Motivation For You originally began serving individuals and families, providing various forms of coaching, professional encouraging and assistance during bereavement, transition, and many other areas. Roberta has been effective in helping individuals and families create resilience in recovering from setbacks, become focused on the present to achieve their vision and more equipped to seize opportunities especially those individuals who are in a life changing or challenging situation.

Roberta believes that God has a purpose for her in using her life's experiences in sharing her testimony to empower others. Roberta is blessed with the opportunity to speak with so many who have a true passion to help heal this hurting world and inspire others lives’ but do not have a positive direction to know how to motivate themselves and allow their passions to be heard. Roberta simply loves to help others use their pain and create a purpose for their lives that they would have left otherwise in their shadow.
Testimonial
"I met Roberta when I was in my last semester at college. This was a very trying time for me as I was going through the death of my father (I was his primary caregiver), raising a family and trying to work at a temp job that was ending because of another company taking over. I was at a point in my life where everything was going down hill and I was even considering dropping out of school to spend more time with my father. But, through Roberta's support-- I am now working part time as a billng clerk in a job I truly enjoy, I was able to graduate from college and my home life has never been better. I'm sad to say that my father passed away before I graduated-- but, I do believe in my heart that he would be proud of that accomplishment. Thanks Roberta!"
