unique set
of emotional wants, rational needs, and hidden fears.
We provide a safe space to explore these feelings --
without shame or judgment.
Empowerment
"...There is power in community."
Being an invaluable resource is part of our "why".
We unapologetically serve women who have
selflessly given of themselves through time, talent,
and sacrifice for the safeguarding of our country.
Resilience
"...We are not our worst decision."
Real growth begins where failure meets compassion. Through our work, we remind our clients that
regardless of past challenges, they are
worthy & capable of a fresh start.
Opportunity
"...Impossible does not exist."
We believe there is no force like a woman in
pursuit of her dreams. Through our work, we
champion the limitless potential of women.
Meet Charleta, Our Founder
We were founded by U.S. Navy veteran spouse and Executive Coach Charleta Harvey. Charleta comes from a family of military men & women. In her youth, she often witnessed loved ones deploying in service to our country. Their service – born from a collective sense of patriotism – was her first introduction to the true meaning of sacrifice.
As a college student, she met the young man who would later become her husband. He, a plebe at the United States Naval Academy; she, a freshman at a university in her native Washington, DC. After the two married and started a family, her husband Michael deployed for the 1st time after the 9/11 terrorist attacks – their firstborn not yet a year old.
Numerous deployments and changes in duty station – both domestic & international – amid an extended commitment to family as a stay-at-home mom, Charleta became all too familiar with the obstacles many military spouses face due to multiple career “breaks”. After more than a decade, she re-entered the work force to reclaim her professional identity and find her purpose.
During her time as an executive coach for a national military organization, she noticed a critical resource gap in meeting the needs of military-connected women. Since then, her mission has become focused on championing support for the women of this honored community. From this mission, Patriot Woman Coaching was born and seeks to build a legacy that positively impacts the lives of women for years to come, by helping them prepare for life after the military.
Beyond her work at the helm of Patriot Woman Coaching, Charleta is a mentor for the American Corporate Partners (ACP) military spouse mentorship program. ACP is a national nonprofit organization whose mission is to support veterans and active-duty spouses in finding their next career through 1:1 mentorship, networking, and online career resources. She is also a member of the board of advisors for the Strategic Alliance for Veteran Integration (SAVI), a national nonprofit dedicated to supporting transitioning service members as they navigate obtaining post-service VA entitlements, through the provision of customized services and proprietary programs.
