I had the pleasure of meeting Rochelle, earlier last month, at an event where we were both speakers. Listening to her speak was definitely impressive and moving, and it’s not hard to see why she’s been featured on Oprah! This Own Your Power member is deeply compassionate and it shows that she truly wants to help others and that she loves what she does.
Simone

Name of business: Master Integrative Coach at the Ford Institute

How long have you been in business: Nine Years

What does your business do? I coach people to look at their shadows and discover their limiting beliefs. It’s through that they’re able to heal their hearts to move forward, so they can live an extraordinary life. All my work is right from the heart. It’s truly all about having a healthy relationship with yourself, and healthy relationships with others. I help to hold each person personally accountable so they can achieve the highest evolution of who they are. As a coach, I continue to do my own work as well.

Any interesting fact you can share about your industry? Yes, this work isn’t for everybody, but everybody needs to do this work. Our lives are constant works in progress.

Most popular problem you help people solve? How to start loving themselves, UNCONDITIONALLY, and also forgive themselves.

How do you stay motivated? By doing my own work and having coaches hold me accountable as I evolve. It helps me expand my own capacity to work with and hold serve others with love and compassion. I’m in a year long course, as well. This is my passion, so that’s how I stay motivated. I surround myself with like-minded people, those who I can also support.

Biggest pet peeve in business? People who cancel at the last minute.

You know the expression, “You can’t take it with you” …well, if you could, what would ‘it’ be? Emotionally, I know what I’ll take and that’s the peace I feel inside myself, which you can’t put a price on. As well, just knowing I helped millions of people in teaching them to learn to love themselves and as well as others. And most importantly I will have taken God with me. God has shown me everything I needed —  trust, love, empowerment, forgiveness, faith, and acceptance.  My legacy is to leave this awareness with my family, and especially my granddaughter; also how to have fun and laughter with my friends, co-workers, and students.   Also, one more thing is to have God Use Me All Up.

It’s sadly time for your last meal on earth…what would it be?It would still have to be healthy, so I love seafood — lobster, shrimp, oysters, clams, squid, pasta, French bread, great red wine; and for desert, great chocolate cheese with more red wine to drink it all down.

Have you used Social Networking to gain new contacts/business? If so what have been any results? Well, I do use Facebook, and I’m signed up for Twitter, but I don’t know how to use it for business yet. However, thanks to joining Own Your Power’s social network, I just found an assistant to help me with this!

Most exciting moment that you got your time to shine?

When I was on The Oprah Winfrey Show, and in a few magazines as well. Oh, and when I was a teenager, I was on The Dick Clark Show and he interviewed ME! And, when I became a grandma …

What’s in your CD player/Ipod right now? My CD player has six different things, from Deepak Chopra, Michael Bublé, to Rock and Roll music mixes put together for me.

If you could have superpowers, what would you want? To have my loved ones stay healthy throughout their lives, as well as, myself;  and to financially make a lot of money for myself, family, friends, the world. To stop war and turn things into communication, forgiveness and loving one another; and to agree to disagree, and by learning from one another to create peace in the world.  I’d like to find cures for different diseases, and clean up our environment, too.
