Johnnetta McSwain, Ph.D., MSW, from the mean streets of Birmingham, Alabama and from GED to Ph.D., Johnnetta McSwain, beat the odds. She is the recipient of the Emmy Award winning documentary, “The Road Beyond Abuse”, expert in Child Sexual Abuse (CSA), Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) and Sexual Violence (SV), published author, “Rising Above the Scars”, Victim Empowerment Specialist, Adjunct Seminar Instructor and Field Liaison at Clark Atlanta University (CAU) Whitney M. Young, Jr., School of Social Work, Coach, Program Development/workshop facilitator. She is an International Speaker extraordinaire who tells it like it is with wit, charm, and wisdom. Wearing her fabulous stilettos, she aids to empower and inspire individuals to move from hopelessness to hope by becoming of aware of their cycles that impede their life and take action to break them to reach their fullest potential in their life. Born to an alcoholic mother and an absent father, the odds were unceremoniously stacked against her even as she drew her first breath. By the innocent age of five, she was viciously raped and incessantly battered by her three uncles while in the custody of her grandparents. The all too real horror of Johnnetta’s formative years was not just her reality. Her slightly older sister and male cousin were also made to bear ruthless physical, sexual, and psychological abuse. As young, vulnerable children, they were bound, beaten, choked, threatened and forced to perform horrific sex acts by their uncles. At the tender age of eight, when most little girls can enjoy carefree security within the sanctuary of their homes, Johnnetta had contracted syphilis in hers. The constant ravaging of Johnnetta’s body and mind served as a daily reminder that she was not wanted and not loved. Never allowed the liberty to make the missteps that often characterize adolescence, she was forced to sit outside stripped bare in the cold elements of the winter night. This was Johnnetta’s punishment for wetting the bed and resulted in a severe case of pneumonia. As she entered her teen years, her victimization continued, now perpetrated against her by the men her mother brought home. In the absence of the love and guidance that every child has the right to enjoy, Johnnetta began shoplifting at twelve years old and eventually dropped out of high school at seventeen. By nineteen years old, she had given birth to her first son, applied for housing assistance, food stamps/ welfare; continuing in the warped tradition of her family. In the harsh world of the streets, she was introduced to drug dealers and started dealing drugs. At twenty-six, she bore her second son. In 2002, age 32, she packed up her house, rented the largest truck and drove to Georgia twice in one night. In 2003, at age 33, she entered college and 2015, she was the first doctor in her family, breaking every generational curse. Her objective is to empower victims of abuse, in order to transition from victim to victor.

Everything is an opportunity! Seeing the world this way seems “Pollyanaish” to many. The enlightened minority, though, consider this mindset to be the foundation of their business success and personal happiness. They don’t see winning or happiness as goals. Rather, they are the outcomes that naturally flow from intentionally striving to be your best self. Success for them has little to do with what others expect, and everything to do with what their inner wisdom has told them. I work with people seeking to see, embrace, and take advantage of the opportunities that life presents. The work we do together is particularly beneficial to those in sales and marketing roles, although anyone wishing to know what success and leadership truly means to them will benefit. My work leverages 30+ years of experience working with sales and marketing leaders in the medical device arena, and intensive, life-long training as a coach and mentor. Imagine what your life will be like when you’re completely focused only on what really matters! When you’re able to tap into your customers’ core energy and align it with your own, consider how the abundance that results will change both your life and others’ lives! Let’s connect, explore what’s between where you are and that vision, and create a plan to transform those obstacles into stepping stones to your most awesome, successful self!

I’m the Pragmatic Career and Lifestyle expert who helps people navigate their business lives to actually coincide with their true passions because, frankly, life is just too short and too precious to wake up one day and wonder – what have I done with my life?! I owned and operated a staffing and executive placement firm for over 25 years. I coached so many people struggling to find their place – make enough money, enjoy their daily work-life, find time for family. And although I was an entrepreneur and outside of the corporate box, I found myself being influenced by that mindset through serving it – 110%; which is how I serve anything I’m involved with – from boards to business to best buddies. I’m evolving with new thoughts, new processes, new ways of communication, all of which benefit my associates while, at the same time, guiding me towards both personal and professional development to live my life at this amazing level of joy! Along with my other projects - this is nearest and dearest to my heart.... I have been coaching and mentoring all kinds of "kids" for over 15 years. This is my joy and passion and the kids sense it. I teach real world topics to navigate the world of business and work. I am a frequent guest speaker at community organizations and local high schools and colleges such as Santa Monica College, USC Marshall and USC Annenberg. All children are beginning to want control over their own lives. They want to pursue their dreams, whatever they may be. They want to hear that it is possible – even in today’s climate. My kids learn that it truly IS possible if they are coachable, committed, and want to develop conviction, persistence and a mindset that Failure is not an option. With that, we make their dreams and visions a reality. Specialties: Personal Development Internet Marketing Coaching Mentoring Training Youth Life Skills Business Development
