These events were Motivating, Inspiring and created Memories for a Lifetime for their Companies, Businesses, Associates and for their family members and friends.
Cherise have always had a love and gift in meeting people, assisting people and certainly a Love for the Coastal Cities and towns throughout the USA. While dating, Cherise & Coach Tony fell in love with the ocean, sand, beach, as well as all of the nature and wildlife that comes with it…birds, fish, turtles, the smell of the ocean and of course the AMAZING SUNRISES, SUNSETS AND STARS each one of these so vivid and bright on the “Golden Isles Coast”.
During their early years of marriage, Cherise put her goals and dreams as an entrepreneur on hold to support Coach Tony. With her love, support and of course, hard work he achieved all of his goals. Cherise then made the decision to launch her own company “Golden Coastal Getaways” that provides Personal & Professional Event Planning and Services. Coach Tony made the decision to play a supportive role in providing Marketing, Sales & Leadership Training and Strategies to the team of GCG while also providing Professional Event Services such as Sales & Leadership Workshops, as well as Professional & Motivational Speaking Services for our Clients.
