Jill McAbe: The Expert You Hire When You Want to Be a Leader in Your Space

About Me

Hi there! I'm Jill McAbe, a speaker, trainer, author and coach specializing in helping people & organizations committed to doing good, increase their impact and become leaders in their space.

I hold a Master's Degree in Leadership and have 20+ years of experience guiding businesses from 1 to 300. My expertise includes clarifying purpose, visions, and growth strategies, creating authentic branding, and leveraging performance tools to increase personal and collective power.

My unique approach to helping individuals and organizations grow their businesses has contributed to over $100M in revenue for small to medium-sized companies. In 2022, Entrepreneur Magazine even named me #1 on their list of Top 10 Inspiring Education Entrepreneurs to Watch.

In 2018, I launched an online training company, BOOM U, which specializes in integrating personal and business development to empower up-and-coming business owners, artists and coaches, to create more impact while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Here's the Link to BOOM U.

My passion goes beyond just helping businesses succeed. My vision for a better world is that one day all individuals everywhere achieve inner peace and fulfillment through self-leadership frameworks that connect them to their purpose and power.

I have organically reached over 20,000 students through my online courses and shared my insights on top podcasts and radio shows globally. I also host my own podcast, Thinking Vitamins, where I share stories and ideas for boosting abundance.

In my spare time, I love reading, meditating, swimming and hiking in the great outdoors with my mini aussie-poodles in beautiful British Columbia where I live.

Client Testimonials

Jill is life changing in person at running retreats and also in her virtual programs.

I had a dream for helping people connect and feel they belong through self exploration, at least 5 years ago!

It took taking Jill’s program to give me the confidence and the tools to move forward to make this a reality.

I highly encourage anyone who is on the fence to set up a call and explore your possibilities with Jill.

Thanks Jill!

Christine Cowern

Toronto-based top 1% Real Estate Team receiving yearly awards for outstanding sales achievement.

Before I signed up to Jill's program, I had no idea where to go, what to do - I felt like I was stuck in really bad traffic. After finishing her program, everything made sense again.

I had my very own navigation system running: we didn't just figure out what my destinations are, but also had very clear directions on how to get to them. It's been only a month into this year, and I have already conquered two of my goals for the year - thanks to Jill.

Seriously, her tools are genius, and if you're willing to put in the work, they will totally transform your business as well.
