HI YA BEAUTIFUL!

I'm Gwendolen

As a biz coach, I empower 35K+ International online sistahood of overwhelmed female entrepreneurs that are determined to start and scale a business and tell their biz fears kicks rocks using my 3 signature biz principles (strong spiritual foundation, solid-proven biz strategy and supportive sistahood) so they can turn their awesome ideas and dreams into a profitable biz they love

I've added extra images throughout this page and my official media bio at the bottom for you to use in assistance with media publications and journalism efforts. It is truly my joy guiding women to become more self-confident, financially independent and FINALLY say, "I'm Living My Best Blessed Life!"

I've been on this Girls Trip to Success for 35+ years working in the world of Human Resources and Female Entrepreneurship. And even though I was able to receive a $5M joint-venture client contract within 6 months of starting my business...my road to success was riddled with a ton of debt, living paycheck to paycheck, domestic violence and sexual assault. I almost gave up on my purpose and dream to be a business owner and breaking the generational curse of poverty...does my story sound a bit familiar to ya?

This is why in 2017, I became a business coach for female entrepreneurs; I wanted them to know it's ok for them to share their stories of struggle and learn how to turn that biz fears and dreams into a positive profitable business opportunity just like I did. Watching hard-working, well deserved sistas like you create your first social media post, Facebook Live and make your first sale confirms I'm fulfilling my life's purpose. My goal is to empower you to crush your biz fears, start that dream biz and scale beyond what you planned- and I'm here to help you become more self-confident and financially independent because we can and we are Impossible to Possible Women! Join our sistahood which is going to prepare you to achieve more of the goals you dreamed about this year.

Experience the Empowerment, Freedom and Sistahood yourself!  

WHAT IS IT THAT I DO

At the time I'm writing this bio...

I've had the pleasure to have over 36 years of hands-on experience in Education and Training, Conflict Resolution, Business Management, Social Services, Behavioral Management, Equal Employment, Alternate Dispute Resolution, Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence. 

I'm also the blessed founder of the, "It's OK to Tell My Story" Movement and the international community for Impossible to Possible Women. We're all about empowering female entrepreneurs to balance their peace and purpose using spiritual foundations, business strategies and supportive sistahoods. My mission is helping women business owners with getting past biz fears=peace stealers using easy-to-digest detailed strategies based on the 7 main fears female entrepreneurs typically face during the entrepreneurial journey (money, mindset, sales, systems, support, visibility and lifestyle). I do this so they can create a quick, but impressive online presence, become more self-confident, financially independent and best of all build a spiritual foundation with God- AND now we're here to help you too!

I use my signature coaching programs, membership clubs and spiritual foundations to help my clients go from struggling, overwhelmed, in-debt, fear, shame, guilt, low self-esteem, low productivity, decreased self-confidence, existing in negative workplace environments and everything in between to becoming Wilder, Successful & Non-Negotiable Entrepreneurs that are self-confident, assertive, financially independent and creating healthier workplaces.

People come to me with such passions as…

  • Learning how to paint using acrylic paint

  • Telling the story of abuse for inner forgiveness and healing

  • Crafting a brand story to attract ideal clients and readers

  • Writing a book that changes peoples lives

  • Starting a business to gain government contracts

  • Getting interviewed by local media to increase visibility

  • Giving energetic informative Guest Speaks...in front of hundreds

  • Successfully scaling a business with visibility and credibility

  • Creating courses that leads to high-paying clients

  • Collaborating with key influencers within their city, state, country and internationally

  • Educating employees on positive corporate behaviors to increase productivity and profits

  • and more!

Based on my own personal experiences dealing with spiritual growth, entrepreneurship, writing and trauma... I love leaning into my God given talents and purpose- helping people like you that are willing to learn- exactly how to overcome any obstacle and turn it into a profitable opportunity so you can,

"Live Your Best Blessed Life!"

The process I use as foundation for all of my programs is signature to my brand and very simple to implement, work for all entrepreneurs/authors regardless of what stage you are in and all it takes to Kickass is passion!

 

My signature Success Strategies are here to help change your life!

I'll show you how to "Turn Your Hot Ass Mess into Wilder Success!"

 by identifying your #1 obstacle, root causes, reusable value and solutions so you can Attain Your Wilder Success and help your community thrive beyond your wildest imagination. I'm here to help you learn, "You Can Make ALL Things Possible and Something Good IS Coming From This!"

ARE THESE YOUR DREAMS TOO...

I'm here as an example to show that YOU too can Attain Wilder Success. I'm a witness that dreams like ours do come true!

I Show My Clients EXACTLY How to Attain Their Wilder Success

All I ask for them to do is ,"Tell Your Story" and "Properly Position for Success" by working with me so I can..

...I help them Build a Business Based on Passion so they can meet the needs of their ideal clients/readers and achieve that financial freedom they desire.

Maybe you're the human relations director in a huge corporation and need a fresh new way to administer compliance with workplace violence; but you just can't think of any other way to keep the masses interested.

For you, it's not about making a ton of money or checking another box...it's about the value you give, the lives you impact, the wisdom you share. Telling your story through a product, program or service is what motivates you everyday.

So much so for you entrepreneurs and authors, you feel as if it's an inner devine calling and you can't rest until it's done. And for those surviving abuse, I totally understand the yearning desire to Tell Your Story not for anyone else, but for yourself and your peace of mind to start the road to inner forgiveness.

That was my passion, too…

I Suffered from Low Self-Confidence and Financial Struggles After My Abuse...

But, I didn't let that stop me from making the impossible POSSIBLE and Building a Business Based on My Passion, Giving Value and Collaborating with some of the world's Top Industry Leaders.

In my mid-30s, I was living my dream (retired from the military after 21 years and being awarded a $5M Joint Venture Government Contract), had a luxury Audi vehicle, took international vacations, held parties almost every weekend, lived in beautiful 3,000 square foot home, 187+ employees working for me and had a beautiful office "floor" overlooking the gorgeous San Antonio TX Riverwalk. So, why was I so unhappy?

 

I was living in an abusive household and workplace at the hands of my ex-partner. I was successful in my professional brand, but drowning in my personal brand.

I always knew I experienced abuse for a reason. But, I didn’t believe I was supposed to be living in fear, shame, guilt or poverty as a result of the abuse I experienced both on my job, in my home and I knew the bullying, name calling, sexual abuse, isolation, etc. would not lead to any type of happiness.

And, if you’re reading this right now; maybe you can resonate with what I’m saying.

 

I can remember the day I thought my life literally was coming to an end at the hands of my abuser and I thought to myself; this is it? This is how it’s going to end?

I knew I was a good person and my life was meant for more, because I wanted more. And I remember praying to God if he could just help me to escape my negative situations I’d do my best to use my experiences to help others leave their traumatic, negative environments whether it was a result of work or home matters.

So, I decided to give it all up

 

for my sanity, peace and safety. I dissolved the business, went to domestic violence therapy with the Family Violence Prevention Services Program, used online resources from the national non-profit Break the Silence, connected with business specialists and mentors...all who helped me to find my true identify, awareness, control and passion. They taught me to live in the moment, dream for the future and enjoy the present by relying on my strengths; telling my story, self-management and business acumen.

Using my new three tier approach, I learned to properly position myself to not only create a new and better life for myself, but for my family and community.

And I realized, I had a unique gift to help others leave abusive relationships, develop positive corporate behaviors, find their passion, tell their story and build a better life for themselves doing what they love.

It was like hitting the jackpot.

So, started to put in the work and attended every webinar, masterclass, program, conference, etc. I could to become more proficient in my skill to better help my clients.

When I connected with my mentors initially, they had no clue who I was or what I'd been through with healing and recover from dealing with my past domestic violence and sexual assault. But, I decided I wasn't going to be just another class attendee; I was going to be their number one learner...absorbing as much as I could.

And before I knew it, they later became my besties, close friends, collaborators and  referral resource. I love supporting business owners (even gurus) that are aligned with my passion.

There's no greater high for me than giving value (directly or indirectly ) and watching my client's transformation...freak-n awesome!

And before I knew what happened, I became a trusted agent in their inner circle...so neat.

And today, I love saying these amazing people are not just my business associates, but are my true friends.

See Why I Say...This is My Best Blessed Life!
