Relationships That Matter. Empower Inspire Direct

Who Am I and Why I DO What I DO

WHO AM I AND WHY I DO WHAT I DO? “Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors where there were only walls.” Author Joseph Campbell 1904-1987 I help people that feel stuck in their present circumstances by guiding them with inspirational empowerment and assist them in direct and desirable changes for their personal and professional development. In 1988, I heard the calling to help others when I witnessed the aftermath of many senseless shootings and killings in Staten Island New York. I began my volunteer work with the local Police Athletic Association (PAL). My volunteer works with PAL later lead me to join the local Community Mediation Center in Staten Island; where I later formally trained as a certified mediator in 1994. I have practiced mediation for 18 years, mostly Pro-Bono case in Magistrate Courts thereafter. In 1994 I was featured in both a local Florida radio and television stations as an advisor and later had my own talk show “Simply Metaphysical” which was simulcast on both stations. I averaged about four thousand calls per broadcast. I attended many Colleges, and Universities searching for my bliss. I have studied many schools of thought both academic and metaphysical. What knowledge I could not access in the classroom I attained by personal research and implementation. Today I am coaching and consulting clients on strategic planning for business and personal growth; as well as conflict and risk management. I have generated over ½ million dollars in income for one of my top clients; as well as provided resources for sales training and customer care programs. I am challenged each and every day by stereotypes, prejudices; as well as religious, cultural and gender stigmas. Yes, I even battled with my own identity issues. Not to mention the family and financial conflicts that depressed, stressed, and oppressed me. However, I am happy and grateful to be in a good place now. I am feeling free to empower, inspire, and direct others. I've changed; I have empowered myself and I am growing in my development with positive self-awareness each day. I have learned techniques and resources from many of today’s most recognized motivational teachers. I have developed a 90 day system to promote positive change and want to share my story and success with others, because it is my bliss to do so; this is who I am and why I do what I do.
