Jennifer’s Bio
Jennifer Shotwell is a field reporter and radio host whose love of the French language has taken her to four francophone countries – France, Canada, Haiti, and Burkina Faso – where she has conducted research and launched her literacy project Little French Books. An emerging multimedia journalist, she captures stories through audio, video, and printed content. She also decorates cakes on the side, just to keep life sweet.
Patricia’s Bio
Patricia started her business with a simple goal: to share her philosophy that “life doesn’t have to be a struggle” and to help others work toward and live fully engaged lives, unafraid to challenge the status quo and do things they only ever dreamed before. Over the last several years, through the practice of self-discipline and awareness, she has come to know that this is possible.
Her approach is based on three fundamentals outlined in her book, Growing Bold: How to Overcome Fear, Build Confidence, and Love the Life you Live – Goal Setting, Mindset Shifting, and Confidence Building. Patricia thoroughly enjoys helping her clients move out of their comfort zones and into fully experiencing their lives, during one-on-one and group coaching sessions.
She earned her Certified Professional Coach (CPC) and Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner (ELI-MP) credentials from the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC). Patricia loves helping people see things differently, so they can do things differently and experience bold, exciting new things. This education has increased her ability to help people get from where they are to where they want to be.
Patricia recently left a corporate project management job to pursue her coaching, speaking, and writing career full-time. She is the host the Discovering Courage Podcast where, weekly, she explores how ordinary people have gotten clear on the non-negotiables in their lives and are now living lives filled with purpose and passion. Patricia is walking the talk and currently living in the South of France, pursuing her dreams.
