Janet Attwood

Biography

From her own remarkable experiences, Janet created the profoundly
impactful Passion Test process. This simple, yet effective
process has transformed thousands of lives all over the world and
is the basis of the NY Times bestseller she co-authored with Chris
Attwood, The Passion Test: The Effortless Path to Discovering Your
Life Purpose. Janet is a living example of what it means to live a passionate, fullyengaged
life.
A celebrated transformational leader, Janet has shared the stage with people like
His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Sir Richard Branson, Nobel Prize winner, F.W. de Klerk,
Stephen Covey, Jack Canfield, and many others.
She is also known as one of the top marketers in America. In 2000, Mark Victor
Hansen and Robert G. Allen paid for 40 of the top marketing experts in the country to
come to Newport Beach, CA to consult with them on marketing their book, The One
Minute Millionaire. Janet was one of the very first they invited. As a result of that
meeting, Robert G. Allen and Mark Victor Hansen asked Janet to partner with them in
their Enlightened Millionaire Program.
Her personal stories of following her passions, of the transformations which people
like Chicken Soup for the Soul author Jack Canfield have experienced with The Passion
Test, and the practical, simple exercises she takes people through to discover
their own passions are a few of the reasons she gets standing ovations wherever she
presents.
Janet has given hundreds of presentations and taken thousands of people through
The Passion Test process in the U.S., Canada, India, Nepal, and Europe. Janet is also
the founder of The Passion Test for Business, The Passion Test for Coaches, The Passion
Test for Kids and Teens, The Passion Test for Kids in Lockdown, and The Reclaim
Your Power program for the homeless.
Janet is a golden connector. She has always had the gift of connecting with people,
no matter what their status or position. From the influential and powerful, to the rich
and famous, to lepers and AIDS patients, to the Saints of India, Nepal, the Philippines
and elsewhere—to anyone who is seeking to live their destiny, Janet bonds with
every single person, and the stories she shares are inspiring, mind-boggling, uplifting
and very real.
A co-founder of top online transformational magazine, Healthy Wealthy n Wise, Janet has interviewed some of the most successful people in the world about the role
of passion in living a fulfilling life. Her guests have included Stephen Covey, Denis
Waitley, Robert Kiyosaki, Neale Donald Walsch, Paula Abdul, Director David Lynch,
Richard Paul Evans, Barbara DeAngelis, marketing guru Jay Abraham, singer Willie
Nelson, Byron Katie, Wayne Dyer, Nobel Prize winner Muhammad Yunus, Tony Robbins,
Rhonda Byrne and many others. These live teleconference interviews have attracted
listeners from all parts of the globe. Edited versions of these interviews are
made available to over 150,000 subscribers.
Janet served as Director of the Marketing Division at Books are Fun, at the time the
third largest book buyer in the U.S., with annual sales in excess of $190 million. Under
her direction, the division performed at record levels, laying the groundwork for
its purchase the following year by Reader’s Digest for $380 million.
An engaging, dynamic, and impassioned presenter, Janet has been a professional
speaker, trainer, entrepreneur and coach for more than 30 years. Starting in 1974
when she worked with Yes to Success seminars, to her current work leading The
Passion Test seminars, Discover Your Destiny seminars and Passion Test Certification
programs, she has had the gift of inspiring and uplifting participants from wherever
they are. Her Passion Test process has impacted people worldwide, and The Passion
Test phenomenon has resulted in requests from schools to build a passion curriculum,
from teachers, trainers and speakers to use the process, and from organizations
like NASA to incorporate it in their staff development programs.
It was as a result of taking The Passion Test with Janet that Jack Canfield recognized
his passion to be part of a spiritual leaders’ network, and out of that came the
Transformational Leadership Council. Janet and Chris are both founding members
of that organization whose 100+ members serve over 10 million people in the selfdevelopment
world.
