about naomi james
“My mission is to help performers overcome the mental barriers that hold them back from achieving their personal level of success. While the tools act as the vehicle, bettering not only the performer but the person, is the whole reason I became an MPC. There is so much meaning in providing the tools that will empower my clients to make lasting changes, that will benefit not only their performance but their overall well-being.”
