Jeanine developed a keen interest in what makes humans thrive twenty years ago. Now she understands she was asking a broader question than most researchers dare. She also knows that we receive the answers to the questions we ask!
She has a vision of a much better world for everyone, but it is not just a dream, she knows how to achieve the goal. For the last few years she has devoted her life to sharing this information with as many people as possible in programs designed for individuals and organizations. Realizing she could help more people through books, she began writing.
Her first book, True Prevention--Optimum Health: Remember Galileo was released May 5, 2014. She has also written a novel in which the heroine teaches the skills by demonstrating them as she moves through a series of events. The novel is the first of a trilogy that sometimes has her jumping out of bed at 3 a.m. to add new scenes. Her seminal work, Stress Kills: Happiness Heals is being edited.
A 4th book is also in production. Only You Can Prevent Suicide is the result of some very moving experiences she has had because of her work in which suicides were averted. She recognizes that everyone has the potential to be the person a loved one turns to when thoughts of ending their life are being addressed and wants to help people be prepared if that moment ever comes. It is designed to help both the person who is dealing with thought of suicide and their loved ones. She hopes it will be as effective for others as it has for her.
Jeanine's worldview is unusual in that she perceives concepts such as borders, nationality, and race for what they are--artificially constructed labels holding only the meaning ascribed to them. She prefers to see humanity as a whole with a great potential for harmony. However, far from being a pie in the sky concept, she has both a scientific basis and a clear path to move us closer to this ideal and a world where everyone is able to live peacefully and thrive more.
The power of what she teaches is evident in her own life. Jeanine raised her two daughters on her own from the time they were preschoolers. She says her goal was always to "Raise children I would like as adults. I knew I would always love them, but liking them was my goal." She always smiles when she says this because she has achieved that goal.
She is remarrying in 2014, to the man of her dreams. They will live in the Charlotte, North Carolina area until they build a new home in the mountains. Jeanine loves being surrounded by nature and wants a home where she brings a camera to breakfast because "You never know what you'll see." Her soon-to-be husband delights in surprising her with romantic getaways where he tells her how many days to pack for and the anticipated weather--but nothing about the destination. She loves both these trips and the ones she plans. She is blessed with friends around the world, many of whom she met during her travels.
Her work is scientifically based but she is deeply spiritual. She has taken the time to build bridges from a variety of worldviews to the keys to human thriving. She has ways of explaining the keys to greater thriving that appeal to scientific, religious, and spiritual worldviews and has somehow woven them together in a way that brings the world closer to peace.
Her deepest hope is not only that you will enjoy her books, but that they will provide you with information that you use to thrive more in your life--to be the shining light she believes everyone is capable of Being.
She will empower and inspire you. She will see your potential even when you do not. She hopes you will thrive more and enjoy your dreams becoming reality.
