Kelli Fitzgerald is a Positive Transformation Catalyst; a title given to her by her clients. In her business, Kellie combines her gifts and talents as both a spiritual life and business coach, along with her love for helping people.
Being a single mom, Kellie was looking for flexible hours of work that would offer her great income potential, hence she took up a job in real estate nine years ago, but was soon working seven days a week, sometimes twelve hours a day. While initially she loved the challenges of her job, the stress of it began affecting her health, as well as her relationship with her family. This was the wake up call!
She came up with a plan to transition herself out of her regular 9-5 job and started taking steps to do something of her own. With her background skills, experience and knowledge in Real Estate, the obvious first choice was to become a Real Estate broker. This gave her some level of freedom, as she was soon able to hire others to work for her. While not making a lot of money initially, she certainly did get her life, freedom, and time back.
Kellie started her first business when she was just 19 years old and has been an entrepreneur ever since.
Being a creative person, writing was one skill that came to her naturally. Writing her first book gave her a taste of success, although she also quickly discovered that books don’t sell themselves automatically. Selling books on Amazon was not enough either, as she wanted her books to be sold in bookstores everywhere too. Kellie started approaching bookstores about getting her book on their shelves, most of whom suggested that she needs to get herself a publisher. This is when she thought, “Why don’t I start a publishing company of my own”? Following this logical progression, today, she has her own successful publishing company, where she not only publishes her own works, but also publishes books from other writers who also want their books to appear physically in bookstores.
During her workshops, and book signing sessions, Kellie met people who would talk about how stressed out they were with/in their life or jobs, how they had the time, but were not sure what to do with their life. Many of these people wanted to do something productive and meaningful, thus Kellie started coaching them about turning their passions into profits, turning their hobbies into businesses and building up their businesses gradually.
She coaches people in finding what they are passionate about and what resonates with them.
In other words she encourages people to indulge in something they love. She strongly recommends to others to believe in themselves and with time, success will come and money will follow.
As a certified business, life, and spiritual coach, Kellie helps people make a positive transformation in their life.
