 Show Notes

[2:38] - Hi folks, welcome back to episode 63 of the Boom Vision podcast! 

Jana is a new friend that was introduced through Julie Delucca Collins, my friend and guest of Episode 38.  I first heard of Jana's story when she was on Julie's podcast show, Casa DeConfidence, and my intuition was telling me I needed to connect with Jana and invite her on Boom Vision!

As a brief background:

Jana Short, a formidable presence in the world of influencers and entrepreneurs, is a Brand Strategy Specialist, NLP & RTT practitioner, visionary entrepreneur, 3-time best-selling author, and podcast host. She's also the editor of Best Holistic Life Magazine, embodying a holistic approach to life.

In 2023, Jana earned accolades such as Top Magazine Publisher and Publicist of the Year by IOATP, Top 15 Coach in Los Angeles by Influence Digest Los Angeles, and Woman of the Year by Hollywood Soeleish Magazine. She graced the cover of San Francisco Soeleish Magazine in July 2022 and was named Los Angeles Entrepreneur Magazine's Top Influencer for 2022.

Jana's achievements reflect her relentless pursuit of excellence, but it's her emotional intelligence and inspirational power that truly set her apart, making her a transformative force in the lives she touches.
