Corinna Bowers

Corinna Bowers is a life coach who helps women to feel more confident, connected, and accomplished. She's spent most of her adult life in the helping profession, from being a therapist for abuse survivors to being a relationship coach for a popular online service. She earned a Master’s degree in counseling from Northern Illinois University, but the vast majority of her “schooling” came from her own life experiences and her professional and personal interactions with others.

Corinna has walked with overwhelmed women through some of their most frustrating and challenging times and she’s learned a lot. She's paid attention. She's asked questions. She has become very familiar with many women's most common fears, challenges, and underestimated strengths. She knows what it takes to work through them to find ultimate success.

What clients say about coaching with Corinna:

"You have helped me to pinpoint some of my biggest insecurity points that I habitually go back to and I am learning to set goals and priorities to help myself get past those - and I am better able to recognize when I am falling back into those insecurities.”

“Thanks again for your help! I am enjoying this more than I ever thought. And to think I was so nervous about doing this. This has been a very good thing for me. I actually feel more positive and in control with my life which is great!”

“I think Corinna helped me to find the person I once was and to be an even better person who is in tune to their feelings and the feelings of others. My life is a more positive adventure with much hope for the future. And I have the skills and knowledge to get myself back on track should I need it in the future.”

Originally from the Chicago land area, Corinna is a published author that now lives with her husband and their two young children in rural Tennessee.

He leverages his experiences and large, diverse network to consult, advise and help connect start-ups and small businesses with the necessary people to help them take their business to the next level.

A graduate Cum Laude of Queens College in Accounting and the Zicklin School of Business at Baruch College (MBA), Aron Schoenfeld is currently co-founder of DreamArtists Studios (music production), Pipedream Entertainment (music in new media), as well as founder of PAS Holdings where he consults/advises companies in the music and entertainment industries.

Having been exposed to the business world at a very early age, his father, an office supplies salesman, afforded Aron the opportunity to work in various business ventures while teaching him general business principles and sales practices. By the age of 15, Aron had already managed a successful office supply store and video rental business during the summers in a bungalow colony in Monticello, NY. Aron also worked door-to-door with his brother selling crock-pot and oven liners, as well as selling office supplies to corporations with his father, and working as a booking agent for a hotel in upstate New York.

After talking for a few hours and meeting a few more times, they co-founded DreamArtists Studios, a boutique music production company composing original music for television, film, and commercials. After success in the music industry while head of Business Operations at DreamArtists Studios, he decided to keep the music industry as his main focus. His latest venture co-founded by his partner at DreamArtists and award-winning creative director/producer Tim Piper, Pipedream Entertainment, specializes in experimenting with new applications of music and production that go beyond what most consider mainstream.

Aron also serves on the Board of Advisors for New York Entrepreneur Week and the Bergen Newspaper Group, where his wife was just appointed COO and is very involved in various not for profit organizations throughout the New York area.

Aron currently lives in Forest Hills, NY with his wife Penina and daughter Michele. All three of them are big Yankee fans who enjoy going to and watching games, as well as spending free time playing in the park and taking walks around the neighborhood.
