Lynne's Story

Lynne grew up in an underprivileged community in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Her father was an immigrant who taught her that while they may have to work twice as hard to get ahead, it can never be an excuse to fail. Throughout her life, Lynne has put this to the test, working hard for everything she's ever achieved. 

In 1992, at the age of 33, Lynne found out she had a life-threatening illness. At the time, she was a single mom of her six-year-old child. The next day, she went to work to lead her team, while planning for a life expectancy of 2 years or less.  In the midst of this life-changing news, she discovered how to be a leader; how to balance priorities. Most importantly, Lynne learned how critical it is to be clear about your goals and having a plan to achieve them. 

The good news is that she beat the odds.  And the work ethic, motivation, and leadership skills she developed allowed Lynne to pursue a successful 40-year career in financial services. But one day, Lynne's goals shifted when her friends suggested that she leave corporate America behind to focus on her true passion: mentoring and bringing out the best in others. Today, Lynne is proud to share her successes and her failures in the hope that her story will inspire others to be leaders and follow their dreams.
