About Me

Hello! I'm Jill McAbe, I am a podcaster, trainer, author & strategist helping consultants, coaches, authors and experts with your business model, brand message & work/life balance.

Learning how to create a business that also leads to a sense of balance and well-being in my life was one of the hardest things I've ever had to figure out....Even harder was learning how to develop brand messaging and tell my story in a way that truly reflected who I am and the breadth of my abilities.

I've been an entrepreneur for over 20 years, and my first business was one of those typical businesses that take the life out of you! Our sales were in the millions (which was cool for my first business!), but my stress levels were through the roof. Maintaining my business volumes and being a good leader to my staff took everything out of me. Back then, taking care of me always came last.

Eventually, I had a severe accident that forced me to rethink my priorities. I knew I couldn't go back to having a business that was all about sales and growth. Instead, I needed to create the kind of business that made me feel great about what I was doing and also left space for my personal interests and well-being.

For the last decade, I've been helping purposeful people grow and thrive in their businesses.

What are my credentials?

I hold a Masters in Leadership
I'm certified in executive coaching, team coaching, and change
I've had multiple businesses in the multi-millions
I've had failed business ventures (I learned even more from those)
I have a background in theatre and studied film (enabling me to create a unique approach to branding & origin stories).
I have over 10,000 paid hours as a coach to entrepreneurs
I've been hired by clients in over 20 countries & 30 industries
Over 20,000 students have taken my productivity courses
Over 1000 purposeful experts follow me on YouTube
My Thinking Vitamins podcast is in it's 2nd season and recently I've interviewed some big names (coming soon!)
I am a multiple-time Amazon best-selling author (My book It's Go Time organically reached the top 1% of ALL books on Amazon at Christmas!)

What are some of my quirks?

I draw from science (neuroscience, behavioral science).
Leading scientists have called me a science translator.
I also trust my intuition, and have a regular meditation practice.
Many of my clients, like me, embrace science AND spiritualism as ways of learning and growing.
I believe reprogramming the subconscious is a part of ANY leveling-up story.
I'm dyslexic, which means I make spelling mistakes ... it also means I'm good at breaking down processes and need to understand the "why" of everything I do & teach!
I like to have fun when I work.

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.

You will be happy you did.

Thanks Jill!

Libby Wildman

Founder of The Collective, Senior Partner Davis Rae, Creator of Liminal Escapes Retreats

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.
