GUEST BIO:

Diana Elizabeth Jordan likes to joke that she was “meant to be an actress” because she entered the world in high dramatic fashion. Her doctors worked on her for 45 minutes before she started breathing on her own. Diagnosed with cerebral palsy (which mildly affects her speech and gait) around age 2, Diana grew up conquering adversity and not letting anything stop her from pursuing her dreams and goals. She founded and opened The Rainbow Butterfly Café in October 2014.

She began pursuing her acting career in Chicago after graduating with a bachelor’s degree in Theater and Media Arts from the University of Kansas. Following a successful career working in Chicago Theater, she became the first actress with a disability to be accepted into the MFA Acting Program at California State University Long Beach. She obtained her MFA in Acting in 2001. During her career, Diana has been featured in over 30 plays, television, and short and features films.

Continuing our month of love series:

Valencia Griffin-Wallace interviews Contessa Louise Cooper.  Contessa will tell us her tips and lessons learned while living her purpose and dating.

GUEST BIO:

Contessa Louise Cooper’s rise to influence is brave and inspiring. Two years ago, she was a consumer, reader and audience participant just like most of us. Her random attendance at a book-writing event changed her life forever. Cooper never figured herself an author. Being selected at the event, she had just three days to turn her chronicles into a book.

Most of us would have cringed at the challenge of writing a book in three days. She embraced the test as an opportunity to change her life. The result? A bestseller. Recently, Cooper appeared in an episode of the “T.D. Jakes Television Show” on OWN (the Oprah Winfrey Network) where she discussed digital infidelity and online flirting.  She is also involved with two literary projects, “Cuffing Season” and “After Dark.”

She advocates for women to become authorpreneurs, where she mentors them to transition  their writing into a business. She is gaining popularity as a freelance writer, a coach and speaker. Cooper also discusses women’s issues in an uncut format in her Facebook group. She is a mother of two adult children, including an autistic son. She resides in DC Metro area after short stints of living globally on the isles of the Philippines and Greece.

Altovise Pelzer, author of "The PRESS", a series of self-help books, discusses her healing process.  

Pelzer, who has had to heal from difficult situations and life experiences such as the molestation of her two daughters, talks about how writing helped her get through it all.

Valencia Griffin-Wallace, host of Healing U and Define U Radio, is joined by the Healing U Advocates (Tosha Dearbone, Positive Express and Connie-Lee Bennett, Meraki Therapy) to discuss how you can heal from situations such as this and why it is so important.

 

GUEST BIO:

Altovise Pelzer, the author of "The PRESS", a series of self-help books for businesses, women and families, is the CEO of AP Business Consultants. Born and raised in Philadelphia, PA, Altovise was encouraged to write at the age of eight by her grandmother and she later found that developing a love of writing would get her through many difficult situations. What she didn't know, was that writing would also be a catalyst for her business, a gateway to connecting with youth and an opportunity to advocate for those who feel as though they have lost their voice.  Altovise is currently strengthening her passion of motivating women and youth through speaking, her holiday anti bullying youth initiative #GiftsForChange and in the pages of her first book series titled "The Press: Eight Stages of Pressing through difficult situations" She finds inspiration for her book series and conference topics from life experiences surrounding the molestation of her two daughters, fighting homelessness, the loss of her mother, learning to trust again and love. She encourages both women and youth to #KeepPRESSing no matter what circumstances they may find themselves in.
