Do you want to DREAM BIG? Do you have a fire in your belly? Do you want to feel motivated? From Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) to Public Speaker, Maureen "Mo" Jones made a natural transition to the power of using her voice to inspire and motivate others to follow their dreams. Mo understands what it means to have that fire in the belly to do more with life, but there was always that four letter word: FEAR. FEAR - the easy way out, the easy distraction, and the easiest way to stay in your comfort zone. But there is no growth in FEAR and there is no magic in FEAR. Mo learned to listen to the fire in her belly by using the POWER of her VOICE to be FEAR-less. Let Mo speak to you and your organization and open up endless possibilities. Whether you’re a youth, athletic, corporate, or women’s organization, Mo will uplift your team to new heights and make them feel they have the power to accomplish anything they desire. We all have the power to tap into what makes us great. Mo learned to listen to the fire in her belly. Let Mo inspire you and your team to do the same. What would you do if FEAR was NOT an option?

I have recently recovered from Glandular Fever, which I believe was brought about by stress and anxiety. This is turn was exacerbated by a divorce in my mid 30's leaving me as a professional Project Manager with irregular hours and children to care for. But prior to that, the seeds were sown in my childhood. I have written a book based on how I work with my clients in my hypnotherapy practice. I now work at an emotional level - using them as signs to highlight were I need to look for the clues that will help me help my client to reset the past and start reliving now. I love the way that my clients report feeling happier, calmer, more peaceful than before they came to see me! And I want to share this message with the world.
