What Dr. Julianne Believes

About Julianne

I love variety in life! I like to think that I LIVE LARGE. In 2002, I decided I wanted to stop the world and get off of my treadmill life! I chose to live for 4 months in Avignon, France. To say that was life changing doesn’t begin to express how that experience helped me discover my best self. On my return, my teen-age son even told me, “I like you better now, Mom!” Score! 

Travel is a priority of mine. My daughter and her family live in Bangladesh so when traveling to visit them, I tour my way there and back. I’ve traveled to over 2 dozen countries, and counting. 

When not traveling, I love to walk, hike, kayak, bike, and take ballroom dance lessons! I stay fit by working with a weights trainer twice a week. 

Over the years, I have been a buyer for a bridal salon; a wedding millinery designer; a professional storyteller; a crime prevention specialist; a President of the MN Crime Prevention Association; a neighborhood development director; a lay presider; a leader in Marriage Encounter; a wedding prep and rehearsal director; board member and speaker with the International Conference for the Divorced and Separated; and I started The Spiritual Joy Institute. I consulted with cities, churches, and organizations in the US and Canada. And, for 11 years, I had the honor to co-design and train facilitators to teach educators the importance of Absent Narratives (stories left out of the mainstream). I have coached men and women executives worldwide, as well as people seeking a companion to listen, support, and believe in them. 

Because of my life experiences I now choose to solely coach those with aspirations to LIVE LARGE and Be their Humazing best self!
