Coach Jantell

 Jantell was born in Cleveland, OH and moved to Atlanta, GA with her mother and brother at the age of 10.  She attended and graduated from Redan High School in 1997.  After graduation, she tried several careers before she found her true passion for Coaching.  She started in 2012 by helping clients create and experience beautiful and fun date nights.  In 2013 she moved back to Cleveland, OH after a family tragedy.  While living in Cleveland, she became a trainer and coach at University Hospital.  She also received her certifications in Event Planning and Creative Design.  Jantell has a very strong family unit and enjoys spending time with them.  In 2017 she lost her granny, and everything changed for her after that.  After this loss, she was diagnosed with depression and anxiety.  A girl’s trip with her mother for her granny’s birthday in 2018 is when things started to take a change for the better.  Through experience and help, she beat both her depression and anxiety.  Shortly after that she met her now husband, the international saxophonist, John “JSaxx” Watkins.  They have now been married for 4 years.  Shortly after they met, they relocated back to Atlanta, GA.  Once relocated, they got in engaged and then married June of 2019.  Her husband, who has been an entrepreneur most of his life, encouraged her to do the same.  The two of them made all these plans and then covid hit.  You know they say if you want to make God laugh, make your own plans.  2020 brought a lot of good and some disappointing things our way.  All her husband’s tours were cancelled, and her company idea went out the window.  So, they both had to learn to pivot.  Like most of the world, she started going live on social media.  Those lives led to people asking questions about their relationships and that led her to CTEDU which is where she received her 1st coaching certification.  In 2021, Jantell and John experienced a miscarriage that changed everything once again.  Bouncing back from that took a toll on both their mental health and her physical health.  Jantell was suffering from fibroids and depression once again.  After 15 months of bleeding and 2 procedures later, things are going well.  The two of them prayed together, spent time together and communicated no matter how bad it hurt.  Did I mention that God blessed us with our first home in 2022 and my husband has music on the radio after all that heartache.  Coach Training EDU even hired her to create and teach their relationship program.  She has received 3 more certifications and she is always somewhere learning something new regarding her craft. Her passion is helping people find ways to stay connected and show up in their relationships. She loves working with people who want to tap into their inner romantic, acknowledge their self-value, let go of limiting beliefs and shift to a positive mindset essentially allowing them to have more happy and healthy relationships.  Jantell offers relationship coaching in her own private practice as well as an online store for relationships.  Jantell resides in Covington, GA with her loving husband and provides all the above services nationally. She wanted to end this by saying, “God always gives more than we lose!”
