Makia White

Makia White is an author, educator, consultant, and Midlife Strategist dedicated to helping women embrace aging with confidence, purpose, and vibrancy. With a Master of Arts in Special Education and decades of experience empowering others, she founded Empowered 1 Consults LLC to create transformative spaces where women can reconnect with their strength, redefine what’s possible, and step boldly into their next chapter.

Makia’s journey is one of resilience, determination, and unwavering faith. As a former teenage mother who overcame significant obstacles, including the challenges of an under-resourced inner-city education, she persevered to become the first of ten siblings to earn a college degree. Her story is a testament to the power of faith, perseverance, and refusing to allow circumstances to determine one’s destiny.

Known for her authenticity and heartfelt approach, Makia speaks openly about life’s setbacks, triumphs, and the lessons learned along the way. She believes that every challenge carries the potential for growth and that our greatest struggles often become the foundation of our greatest impact.

Today, Makia’s work centers on helping women reject limiting beliefs, embrace their God-given purpose, and become more visible, influential, and fulfilled than ever before. Through her writing, speaking, and coaching, she encourages women to see aging not as a season of decline, but as an invitation to rise into their wisdom, power, and possibility.

At the heart of Makia’s message is a simple yet profound belief: love heals, faith sustains, and purpose transforms. She invites women to use their life experiences as a catalyst for influence, legacy, and impact.
