Cynthia Jolicoeur Rood
Cynthia was born and raised in Oklahoma, and lived for 30 years in Silicon Valley, where she worked in high tech and raised four children. She escaped the Valley to return to country living on her ranch in the Sierra foothills of Northern California, which she shares with her horses, dogs, cats and beloved husband. Cynthia is a 4th degree black belt and certified self defense coach, and is the host of the Born to Be a Badass podcast, a unique and groundbreaking show about women, violence and safety. She teaches women how to be safe in any situation - her unique genius is being able to take what for many women is an uncomfortable (if not frightening) subject and in a loving, positive way show them how to break through fear, tap into strengths and abilities they don't realize they have and discover their power, courage and freedom.
