Artist, Tile Contractor, Mindfulness Instructor & Speaker
Vallefuoco Contractors, United States
My LinkedIn profile will tell you my list of titles. It says I'm an Eternal Artist, Mindfulness Meditation Teacher & Speaker, Co-Owner of Vallefuoco Contractors, Board Member, National Tile Contractors Association, and Founder of Disability Inclusion Guild®. I'm also an innate overthinker, fidgety meditator, and a lifelong science geek. We all carry titles and labels, but they don’t fully reveal who we are or how we contribute to those who pass through our lives. My tiny contribution is to empower fellow humans to minimize the suffering in our heads. l use research-based neuroscience, mindfulness, and psychology principles, speaking regularly to private companies and in crisis intervention programs. I have witnessed how mindfulness practices enhance human connection, resilience, community-building, and even company loyalty. I love speaking in my industry! As Board Member of National Tile Contractors Association, I hope to give back to this industry that's given so much to me!
I've spent 25 years in construction, and the last seven teaching mindfulness and self compassion to unsuspecting humans in diverse industries throughout the country. I hold years of experience speaking on compassionate leadership and creative mindset, working regularly with dauntingly intimidating executive teams who somehow always turn out to be human. When leadership is authentic, it impacts the entire workforce! I help leaders model vulnerability and courage within their workforce and their lives. I speak in the private sector, to first responders, to government agencies, and in my own head. I share a range of scientific frameworks from my post graduate studies, to keep it credible, relatable, and hopefully fun.
