Dra. Lynnette Sullivan I'm a former student parent and first generation Mexican American college graduate , my passion is to empower other students to pursue a higher education. I started my educational journey at the Moreno Valley community college, received my bachelors in psychology at CSUSB, masters of counseling psychology from CBU, and completed my educational journey at USC- Doctorate of social work program.

I am Criss Madrigal, a proud Californian by birth and a person deeply connected to my Mexican roots. Having spent a significant portion of my childhood in Mexico, I cherish the invaluable experiences and immersion in my vibrant culture that it provided. I am blessed to be married to an incredibly supportive partner, whose unwavering presence and encouragement is a gift. In 2009, my heartfelt wish was granted, and I was given the incredible gift of motherhood to a remarkable boy. Two years later, in 2011, our family was blessed with the arrival of identical twin girls, bringing us even closer together. As a united and devoted family unit, we have embarked on a profound journey of love, care, and support, embracing the unique needs of each of our children with unwavering dedication. Driven by a profound desire to make a meaningful impact in the lives of others, I wholeheartedly pursued my passion and became a certified life and mindset coach. Alongside my coaching practice, I am also a corporate mom and human resources professional, dedicating the past 18 years of my career to a Fortune 500 organization. With a profound passion for empowering women, my purpose is to facilitate transformative journeys that encompass the mind, heart, and body. I am dedicated to guiding women towards a harmonious transformation that brings peace, love, and abundance into their lives. By helping them break through self-imposed barriers, such as mom guilt, overwhelm, and burnout, I assist them in attaining a daily state of clarity, balance, and confidence. Through prioritizing their own well-being, they are empowered to uncover their true purpose and achieve their desired goals in life. My mission is to empower women worldwide by reminding them of their innate capacity for greatness and success. I firmly believe that the key to unlocking these achievements lies within each and every woman. Through my work, I strive to ignite the inner fire and unleash the boundless potential that resides within them, inspiring women to recognize their own power and achieve extraordinary heights.
