A retiree from corporate America as a business executive, and a former educator and entrepreneur, Pam now follows her full-time passion: creating programs and facilitating discussions which promote self-understanding and sense of purpose.Pam's teaching experience ranges from preschool through junior high and adult education. She is a Certified SoulCollage(R) Facilitator, and uses that and her love of books to launch many group discussions. Her "discovery of Self(R)" programs are created out of a desireto bring people together through conversation. Not only do these discussions illustrate the power of listening to one another, but also how the sharing of ideas brings about individual and collective discovery of purpose. She has conducted numerous women's leadership workshops under Essential Leadership, and is currently working on a "Warriorship" Training program, based on the concept of the Shambhala warrior. It encompasses individual wisdom as the gift of service to the world-strongly tied to discovery of Self(R). A mom of two grown children and a grandma of four, Pam resides between Reno and Lake Tahoe with Gary, her husband of thirty-six years, and, of course, Gabbi.
