A dynamic international speaker, consultant and writer, LoVerde is President of Life Balance, Inc., a company devoted to spreading the message of finding balance through connection. She speaks to diverse audiences across the country and also shares her empowering strategies with dozens of major corporations including AT&T, Merck and Company, Procter & Gamble, Discover Card, Hallmark, Lucent Technologies and the Mayo Clinic.

Author of I Used to Have a Handle on Life, But It Broke (Simon & Schuster, 2002), Stop Screaming at the Microwave! How to Connect Your Disconnected Life (Simon & Schuster, 1998) and contributor to the best-selling inspirational collections, Chocolate for a Woman's Soul and Chocolate for a Woman's Heart, LoVerde has touched many readers with her stories - including her gift of a "Memory Jar," filled with handwritten reminiscences, to her mother. She presents a wealth of uplifting insights and innovative ideas for taking small steps in the right direction for a less stressful, more satisfying life.

Inspired by her mother, who was separated from her sisters and put into foster care at the age of nine, LoVerde is the national spokesperson for Camp to Belong, which reunites brothers and sisters placed in different foster homes for events of fun, emotional empowerment and sibling connection. She is blessed with family, a rewarding career and a sense of personal fulfillment. LoVerde makes time to share family meals (though she hates to cook and considers pizza today's pot roast), establish new family rituals (like feasting on gourmet takeout and singing carols by candlelight on Christmas Eve), and cheering each other on laughing together - even when she's on the road and far from their home in Colorado.
