Julie Traina's Bio

Julie Traina is a certified life coach, mother of five, and former teacher with a master’s degree in education. Long fascinated with personal development and the power of perspective, Traina found her life forever altered when her 44-year-old husband suffered a debilitating stroke in 2014. Reimagining a new future and rebuilding a life for herself and her family required her to lean into her belief in the power we possess to embrace, rather than fear change, and find joy, even in difficult circumstances.

As a life coach, Traina relies on her natural ability to connect with clients, and her background as a teacher to share techniques and lessons that transform lives. In her professionally produced workshops, Traina reaches broader audiences with engaging case studies and easy-to-grasp tools.

Traina's passion lies in guiding women through midlife and helping them thrive in the second half of life with excitement, purpose, and yes...joy.
