Toni’s Notes:

Storytelling is the way we connect at the heart!

always dreamed and day-dreamed about a better world for all

women's self-empowerment coach for over three decades

My business didn't start off as a business, but rather a quest to find self-worth. I was abandoned by my mother at nine months of age and raised by a very kind grandmother. Though my grandmother loved me very much and took good care of me, every day of my childhood I wondered where my mother was and why she had no contact with me. This caused me great suffering and confusion. So throughout my teens and early 20s I sought out counseling and spirituality to provide some answers so that I could begin to feel worthy. That quest continued and led me to find an extraordinary life coach. I fell so in love with the process of life coaching that I became a master certified coach myself. Choosing women to be my clients worked beautifully. Through their stories and then helping them I continued to grow in my own self-worth and confidence. I came to understand the tremendous value in being of service to others. Serving others balanced with true self-care is a beautiful gift to offer the world.

collaboration is queen!

New World Women, which is taking the world by storm! New World Women is an online, on-demand academy for women taught by teachers we call Luminaries. We have designed NWW so that women are financially rewarded for practicing self-care, helping others, learning new things and staying inspired. At this point, there is no other model like it in the world.

Linda Conyard is Australia's leading pioneer advocating for socio-political trauma-sensitive change and informed responsiveness to Unnecessary trauma in the Health, Education, Justice, Government, and Private sectors. She recognizes the transgenerational effect collective trauma has on our current society and is at the leading edge of healing and transformation in this field.

Linda’s daughter's trauma at the very young age of 6 months was from a diagnosis of a rare childhood cancer that affects the retina in the eye (she survived and was left blind by 3) and the unfolding and recognition of her own significant and long-term childhood trauma from living in hidden domestic violence led her to her studies and subsequently her own trauma recovery. She became the therapist she wished she could have found. She is determined to change the trajectory of trauma on a collective, cultural, community, family, and individual level.

WELCOME to the show Linda! I am delighted I can share you with the global audience.
