I’m Dr. Phildra Swagger

Creative Strategist, Coach and CEO

My perseverance and strategic approach to life and business have both inspired others and transformed their work.  And yet, I am still evolving. I believe we are all capable of living our best lives and “leveling up” to fulfill our life’s purpose. My mission is to help you do just that by “combining our expertise, to maximize yours!”

 

Through coaching, I help organizations amplify their impact and coach individuals to achieve their next level of greatness.


I founded Combined Expertise in 2006 to help others realize their dreams of starting charter schools and small businesses. Since that time, I’ve worked with individuals, entrepreneurs, and corporate executives to establish startups and expand their impact and economic footprint. Building a life or business that fulfills your biggest dreams requires hard work and steadfast focus.  I help you get out of your own way and get clear on your vision, so that you can accomplish your goals and enjoy the journey along the way.

 

As a former educator and a lifelong learner, I value education and personal development. My formal education includes completing my undergraduate studies at North Carolina A&T State University, my M.Ed at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and later my MBA and Ph.D at the University of South Florida. I am an ICF credentialed coach and currently training to be a certified Yoga Instructor. 

 

I am a wife, mother of two, sister, friend, child of God and evolving woman.
