A Word From Niña

“I desire for my clients to understand how our minds drive our lives. People know how to do business, do money, at times relationships, but have challenges in knowing how to do life. We are in a day and time where the mind and heart have been dangerously neglected and uncared for. We haven't cared for our minds like we care for our things. I am here to introduce a concept called a "Maintenance Plan for the Mind™." Just like our vehicles need to be maintained our minds need to be as well. I am teaching my clients to be proactive and vigilant about the care of their minds. Things will come and go, people will come and go, but your mind sticks with you until the end. We tend to protect everything else (money, houses, cars) but protecting our minds is something I believe hasn’t quite garnered the attention nor the protection it needs and deserves. Now is the time to give your mind the care and protection like the asset that it is. My name is Niña Tené and I am looking forward to building with you here at Contagious Transformation.”
