:: Sharod Edwards

For the past 8 years Sharod has coached individuals and families on how to gain control and perspective of their finances. His previous clients would say he was very intricate in helping them pay down or eliminate their debt while building a substantial nest egg for rainy days.

Sharod's clients consist of churches, business owners, married couples and military members both active duty and retired. He really enjoys coming along side other men and giving them knowledge in hopes of making their lives easier. This gives him the satisfaction of helping and transforming their lives. He enjoys working with the youth, mentoring and coaching as a Big Brother for the Big Brother and Big Sister program. He enjoys coaching various sports which include basketball and football. When he’s not coaching the youth, Sharod is spending time with his wife and two kids.

Sharod spent several years in the military on active duty. While on deployment in Iraq, he received several injuries. Sharod's injuries ranged from a partial knee cap with a wire and pin holding it together.  He also suffered a back injury which required three surgeries that subsequently paralyzed him for 6 months from the waist down. Sharod even dealt with mental problems which include PTSD and feelings of guilt.

The members of Sharod's church came along side of him to help him clearly understand that these injuries endured would not define his end, but rather reveal his new beginning. This endeavor helped him to discover the meaning of resilience and how to grow into the man he is today.

Now if that was not the worst of it, Sharod also lost his right hand. It’s not what he lost and selflessly endured that defines him. However, it is what he has gained and fully embraced through such trials, being transformed throughout the process, which testifies to his will and unwavering character in Christ alone.

Sharod's character and selfless nature that he consistently exemplifies brings invaluable merit as a Life Coach.
