Highland Park’s LESLIE RANDOLPH is on a mission to spread the love: self-love that is. A certified Life Coach and the Chief Wisdom Officer at The Coach Chronicles, Randolph helps women and teens know, love, and believe in themselves so they can live the life of their dreams. While there is no one-size-fits-all in the “life of your dreams” department, Randolph says a universal outcome from coaching is greater self-love and self-confidence. Randolph launched her coaching practice after spending nearly five years living in South Africa with her husband and two kids. While living overseas, she confronted the question so many of her clients today face: “what do I want to want?” To help her answer this question, she hired a life coach. And the rest is history. Coach Randolph shares her city and shore favorites with Sheridan Road.
