ONE SHINING MOMENT

In case you don’t know her, Dr. Rhonda M. Wood would like to introduce herself.

A native of Washington, DC, Dr. Wood has steadfastly garnered widespread global success, in large part because of her immeasurable body of work, particularly as a well-respected mental health advocate.

A devout woman of faith, Dr. Wood, by all accounts, could be suitably described as a woman of many hats, primarily because of a rash of achievements, most notably as an award-winning international speaker, multi-bestselling author, and a leading authoritative figure on mental health and wellness.

To her distinctly unique credit, it is due in large part to Dr. Wood’s valiant, well-publicized global contributions in a professional tenure that spans some 30-plus years that this beloved empowerment extraordinaire will be acknowledged on a national stage for her influential impact and dedicatory service to her chosen profession.

Dr. Wood is one of several recipients for the President Joseph R. Biden 2022 Lifetime Achievement Award and will be honored during an official ceremony December 3 in Las Vegas.

An awards ceremony that will take place at Planet Hollywood Las Vegas Resort, the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award is widely regarded as one of the highest honors presented to individuals who have overcome significant obstacles to achieve impressive accomplishments, thus dedicated their lives to advocating for the most vulnerable among humanity and acted with bravery to drive change in their communities — and across the world — while blazing trails for generations to come.

For Dr. Wood, she will be honored “largely for being a successful leader and my unwavering commitment to mental health advocacy,” the renowned International Purpose Coach announced in a post via Facebook on November 28.

Dr. Wood will serve as the mistress of the ceremony for the event.

“I will be ramming out the names of honorary doctorate and lifetime achievement award recipients,” she said.
