Are you destined for success?   I am an author, radio talk show host, health coach, motivational speaker, blogger, businesswoman.   I overcame insurmountable circumstances that would cause most people to just give up and quit – but didn't! After publishing my memoir, Battered Hope – I became an active blogger and was introduced to hundreds of people who have incredible stories -- choosing to be a victor instead of a victim.   I am passionate about sharing their stories. There are a few other things I am passionate about. I rescue dogs and my blog shares a lot of humorous, heart-warming and heart-wrenching stories of what it was like to rescue 30 dogs.   I am passionate about health and work as a health coach teaching people how to build and maintain a strong immunity. Over 40 years ago I was given 2 years to live – I found my own cure and I'm still here.   I am passionate about public speaking and travel extensively sharing my inspirational life story. I may have walked where you have walked. I know the pain of losing a child. I understand the stress of trying to adopt a child. I have been kidnaped, raped and left for dead. My husband and I lost the business we built from nothing to corrupt partners. My husband was falsely accused of white collar crime and had to serve time. He also was in a car accident that left him disabled, over 20 years ago.   I am passionate about love, family and my faith in God. I would never have made it through many years of trauma without my faith.   I am passionate about humor and strongly believe that laughter can get you through almost anything.   My guests come from all walks of life and each one of them will share their life lessons with you on how they transformed their lives. Many of their stories are unbelievable but TRUE. They will give you their secrets to success and a message of hope, encouragement and inspiration.   I will be broadcasting at least two shows a week and I hope that you will find encouragement, humor, and secrets to success from each of my guests.   Nothing is off limits on my show.
