“Unique!” “Engaging!” “High Energy!” “Funny!”

(Just a few words women blurt out when asked about Adrienne.)

 

Some credentials (for those who love details):

Adrienne serves on the Hope Ministries Board of Directors, is an Aglow Prison Ministry Team Member in the Coffee Creek Women's Prison, and is an Advisory Board member for Speak Up For Hope. She’s also a huge Penn State fan – she should be, with a PhD and two master’s degrees from that school!

Here are just a few comments from some of the women she’s worked with:

I am still on a high from your message at our retreat. I intend to write out the four steps to keeping the peace and place it in several prominent places at home and at the office so that they guide me. I have heard so many positive comments about your presentation. Again, we thank you so much.

Women’s Retreat

 

Adrienne has encouraged me in my relationship with my husband, children, friends, and most importantly with God. She is always straightforward and has taught me that any real change begins with me. If I want change to happen in any of my relationships, change must first happened in my own life. When I have acted upon the Biblical principles that Dr. Ochs has taught me, the results have been outstanding. If you want to hear from someone who is real and will speak directly from her heart, then schedule Adrienne to speak to your group. I also feel blessed to call her my friend.

Dr. Ochs’ passion energizes her to educate and mentor Christian women so they can live lives of purpose and passion, becoming all they can be so they can make a difference in their world.
