Jolyn Armstrong is the Founder of the FOTA Project and Grapevine Mindware. Working as a home-based business owner for many years, Jolyn found her world turned upside down in an instant when her son was arrested.

Discovering there was little support for families of the accused, she started the FOTA programme to help others that find themselves in the same situation.

Grapevine Mindware helps women to overcome the pain of trauma and get their lives back to where they want them to be.

Jolyn is passionate about helping empower people to live their best lives – regardless of the crisis or outside circumstances.

Today, Jolyn shares why she chose to work remotely and the life-changing event that inspired her coaching work.

She shares the definition of trauma and why many people carry it without realising its impact on their lives.

She reveals what helped her get through her traumatic experience and how it inspired her to help others.

She also shares how she typically works with her clients, what her working day looks like, and the tools she uses that support her digital nomad lifestyle.

“When things go horribly wrong in life, it doesn’t have to wreck everything, it doesn’t have to end everything, and we can actually choose what happens.”
