HEAR FROM THOSE WHO'VE TRANSFORMED THEIR LIVES
"Ja'net coached me through a very challenging situation and helped me develop an action plan which I implemented the next day. I was able to resolve my issue quickly and successfully."
Deitra Jackson – President & Founder, Jackson Coaching Services, LLC
"This coaching helped me to layout the map of what I needed to do to reach the next level of "Me" and now I am following that map. I recommend Dr. Bishop as a coach. She has a way of reaching people that is not commonly seen in today's society."
Yasmin S. – College Student
"I've been in a dark, self-defeating place for a long time and didn't know how to get out of it as I was transitioning from the military. I felt an immediate change. This has been a life exhilarating experience and I look forward to learning more about joy in my journey as I navigate through "Boots to Breakthrough" and help my wounded self become a loving adult with a fulfilling life."
