Jill Boldway:  

I've done so many things the last 50 years, it almost makes my head swim to write it down! But, here goes... After a year at the University of Georgia majoring in Music Therapy, I left to marry. I had a son, Brock, in 1972, and cherished my time as a mother, however divorced after 5 years. At age 38, I returned to school (my son and I attended the same college at the same time) and received my BA in Psychology in 1996. I then went on to private schooling to obtain my license as a professional hypnotherapist and metaphysical life counselor, and earned a Doctorate in Metaphysics. Beginning in my Senior year in high school, I worked for ten years as an entertainer (singer/guitarist) on the nightclub circuit in Atlanta at places like the Hyatt and the Radisson. I have continued to perform throughout the years including shows for children in California schools, and performing for churches, city events, and in senior retirement homes. In the '80s, I published three children's albums (now CDs) of original songs that promote self-esteem and positive values. They were sold internationally through Unity School of Christianity and my company Two Wings Publishing. I have a site where you can hear songs from two of my albums at Broadjam.com/Jillian Boldway. I lived in Prospect, KY, right on the Ohio River outside of Louisville for several years in the '80s. During that time, aside from being a mother, I taught aerobics for five years (my students called it "Jill-ercise") and worked for an advertising firm writing jingles and copy for radio and TV ads, and even performing the singing and voice-overs for those ads (did you ever hear the "HairCrafters" jingle?). I moved to California in 1986. From 1991 until 2000, I worked for Callaway Golf Company in Carlsbad, CA, north of San Diego. I developed the Corporate Communications department during their initial public offering, and created/produced the company magazine and other publications. I also created and conducted tours through the manufacturing plants, the test center, and the research and development center. I was the PR person for visitors and during that time I met many famous celebrities who came to see how the top-of-the-line golf clubs were made. I not only met famous movie stars, but well-known politicians, sports stars, recording stars, and international heads-of-state. It was a blast! Unfortunately, Callaway became too "corporate" after having such enormous success, and the environment changed to where it was no longer enjoyable to be there. Even Mr. Callaway left. So, I gracefully made my exit and after a year off doing some traveling (loved Ireland and exploring Egypt!), I worked for a psychiatrist in Del Mar, CA, which fit well with my degree in Psychology. In October of 2003, I was ready to leave expensive California, so I moved to Prescott, AZ, to do something adventurous. I founded Prescott Trolley Company which provided Old West historic tours (complete with Western costumes), wine-tasting tours to an organic vineyard, and day tours to beautiful Sedona and the old mining town of Jerome. It was so much fun (though exhausting) and brought out the ham in me! Pres...Expand for more
