Education
John Maxwell Coaching certificate
Coaching program taught by Christian Simpson and Valerie Burton
2021
The John Maxwell Team is a platform where you can learn coaching, speaking and business skills. There is a lifetime of learning available here. The path I chose to start with was the business/coaching track.
The John Maxwell team has been infused with a DNA that finds its origin in the life and leadership philosophy of our founder, Dr. John C. Maxwell.
Our calling is to “Add value to people all over the world.”
Our core beliefs center around the one core truth that “Leadership is influence, nothing more, nothing less.”
Our culture is articulated in what we call our Culture Values. These 10 values, taught and modeled by John Maxwell, articulate the common DNA of the John Maxwell Team member as reflected in their daily life and leadership. These values inform our policies, procedures, activities, interaction with one another, represent our brand and the way we contribute to our community. (from the JMT website)

Brain Health Coaching Certificate
Amen University
Taught by Dr. Amen
2020
I found the brain to be a fascinating study. We certainly are fearfully and wonderfully made.
We learned about brain injuries, Alzheimer's disease, anxiety, depression, ADD, ADHD, etc., how they affect the brain, and what we can do to help our brains function better.
Trauma can damage the brain, but there is hope for those with unfortunate circumstances that make this happen.

Multiple instructors
2018
In this program, I learned that being healthy is not just about the food on your plate. The circle of life includes many areas of life; examples are relationships, social life, health, business, exercise, and spirituality.
We are all unique. Bio-Individuality is the concept that no one diet or lifestyle works for everyone. Sometimes all we need to do to become healthy is to change our lifestyle.

I learned how to refine and expand my coaching skills in order to better relate to my clients and inspire change. Bio-Individuality is key in coaching as we are all fearfully and wonderfully made. We are unique individuals and we have the privilege of figuring out what works best for you.
