Diane Cunningham Ellis

Diane Cunningham Ellis, M.Ed. is a “renaissance woman” who lives with her heart on her sleeve and a permanent smile on her face.

She creates. She is a cheerleader to all those she meets. She is a creativity coach, a pied piper of people, a woman of vulnerability, and a passionate heart artist. She loves to provide women with opportunities to go on brave adventures near and far. She coaches women (and a few brave men) on business, life, recovery, authentic living, and so much more.

She coaches. Diane is a “business therapist,” plane crash survivor, author, consultant, speaker, marathon runner, and fun friend. She has weighed 203 pounds at her highest weight and 122 pounds at her lowest and now is currently embracing life at a healthy weight for her body, frame, and lifestyle.

She leads. She has a Master’s Degree in Education (Guidance and Counseling) from Whitworth College in Spokane, Washington, as well as a Bachelor’s Degree in Interpersonal Communications.

She is the Founder of the National Association of Christian Women Entrepreneurs®, a global association where women meet to connect, create, and collaborate. NACWE offers training, conferences, networking, and business strategies. NACWE was launched in May 2010 and has been building and expanding since that time with members throughout the United States and Canada. She served as President for seven years (2010-2017) and now is a proud member and speaker.

She writes. Diane is the author of ten books and counting, five which are Amazon Bestsellers, including The Inspired Business Toolkit and the Rock Bottom is a Beautiful Place book series.

She laughs. She currently lives in the Dallas, Texas area. Her house looks like a bookstore, art gallery and office supply store merged. She is messy and has learned to embrace her glorious mess.

She loves. Diane is a heart girl and loves people relentlessly. She gives, she serves, she loves bravely. She is happily married to Jim, her very own Private Investigator, and proudly loves being called Grandma by a few little people.
