About Jill…
I could barely keep my eyes open in a five-minute car ride. I was in my 20’s, “ate right”, and worked out regularly. What in the world was wrong with me?
At the time, I was an IT Consultant for a Big 4 accounting firm, traveled all the time, had two little kids, so I chalked it up to leading a busy life. My health continued to deteriorate and I just knew something was wrong. Finally, after many doctor visits and tests, I ended up with a disease diagnosis for myself and members of my family — Celiac.
Instead of letting it defeat me, I was determined to use my diagnosis to change my life and the lives of many others.
Even if it meant turning our life as we knew it upside down.
My journey back to health prompted me to build t.Loft, Health Café in 2013. t.Loft is fast casual cafes focused on serving fresh, all-natural food and drinks. I’ve taken my passion and turned it into a multi-million dollar brand, including five t.Loft locations (and growing) in the Kansas City area. The business continues to amaze me and has provided amazing experiences from those in our community – from feeding the Kansas City Royals and visiting MLB teams for home games, café visits from celebrities and so much more.
This journey is a far distance from the IT Consulting world working for Big 4 Public Accounting firms that I grew up in. Now, I am ready to help others learn how to “take the leap” for themselves. Join me on this journey as I share embarrassing, fear-filled moments of leaving my corporate life behind to follow a passion.
Jill shares the embarrassing, fear-filled moments of selling it all (or nearly all), leaving behind a successful, lucrative career, and taking the leap of opening t.Loft, Health Cafes. She didn’t have any special knowledge of the industry, but she did have a lot of grit, grind, & passion. Since those early days of uncertainty, she brings many colorful stories of building t.Loft into a multimillion dollar brand. Her entrepreneurial spirit continues and she is determined to help others take leaps in his or her life to elevate them to the next level in their career and life
From barely awake to limitless energy, Jill shares her journey of healing from disease to thriving. She reveals tactical tools to maximize health, fuel energy, and show up energized for the things that matter in life. Through disease she learned to build a lifestyle that includes habits to power vitality while enjoying the many experiences life has to offer. Her mission is to assist others in finding their fire and building a lifestyle that can keep it burning relentlessly.
Finding balance and peace in a world of abundant opportunity is often a very real struggle. As an entrepreneur that greatly appreciates grass roots effort and hustle, she also knows the importance of not missing out on life. Jill talks about defining focus, objective, and mission in life to drive incremental daily choices to accomplish the greater mission. Find a reason that fuels the soul, learn to focus on the mission and drown out the noise of the world, so the world can be touched with talent.
