In today's episode, I'm joined by The Woman School founder January Donovan. We dive into the importance of mentorship and personal growth for women. January shares her story and what inspired her to create a place for women to learn to be powerful women.
January Donovan is the founder of The Woman School and The Wholeness Coaching School. She is a #1 best-selling author, an entrepreneur, and a mother of 8 children. She has over 20 years of experience training women.
January had a bold dream to build a school designed to train women with the practical skills to manage their lives. She spent 15 years training women for free before realizing that in order to reach millions, she had to learn to build a business and do so while prioritizing her family.
The business grew from 0 to a multimillion-dollar company reaching 40 countries in under three years and landing her the title as one of Forbes Magazine’s top coaches. She then went on to found The Wholeness Coaching School where she teaches men and women to build their own coaching businesses using mindset and skill-set training to design every part of their life. She co-founded The Man School with her husband and quickly expanded to The Woman School in Español.
Her passion fuels her discipline as a wife, mother, and business owner because we
can’t give what we do not have. She trains men and women all over the world with mindset and skills that allow them to intentionally design every part of their life. We were created to live a life of meaning and contribution, we just need to train up for it.
Life without skills is hard, skills give us choices. We suffer unnecessary overwhelm, stress, and anxiety simply because we are undertrained. We battle feeling like a failure when in reality, the world has failed to prepare us. We can no longer afford to hand over a generation of men and women who doubt their worth and give up on who they were created to be. We cannot afford a life without training, we need to skill up.
She believes that it is time for our world to recognize the value of the ‘whole’ person and not just what the culture dictates makes us valuable; we are more than our achievements. We are in the business of valuing and integrating the whole person.
Her dream is to have a school not just to empower women, but to equip them with the mindset and skill-set they need to become who they were created to be. It is only then that we can create a ripple effect in our homes, our communities, our relationships, and our careers. We change the world by changing our interior world first.
As a wife and mother of 8 children, she is fierce about integrating business and motherhood. Our professional dreams cannot be apart from our personal dreams; we just need to train up for them. Motherhood is an Olympic sport and the gold medal is raising children that will bring good into the world. If we want true success then we have to train ourselves to build businesses that integrate every part of our lives.
