“From the Hardwood to the Heart
- Coaching Champions in the Game of Life.”

I’m Jacqueline “Coach Jackie” Lauderdale, a coach, speaker, and strategist dedicated to helping people move forward with intention.

My journey did not start on a stage. It started through real life. From navigating personal challenges to becoming one of the youngest collegiate head coaches in the country, I learned that growth is not about avoiding obstacles. It is about learning how to move through them.

Today, I bring that same approach into every space I step into, working with individuals, students, and organizations to build clarity, confidence, and direction.

When your mindset shifts, your actions follow, and everything starts to change.

Ways to work together:


• 1:1 Coaching

• Workshops and Group Sessions

• School and Youth Programs

• Nonprofit and Community Partnerships

• Speaking Engagements 

I work with people and organizations who are ready to move forward. Not just stay motivated, but take real, intentional action.

Whether you are navigating change, building confidence, or developing leadership, the goal is simple. Help you see clearly and take the next step.

The Y.O.U. Method

Yield to Self-Awareness. Understand what is shaping your patterns and decision. Own Your Narrative. Take control of your story and how you show up. Unleash with Purpose. Move forward with clarity, confidence, and direction.

This is not just about inspiration. It is about applying what you learn in real life.

I first got to know Jackie when she was 15 years old. The more I talked with her, the more I realized there was something truly special about her. Over the years, I watched Jackie grow, learn, and face one difficult situation after another. Life was not always fair to her, yet she remained sweet, positive, and strong. What amazed me most was how upbeat she stayed, even through adversity. Jackie has always had a natural gift for helping people. Friends, acquaintances, and even people dealing with relationship challenges would come to her for advice. She listened, encouraged them, and offered wisdom with honesty and care. Through it all, I never saw Jackie become bitter or give up. She always had a plan to move forward, even while raising her son with strength, intelligence, and purpose. I truly believe Jackie’s life is divinely guided. I have seen miracles happen in her life, and I have watched her keep her heart grounded in faith while continuing to care for others. Jackie has a natural gift of wisdom, compassion, and common sense. I know she will help many people. The world needs more people like her, and I believe she is ready to step out and let others know she is here for them.

Coach Jackie, Is a brilliant motivational speaker who is engaging, inspiring, and spiritually grounded. Her wisdom, calm resolve, and principle-based coaching opened a world of endless possibilities for me in my real estate business. I have better clarity, purpose, and a “can do” attitude. Your coaching and balanced perspective continues to inspire me to go beyond my confront zone and embrace new possibilities. Thank you for your commitment to excellence!
