Her radio show A Fresh Start with Sallie Felton has been bringing consciousness-raising topics to listeners worldwide for more than four years.
Sallie also co-hosts a second radio show with her husband, Conway Felton. Light at the End of the Tunnel is devoted to a topic that touches millions, but which people still hesitate to discuss in public forum: Depression.
Managing and living with depression is something Sallie and Conway have been doing throughout their over 30 years of marriage. As a result of the feedback Light at the End of the Tunnel has received, the two are now at work on a book on this important subject.

Professional Background
A former hypnotherapist, co-owner of a wellness center and deep imagery and visualization therapist, Sallie began her career in coaching in 2004. Her intuition, creative problem-solving skills and inherent knack for motivating and inspiring others made coaching a natural fit for her.

Prior to entering the health and wellness field, Sallie spent 12 years as the founder/CEO of The Rocking Horse, a national outerwear manufacturing company, and six years in publishing with Houghton Mifflin.

More About Sallie
An expert alpine skier and formerly ranked New England tennis player, Sallie is familiar with the pressure of competition, what happens when we compare ourselves with others and how much
hard work, fortitude and dedication it takes to achieve our highest goals and unlock our potential.
When she's not coaching, skiing or playing tennis, Sallie takes to the outdoors to put her expert gardening skills into play, which have
earned her home several features on the Hamilton-Wenham (Massachusetts) Garden Tours.
Sallie lives on the north shore of Massachusetts with her husband of more than 30 years with whom she has three grown children.
