Hi. I’m Jodi
I’m an entrepreneur, trainer, and writer committed to helping you live your best life.
I have been teaching people the things that I know since I was six years old. I started playing school (I was always the teacher) after school with my first grade friends. Every job that I ever had included me teaching others. I had a lot of jobs that I didn’t love. And then the light bulb went off – I love to teach! The corporate version of a teacher is a trainer. That’s what I became. I worked as a corporate trainer in the financial industry for about 20 years (yikes).
Here are some of things that people who have trained with me have said:
- Jodi was a great teacher who had very relevant examples to go through the content. She was engaging and very inclusive.
- Jodi is an excellent facilitator who actively engages the group and has great feedback for the participants.
- Jodi is an amazing instructor!
- Jodi was very knowledgeable, nice, friendly, helpful, and organized. A+ job,
- Jodi is awesome, keeps everyone interested in the class, and very knowledgeable,
Now, I’m a Certified Success Principles trainer. Through the The Successful Women workshops and programs, I guide women like you through a proven system to create your own success. This is the system that I used to turn my life around after being broke with a mountain of debt.
When I was 19 years old, my mother suffered a massive stroke. And I instantly went from being an irresponsible college kid to my mom’s caregiver. That experience led me to co-authoring the book “Life: The Next Phase. Navigating the Issues of Caring for Your Aging Parents or Loved Ones.” If you want to take a deeper dive, I offer the Walking the Path with Your Aging Loved One online course.
While working with people with aging parents, I discovered that many of them had not thought about their own retirement – beyond the finances. My Retirement by Design online course guides you through making a plan for your retirement years.
If you are in the Tucson, AZ area you can join the Tucson Daughterhood Circle, that I lead. We are a group of women who are family caregivers. We meet monthly to support each other and share resources needed to care for an aging loved one.
I finally went back to school many years after my mom’s stroke. I graduated with an M.B.A in Strategic Leadership and a B.S. in Business Management.
Tucson, AZ has been my home since 2014 when I moved from the San Francisco Bay Area. I love to travel and experience other cultures; spend time outdoors; and enjoy quality time with friends and family.
