POWER HOUR™ offers “by-the-hour” corporate and personal consultancy services with a wellness twist. 

​

I founded Power Hour™ in 2016 while on sabbatical.

After 25 years working in advertising full time in New York City, both agency and client side, on branding and marketing campaigns for some of the world's best known companies including Avon, Dove, General Mills, Maybelline, and Ralph Lauren, I wanted a change.

My initial vision for Power Hour™ was to make exceptional branding, marketing and business expertise available by the hour to small business owners who wanted to take their advertising and marketing efforts to the next level, but weren't quite ready to hire an agency or full time CMO. 

​

After receiving my CWC1 Wellness Coach certification from the Institute for Wellness Education in January 2018, I started getting requests for help from colleagues who were looking to "go beyond their resume" to brand and market themselves more effectively to give themselves an edge in today's competitive job environment. So, I added resume, career guidance and networking services to the mix.

​

This is when I realized that branding is branding,

whether you're marketing products or people!

​

You may be wondering where the "wellness twist" fits in. This is my passion project.

​

Over the last 25 years, I kept noticing the companies I worked for (and with) experiencing high turnover and low morale due to cost saving initiatives and employee burnout. Yet very few had affordable, effective and engaging options available when it came to helping their employees better manage stress, increase resilience and improve their well-being. I wanted to change all that. 

So, I'm now building a team of wellness experts who make "office calls", coming in to the workplace to lead 60 minute wellness sessions ranging from Positive Thinking to Meditation and Unleashing Creative Flow, because good health really is good business. Click here for more information.
