About

Hi, I’m Coach Diane!

I am a certified John Maxwell coach, speaker, trainer, author, and entrepreneur who is committed to leading people to design a life of joy, peace, and fulfillment by helping them find meaning and purpose (and repurpose) in their life. 

Friedrich Nietzsche German philosopher, said, “He who has a ‘why’ to live for can almost bear any ‘how.’” If you find your purpose, you can overcome any challenge life throws you!

That’s where I come in– my mission is to lead people to be champions and overcome adversity with confidence. 

My Story:

I know what it feels like to endure a setback that derails your dreams. In the summer of 1999, I met one of the most devastating fates one can imagine. My health took a dive, leaving all my limbs over 95% immobile and forcing me into a wheelchair. The disease not only took away my ability to move, but it also rendered me unemployed and divorced and interrupted the life of my two young daughters; at the ages of 7 and 11, they were thrust into the role of my caregivers. I prayed for death.

Amid this horrific circumstance, I somehow found solace. One day I had an epiphany, when  I learned that a setback is an opportunity for a comeback. My transformation has led me to my life purpose: to inspire others to find their purpose and repurpose to live intentional and fulfilling lives!

What I Do: 

I speak to encourage, inspire and motivate. I coach to connect and to be an agent for change. I train to empower transformation; I help you become a better you.

I write 2 blogs (mindofagoddess.wordpress.com and writerworks.wordpress.com); have authored two inspirational books (The Invisible Child: A Memoir and Angels in Action: 17 Inspirational Stories) and articles on personal development, wellness, and leadership; and work to support others make intentional choices to live more fulfilling, successful lives.  

What Can I Do for YOU?

My aim is to encourage and empower human beings to design a structure on their journey to have, be, and do exactly what they want.

To make it happen, I will help you:

Develop and enhance your self-leadership skills for yourself, as well as for the betterment of the world.

Recognize a setback as an opportunity for a comeback.

Build resilience and explore your values through personal development.

Structure your mindset to create confidence and build an unshaken self-image.

Utilize your full potential.

Own yourself and build your self-leadership skills to create a life that matters, to reinforce the possibility that you really can, be, do, and have what you want.
