Andrea

I am a wife and mother to 4 kids (ages 7, 13, 18, 21). I live in Camas, a great little town in southern Washington state. We moved here recently, and are still getting used to all the rain, but I LOVE the greenery! I love hiking, running, yoga and pretty much anything active. I worked as a Realtor for 10 years. It was a great career and worked well with my family, but now I am being pulled into a different career path and I’m excited to begin my journey as a Life Coach.

My intention for this program is to LEARN. I feel privileged to be able to be one of the first to go through your academy!

Cynthia Gonzalez

I walk into this adventure with a great desire to learn more about how to help others. As an educator for the last 17 years, I’ve had the great honor of teaching children of all ages. In each phase of their academic life, children are challenged with a list of concrete expectations in order to produce a grade that qualifies them for the next level.

What children don’t learn are tools and methods that they can use when obstacles arise throughout the struggles they may encounter in their formative years; Challenges that may result in lifelong limiting beliefs. I know this because I would have benefited from learning ways to overcome the challenges I faced as a child.

I most look forward to being able to incorporate my faith into this journey so that I can continue to be Jesus’ hands and feet on Earth. With this certification and with the time I get to spend with like-minded individuals and, of course, Betsy, I think the possibilities will be endless!

Chelsea Bulack

Originally from Philadelphia, I have been living in Miami since 2013. I have worked as a professional actress, a dance teacher and a History teacher, but I always felt like there was something missing and that I was meant to help people in a deeper way.

I am now in the process of getting a Master's in Mental Health Counseling and now I have the amazing opportunity to be a part of this life coaching program!

My "why" is to be a servant of God and to bring His hope, love and healing to others on a daily basis.

Ivette Lopez

I am the person that God has prepared as the Answer to your Prayers!

If you are tired of feeling hopeless and helpless, I am your Answered Prayer!

If you are living in constant fear, I am your Answered Prayer!

If you are struggling with anxiety and depression, I am your Answered Prayer!

I am Ivette Lopez and I am your faith-filled life coach! I work with people who live in fear and debilitating anxiety by empowering them with practical tools that will enable them to heal, overcome fears and become the best version of themselves so that they may walk by faith, not fear!

I have been married for 28 years, a mother of 3 beautiful children and an educator of the youth for the last 17 years. My life hasn’t always been as beautiful as it is today. You see, at 16, I struggled with depression and was haunted by the fact that death is final, and when you die you don’t come back. This led me to overthink and over analyze everything which then led me to experience a loss of sleep, lack of appetite and a paralyzing fear that did not allow me to truly enjoy any moment.

I learned I had to unbecome what I had become.

And that’s why I love what I do. I get to help others who are experiencing what I experienced to become the person God intended them to be. I help them fall into faith and just be held. God is knocking, all you have to do is answer Him.

“Don’t be afraid, just believe” Mark 5:36

Natalie Pardo

I am a mom to 2 beautiful healthy girls (Thank you God) and a wife to one the most amazing humans (Alex). I am an FIU Grad with a Bachelors in HR Management and Business Management. Before having kids, I worked professionally for Baptist Health, took about 5 years off when I had my first daughter and then went back to work at her school as a Teacher Assistant. I am not returning this school year to the classroom and will be dedicating my time to my family and seeing what else God has in store for me. 

Kevin Cusano

I have been married for over 22 years and I am a father of two kids (daughter 16, son 12). My general "why?" in life has always been to serve God and my family. I have had several callings throughout my life. My passion to play music led me to serve in a music ministry for over 15 years. This experience came with many blessings along the way, but none greater than meeting my wife. Other callings led me to couple career changes on my journey. This has blessed me with the opportunity to meet many great people from different walks of life. Like all of us, I have had struggles along the way. Over time, I've learned to see even those struggles as a blessing since they have allowed me to truly see others and become empathetic to the challenges they face. With this ability, God has called on me several times to informally serve as a life coach to people in need. I found those times to be profoundly rewarding. I look forward to learning as much as I can from Betsy so I can be best prepared to serve those God calls on me to help in the future.
