Dona is a bestselling Author on Amazon and Success Coach. She believes anything is possible and everything is transformable! Over the last 25 years she has worn many hats including being a Contemplative Psychotherapist, University Professor, Midwife, and Momma of 7. She trained in the ancient Hawaiian Mindfulness practice of Ho’oponopono over 15 years ago, when she and her family lived on the island of Kauai. It was required training for Psychotherapists. Ultimately, she has inspired people to unleash their own unique Mojo; thus achieving their personal, professional, and financial goals. She lives with her family in Scottsdale where the owls hoot, the coyotes howl, and the sunrises and sunsets are breathtaking each and every day. Fresh out of college at CU Boulder, she took a job as a “Speaker Coach” for CareerTrack Seminars, traveling around the country from seminar to seminar to “Coach” writers and speakers such as Jack Canfield, Tom Peters, and more. It was her job to help them create a “pitch” within their own Mojo so that they generated the expected sales. Since then she has been Coaching all of her clients to do this in every aspect of their lives. Dona believes that when we live life from our own unique Mojo, formula, or blueprint for success….Magic and Miracles happen!
