About Janet

I know what it's like to play small.

For years, I chased the version of success everyone told me I should want:

The corporate job with the title.

The benefits package.

The corner office.

I once purchased a blazer I thought was ugly

because I thought it represented a more 'professional' version of me.

Spoiler alert: it didn't make me feel anything but uncomfortable.

And one day, I boarded a plane for a business trip to attend a conference, and found myself mortified.

I couldn't buckle the seatbelt and had to ask the flight attendant for a seatbelt extender.

That day, my entire life changed.

And for the next two years, I transformed everything.

I shed 100 pounds.

I quit my corporate job.

I re-launched my entrepreneur journey.

And I wrote my 10th book, 'Let Her Glow.'

And now I'm on a mission to help women everywhere stop playing small.

And start glowing again.

Some things I am proud of:

I have had the opportunity to speak to more than 20 organizations in the last 24 months

on the topics of leadership, emotional intelligence, body language, and visibility.

I was featured on Good Morning Texas and Texas Today sharing my story.

I was recently named President Elect of the National Speaker Association of North Texas,

and I also won the Last Story Standing competition and am the North Texas Chapter Champion!

I am also a finalist for the North America's Next Greatest Speaker competition,

and will take the stage in August 2026 at the eWomen ICON stage in Dallas!

In addition to 27+ years of experience in both corporate leadership and entrepreneurship,

I am also certified in Emotional Intelligence, DISC Personalities, and an ordained minister.

I've hosted more than 100 transformational women's events over the years,

from conferences and summits to incredible retreats.

I am also the proud mom to 3 adult children, two adult step-daughters, and a proud mother-in-law.

In 2020, I was promoted to Gigi - probably my favorite title ever.

I believe too many women spend their lives waiting.

Waiting until they're confident.

Waiting until they're ready.

Waiting until someone chooses them.

My work is about helping them choose themselves.
