Professor Dreams Big Life Coaching Career
Posted: March 14, 2012 at 5:44 pm
Waiting in line at 4 a.m. with thousands of strangers in a Kohl's parking lot, professor Clint Pardoe had a moment of clarity. He had made the 6-hour drive to Los Angeles at the encouragement of his wife to pitch the idea for a television show that he had developed over many years as both a college professor and certified life coach.
After waiting for close to seven hours, Pardoe made his 30-second pitch to the producers of "Oprah's Your OWN Show' Contest" in a room full of other hopeful candidates. The next day, he was standing in the offices of Mark Burnett, the producer of "Survivor."
While Pardoe's show had promise, the idea was eventually turned down. But that 4 a.m. epiphany convinced Pardoe that having his own network TV show was just one potential medium for his message.
"The Oprah experience of going down there really opened me up," he said. "That's why I was so humbled standing in line realizing how many people she has touched through her medium and how many students I could reach if they were interested in what I was doing."
Pardoe dreams of providing college students with a safe space to ask life's toughest questions. As a certified life coach, a process that took three years of training, Pardoe has worked with clients ranging from freshman in college to small business owners to CEOs.
His passion for a TV show where Pardoe would coach college students in the areas of relationships, career aspirations, setting goals and self-care has not diminished. It's merely taken on a new form.
Pardoe plans to film open-forums where he answers student questions about life and then share the videos online. His goal is to create a website with "episodes" featuring different issues that students need advice on and make the content available to young adults.
"There is a desire among students to have those conversations and I don't know that they're happening as often as students might want them to," said Pardoe. "I'm looking to create with this forum if you will, an environment where it can be cool to get support."
Pardoe will be hosting his first coaching event open to Santa Clara students on March 7 as a way to kick-off his new found website project. The open-forum discussion, which will be free to all students, is meant to provide an opportunity to ask questions about college life to a certified coach who believes he can relate to his audience.

Cape Chamber and Lee Memorial partner for fitness challenge
Posted: at 5:43 pm
CAPE CORAL, Fla.- The Cape Coral Chamber of Commerce and Lee Memorial have partnered up for a "get fit challenge."
The idea began with a Lee Memorial employee wellness challenge and has grown from there. They decided to open the challenge up to the community and more than 100 people signed up.
Since the challenge co-sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce, a lot of businesses signed up as a team to get their employees in good health, which could in turn mean lower health care costs.
The fitness challenge started with a fitness test. Participants went through blood tests and take a treadmill stress test that compares your chronological age with what they call your "fitness age."
At the end of the 12-week period, they'll go though the same tests again to see who has the biggest improvement.
"It's a great way to being the community and the businesses together but more importantly it gives us a chance to look at ourselves in the mirror at our own fitness levels and wellness levels and serve as great role models of health and wellness in the community," said Scott Kashman of the Cape Coral Hospital.
