My name is Cathy Jo Boyd, but my closest friends call me CJ!
I was born and raised in the small rural town of Plainfield, Wisconsin. It’s “on the map” for other reasons, but I hope to help it have another claim to fame!
I am a wife, Momma of 7, and a former cafe owner who had always tied my value, as a woman, to the labels I identified as. With the “loss” of all three of those titles within a 3-year span, I resigned myself to the fact that I had zero identity, no value, no worth.
My duty now is to figure out, at the age of 52, who the Hell I actually am supposed to be. It’s been through the journey of inner work and self-discovery that I have actually stepped into the Woman that I always was, ready to claim and be, unapologetically ME!
And in giving myself the permission to do so, I have the ability to impact thousands of others to do the same!
