Somewhere Out There is Someone Calling My Name

Relationships change people, for the good and the bad. When trying to be a positive influence in someone's life, be sure your interactions are intuitive, personal, and most importantly, consistent. This is especially important when working with people who suffer from pain and loneliness. Too much pain and too much loneliness leads to hopelessness. Without hope, no one can live up to their full potential. So, when someone’s calling your name, show up. What’s the best that could happen?

NOTE: This presentation is from Jodie's TEDx Hilton Head Women's talk and suitable for both small and large audiences.

Do the WRITE Thing - Preserving Legacies

Brand your busines, build your credibility, provide value to your audience, increase profits, broaden your reach, reuse content—all great reasons to write a book. However, the best reason is because it cannot be preserved, published, produced, or performed if it doesn't exist. Participants learn how to design an enjoyable and productive writing life.

Half or full day workshops are most productive, but Jodie inspires audiences with her expertise in a keynote as well.

Coloring Therapy for the Soul in Prison

The process of creativity, making something with one’s own hands, is a powerful experience with undeniable therapeutic benefits.

To name a few…
• Pain relief
• Relaxation
• Recreation
• Stress relief

• Self-expression
• Acquiring new skills
• Renewed confidence

A visual, interactive presentation to be treasured and remembered!
