About Soaring Eagles

Premadonna Braddick is a life coach, ordained minister, motivational speaker, author, and actress. She’s a prime example of overcoming nearly insurmountable circumstances. Born and raised in the foster care system in East Oakland, California from age two to eighteen years old, she spent the early years of her life dealing with depression, low self-esteem, and a poor self-image. Despite this, she was surrounded by mentors who offered guidance, wisdom, and inspiration to pursue her purpose in life; therefore, she understands the importance of mentorship. Instead of using her past as an excuse, Premadonna turned her obstacles into stepping-stones to achieve her goals and help young women and teenage girls do the same.

Through the love and support of those around her, Premadonna resolved not to allow past challenges to dictate her future or hinder her from achieving life goals. She gained the confidence to compete in the Miss California pageant and to complete her educational goals. She has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Radio, Television, and Film with a minor in Theatre of Arts from San Jose State University. She’s also an alumna of Oral Roberts University in Oklahoma, where she earned two Master of Arts degrees in marriage/family therapy and Christian counseling. She’s a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Tulsa Rotary Club, former member of Kappa Phi Beta Honor Society, and graduate from Leadership Tulsa Class of 54.

Its mission is to help youth and families re-write their stories to help them live a self-sufficient and rewarding life. Her organization addresses troubled teens and family issues through counseling, mentorship, an Annual Girls’ Teen Summit, follow up, health and fitness workshops, and community service.
