Training and Background:
Certified Professional Life Coach with extensive coaching experience. (5 years full time)
Graduated from the International Coaching Academy
program accredited by the International Coaching Federation. Trained in these coaching areas: transition (major life changes), wellness and life balance, spiritual coaching, executive coaching, and business building.
ICA provides excellent training, but what she has found missing in the coach training industry is an awareness of right brain /creative people and their unique barriers and unique ways to move forward. Being of 'right mind' herself, she has created a coaching process that works for right brain dominant clients and allows left brain clients to incoorporate creative thinking tools into their coaching process.
To learn more and to support her own style, Janet became a Certified Kaizen-Muse Creativity Coach and Liscensed Creative Muse Group Facilitator www.themuseisin.com
International trainer for Muse Group Facilitator in collaboration with Jill Badonsky.

The ripple effect of just one individual accessing and implementing their inner
wisdom, soul given gifts, and their unique best ways to move forward is enough to change the world.

Not a great firespinner, but a firespinner none the less.
