As a Marriage and family therapist, Health psychologist, executive, business owner, author, speaker, and professional development consultants, the couple has focused their lives on helping others to develop personally and professionally. In 2005 they decided life needed to change and took time off to heal, rejuvenate, and figure out the next phase of life by living in the south of France with their young daughter.
