MEET JOANNE
My name is Joanne Franchina, and I'm the founder of Inner Compass. I help people to live fulfilling lives by applying their inner wisdom in everyday situations. I particularly enjoy working with individuals who are discovering the joys of a holistic approach to life through mind, body, and spirit.
I received my undergraduate degrees in English and Political Science from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. I have extensive professional experience as a writer (technical and marketing communications), training course developer, business analyst, and quality assurance manager.
In fact, it was the stresses associated with juggling motherhood and a successful professional career that first brought me to learn meditation and life coaching skills in 1996. My extraordinary experiences with meditation and the power of intention led me to further study of metaphysical and spiritual subjects, that ultimately resulted in a career change of a higher order.
I am a member of the International Coach Federation. I am also a certified clairvoyant medium and ordained minister with Fellowships of the Spirit in Lily Dale, New York.
As you might
expect from my background, I have become quite skilled at finding balance between the practical and the inspirational, the
logical and the intuitive, the material and the spiritual. I have a unique, intuitive
approach to life coaching and spiritual counseling that is highly effective. I am also passionate about
teaching; I love to share with others the concepts and practices that I have successfully applied in my own life, and in sessions
with clients.
Inner Compass events are held at the Inner Compass office in Cincinnati, Ohio, unless otherwise noted. Pre-registration is strongly recommended to ensure your place in an event, and is required for certain events. Other noteworthy events may also be listed; refer to the appropriate organization for information and registration details.

RECENT FUN
May 2009: Our first-ever Gala Message Service was so much fun! What's a Gala Message Service? It's a special demonstration of platform mediumship in the Spiritualist tradition, in which each message incorporates a special item inspired by spirit through the medium's clairvoyance such as flowers, crystals, tarot cards, flame cards, spirit art or everyday/personal items.

March 2009: Our Clairvoyant Message Circle Events are very popular with groups and those
who are new to intuitive readings---and no wonder! They are fun and affordable, and allow one's friends and family members
to participate. What happens in a message circle? Well, a handful of participants
sit in a circle with a clairvoyant medium, who provides a message, or mini-reading, for each participant in turn.
