Hi, I'm Dolores
I am a book author dedicated to improving health outcomes in the US and reducing dependency on prescription medications. My focus is to help people prevent or reverse major health illnesses, such as high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes.
I am the founder and owner of Tips4Living LLC, a coaching business in Atlanta, GA, dedicated to helping people find solutions for common problems in life. I also serve as the Chief Financial Officer of the Sherrod Foundation Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to helping teenagers and their parents.
I have worked in the medical field for 30+ years with a BSN in Nursing. I developed a strong interest in nutrition and the idea that we could improve our health outcomes by focusing on what we eat. As a mother of two, a wife of more than 45 years, and a devoted Christian, I have learned how to have it all and be very successful. I adopted a vegetarian lifestyle more than 20 years ago and love helping others transition to a whole food plant-based diet. I’m now dedicated to helping others learn that succeeding is a matter of passion, preparation, and faith. If we follow God, he will make us healthy and wealthy.

Hi, I'm Richard
I am a book author dedicated to reducing the mental health epidemic among young adults. My focus is to help young adults find their passions and purpose in life, reduce their despair, and earn money aligned with their passions.
As founder and CEO of the Sherrod Foundation Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, I am dedicated to helping teenagers and their parents get the business skills to succeed. With over 40+ years of corporate experience, I completed volunteer charity projects designed to support children and their parents. I’ve worked in the technology field as a Vice President, Strategy Manager, Finance Manager, and Engineer. I am a certified trainer, certified Life Coach, master facilitator, certified Lean Six Sigma Green belt, and process expert.
As a Certified Life Coach, I am passionate about helping others learn to build wealth or to live a lifestyle aligned with their passions. With 45+ years of marriage under my belt, I started the ‘Building A Great Marriage’ podcast to help people improve their relationships in line with God’s design for marriage. I enjoy teaching Christian living in the 21st century.
What's Next For Dolores & Richard?
Dolores is finishing her book, Better Ways To Improve My Health, which will launch in 2026. Her next book project will be to help people live a Christian life in the 21st century. Many struggle with living by biblical scripture in a world that thinks the bible doesn’t apply to current times. However, scripture is everlasting, and people can live according to biblical teachings and have great lives. She will outline how to do it in an engaging book with references to scripture. This book is designed to be accessible to all, ensuring that everyone can benefit from its teachings. Look for it over the next year or so.
The book will come with a Bible study guide and worksheets to document the key points from scripture you want to build upon for a better life. You will be able to write down the changes you will make and how you will implement them over time.
Once the book is out, she will be doing a podcast of the same name to break everything down.
Richard’s book, Dare To Succeed - Finding Passion to Fuel a Purpose-Driven Lifestyle, is available on Amazon now, so get your copy today. This is a game-changer for the world. This book serves as a playbook to help you identify your talents, understand your passions, and develop the skills needed to get paid for those passions. People who live by their passions and get paid for them will likely never be depressed. Richard has developed several business development models over the past 45 years, which he used to mentor executives. Some of those mentees became Vice Presidents, so the models work. He will do a podcast of the same name to break everything down and help teenagers and their parents understand how to implement the ideas. He will create videos covering each part of the book to help with implementing your plan. Look for those in 2026 in the Learning Lab.
He launched a new podcast, Building A Great Marriage, in 2023. To get tips on improving your relationship, join us on Spotify and YouTube.
