When Adria Firestone (www.adriafirestone.com) was 10 years old, she won an award as a “Future Teacher of America.” After 30 years onstage in a singing & acting career that has taken her around the world, she has discovered how prophetic that moment was -- she is a teacher, a speaker, and a life coach.

Every experience in her life has prepared her for the work she does now. From the Sacred Temple of the Emerald Buddha, to fleas in the ancient theater in Spoleto, from seedy hotels on Miami Beach to a Sultan’s palace, the journey has been richer than Adria could have anticipated. She was escorted around the ring in the Plaza de Toros in Mexico City by a bullfighter who had just killed a bull in Act 4 of a Carmen production there, the smell of blood hanging in the night air. She scoured the markets for medicinal herbs and oils in Singapore and Indonesia, and bought perfume oils by the pyramids in Giza. Adria lived and studied in Italy, toured Australia & the Pacific Rim, and sang for the Desert Storm troops in the Persian Gulf.

When Ms. Firestone stopped her operatic globe trotting, she took a journey inside to explore a deeper calling. She withdrew from the spotlight and within the past 5 years she founded a successful construction company, founded & headed Organizer Bunny™ (www.organizerbunny.net), and became a member of the faculty at New Jersey City University in the School of Music, Theatre & Dance, as well as continuing to give Master Classes, workshops & seminars. With all of the exoticism of her former career, false eyelashes and the glow of stage light, it is the people that remained as an indelible memory of her odyssey. Her interaction with her colleagues, the leadership she inspired and lives she transformed drew her toward coaching as a new profession.

As a life coach, Ms. Firestone combines all of her talent, education and experience to inspire others to discover their true values, authenticity, and joy. She works with her clients to un-clutter their lives and creates time and space for what they really want. She helps them implement a plan that focuses their energies around their core values, unfolding a more vibrant and personally fulfilling life.

Her speaking is colored by her passion for living, and her point of view is as unique as her voice.
