| Description: | About me: I`m a happily married mom of two little girls, Grace who is five and Miranda who is two. Years before I even met my husband I knew I wanted to be married someday, have kids, and be home with them -- most of the time. I also knew I`d need a professional outlet, so I started planning ahead. I have always wanted to be a teacher. When I was six years old my favorite game was school, but only if I could be the teacher! Well, fast forward to today and I have been teaching communication skills for the last 10 years and I LOVE it! A little over two years ago, when 32 weeks pregnant with my youngest daughter, I became very ill with a disease known as HELLP Syndrome. Basically my blood was toxic, my liver was ready to burst and according to my doctor, I was 4-8 hours from death. My baby had to be delivered by emergency c-section and I spent Christmas week recovering in ICU while my baby was in the NICU. I didn`t see her in person until she was three days old. (Compare that to my no drug/no intervention midwife hospital birth of my 1st baby and wow-- did I experience both ends of the spectrum!) When I got home I did some soul searching about why I am still here. I know that my life`s mission is to teach other people how to communicate better; it`s the path I`ve been on for a long time. That`s when I decided I needed to do more than just teaching in the classroom. In early 2006 I began my consulting business and have found many new ways to help others. About my Business: In my business I do public speaking, present teleseminars, and work with clients privately in order to help them develop powerful communication skills so they can be happier and more successful at work and at home. Earlier this year I completed a survey of my clients and subscribers and they told me they wanted to learn more about persuasive communication. As a result of that survey, I developed a free e-course on my website called Increase Business by Communicating Your Credibility. In this e-course you will learn important factors to increasing your credibility, which will almost automatically increase your business. You`ll also learn: **How to analyze your audience to determine what parts of your message are most important to them **The 3 C`s of Credibility and how to develop each one for yourself **What 3 types of materials are most important when presenting various types of crucial information Sign up for FREE at: www.communicationtransformation.com/creating-credibility-ecourse.html |
