The Heart Behind TAG

Angela Mahoney, affectionately known as Coach Angie, is an author, educator, and advocate for women and girls of color. With over 20 years of mentoring experience, she founded Transform A Girl in 2015 to provide a safe space where girls could embrace their authentic selves.
Her passion began in 2002 after visiting a youth detention home for at-risk girls, where she witnessed the transformative power of guidance and mentorship. Since then, she has dedicated her life to helping young girls build self-worth, confidence, and leadership skills.
