Simon Ford Testimony - Chicke Fitzgerald |
Who are you?
On the business front: visionary, idea factory, growth coach, extreme entrepreneur and iconoclast.
Over the last 4 months, I’ve reinvented myself as well, shifting my 30 year focus on the travel industry to social media. I have done nearly 100 radio shows on www.blogtalkradio.com/solutionzlive and am loving it. To put food on the table I am falling back to my core skills as a growth coach and consultant www.solutionz.com, which I’ve done for the last 13 years. I am also an investor in a new technology for journey planning (drive trips) www.roadescapes.com and own a few travel sites (www.hotelsbyhospitals.com and www.tripsandbox.com).
On the personal front: I am a child of the King, wife for 18 glorious years to Michael, mom to 11 year old Kiera and 9 year old Sergey and friend to many.
On the social front: I lead a group called the Executive Girlfriends’ Group (www.solutionz-egg.blogspot.com) that has grown to nearly 300 exec women in the travel industry in just 9 months. We have a 90 minute phone call every Friday with special vignette speakers (authors and experts). I am expanding the group beyond travel in 2009 and looking for partners to spearhead growth in other industries.
In all I do and say, my faith is in the forefront and transcends the business, personal and social sides.
