Hi Perlu-ians, LaKesha here - pleasure to meet you!
AS A CAMPAIGN WHISPERER…
My goal is not only to service amazing talent & exceptional brands, but to marry this power couple to meaningful work! A true multi-hyphenate, I thrive in collaborative team environemnts where brand partnerships, content strategy, creative copy, and all things influencer marketing are taking flight.
THE MAGIC IN MY MANAGEMENT?
I lead with empathy. Second only to an affinity for creative marketing is my advocacy for mental wealth, emotional health and the normalization of self-care in all ecosystems. Ever-working to curate sacred spaces of connection, scholarship, wellness and growth, I breathe life more intentionally into projects where the product, messaging and/or service makes a positive impact on the world.
BRANDS / CAMPAIGNS I'VE MANAGED:
- PayPal
- Square
- Sephora
- Pure Leaf
- Brooklinen
- Nordstrom
- Pottery Barn
- Vanity Planet
- Matel / Fisher Price
- AND MORE!
OTHER PASSION PROJECTS:
My ability to conceive, organize & execute a vision is evident through my entrepreneurial work as CEO & Founder of:
Bella Perri, a mommy-daughter collaboration with my daughter all about promoting awareness & ending the stigmas associated with mental illness, therapy/counseling, medication, mindfulness & other holistic approaches to treatment; and
MentaliTeez, a conscious collaboration of graphic tees all about the promotion & awareness of mental health.

@usher did not come to perform. He did not even come to put on a half time show. He came to make a statement. #TalkThatTalk Mr. Raymond! #MessageReceived #EasilyTop5 #MightBeNumber1 #ArgueWithYourself #ForTheCulture #halftimeshow2024 #halftimeshow #usherraymond #7oClockOnTheDot
❤My self-care Sunday with sisters from other misters, coverers from other mothers - & what a beautiful vibe it was! Thank you #BrunchWithEden #EdenBodyWorks
🖤 D Y I N G • T O • L I V E More than our beloved Black Panther, @chadwickboseman was a real life example of how: 1. You never know the bags people are carrying, even when it looks like their hands are free. Be kind to everyone. 2. Bravery is a verb... it requires intentional action🎬 & courageous movement. 3. Perseverance in the face of fear is where you will discover your greatest purpose & highest self. 4. Character is a choice. Choose wisely. 5. People may not always remember what you did, but they will never forget how you made them feel. 6. Representation matters, & no matter what "they" say or do, your BLACK IS always BEAUTIFUL. 7. Your attitude determines your altitude... not your condition or circumstance. 8. Mindset can take you far or hold you back. Free your mind & the rest will follow. 9. Do what you love, love what you do, but most importantly, do love. 10. Heavy is the head that wears the crown... but also - Keep your head up! #ChadwickBoseman #OurBeloved #BlackPanther #RestInPower #LongLiveTheKing #WakandaForever #SuperHerosNeverDie #MarvelStudios #RepresentationMatters #BlackExcellence #BlackRoyalty #BlackIsBeautiful #CancerSucks #EffCancer #LiveLikeYoureDying #DoItNow #FaithOverFear #KeepGoing But also... #Heartbroken #ItsOkayNotToBeOkay #MentalHealthMatters #BlackMentalHealthMatters #SelfCareMatters #GriefIsReal #HealingIsAProcess #RespectTheProcess #Feel #Breathe #BeStillAndKnow

CLOSING ❌ OUR ❌ DOORS . ...but not our hearts❤ . The wake of our current global crisis has brought about so much change, uncertainty, & loss. The impact that this climate shift is having on all of us is far-reaching... and the domino effect that has trickled down to small businesses is no secret. Sadly, my beloved Part & Parcel is no exception and will be closing, effective May 1, 2020.💙 . As a result, all items on the @partandparcelhq site are just $7 - and you can now snag those AMAZING BOOTS👢for just $25. Should you decide to place an order, please remember to list my name Lakesha Phillips when you checkout as your referring partner. We are still able to make commissions until May 1st.💚 . To quote my dear friend & P&P colleague, Akilah Biederman, "this company and the women that shape it, have had such a massive and lasting impact on my life. I have grown so much in the short amount of time that we were able to be together."💛 . @lauren.b.jonas ...The work you are doing for the plus-size community is so important. Thank you for the opportunity to reach new heights & discover all of my hidden potential.🖤 . I am forever grateful to you @katieiswinnen ...you are still my TWWWCML!
