Media Pitch

Do you have a crazy-making, difficult, toxic person in your life?

Yes, that one you just thought of!

I call them Hijackals®.

Whether that’s your partner, parent, or any person who causes you to second-guess yourself and question your sanity, you need validation, insights, and strategies to handle the crazy-making.

I would love to share my empowering approach with your audience.

They may be unaware of what it is that is keeping them hurting, stuck, and unhappy. I’ll help them recognize the traits, patterns, and cycles of Hijackals, and get them quickly started on the road to recovering, to going from pain-filled to powerful.

Can we schedule a time to talk to empower your audience with this message soon?

It was through your listing here that I discovered you and then booked you as a guest on Reinvention Radio. You were a great guest and shared awesome content around a subject that everyone needs to hear–Hijackals! I’m sure there is one in everyone’s life, they just don’t know what to call them.
