About Me

Hi, I’m Shria Tomlinson—a Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach, seasoned nonprofit leader, and founder of Elevated Movements.
I created this space for women of color who are ready to lead boldly, live authentically, and reclaim their brilliance—on their own terms.

For over two decades, I’ve dedicated my life and career to advancing equity, building strong communities, and empowering others to grow through purpose and resilience. From serving as a Chief Site Strategy Officer at a national nonprofit to guiding executive teams and designing high-impact leadership programs, I’ve witnessed firsthand the power of clarity, courage, and connection.

But Elevated Movements isn’t just professional—it’s personal. It was born during a time of deep reflection, when I began asking myself: What would it look like to live fully aligned with my values? That question became a calling—and now, a community.

I work with women who are high-achieving but feeling stuck, inspired but exhausted, powerful but ready for more. Through 1:1 coaching, retreats, workshops, and intentional community, I help you identify your strengths, reconnect with your purpose, and build the life you envision—with joy, rest, and impact at the center.

I’m also a proud first-generation college graduate, a mom, a wife, a sister, and a former teen parent who knows what it means to rise—again and again.

Let’s grow together.
