Meet Our Team
Greg Devlin, Co-Founder Worldwide Neon Tiki Tribe

“After surviving a massive missile explosion, I feel like I have been given a second chance in life and want to make a difference in the world by helping as many kids at an early age as possible. I feel that if we can make a positive impression on children between the 1st to 4th grade levels (before they hit the high peer pressure age groups of middle and high school), we can really make a difference as they grow older.”

Our Philosophy
Neon Tiki Tribe book series combines comic book super heroes with real life educational values.TIKI in Neon Tiki Tribe represents Thoughtful Intelligent Kind Individuals and the world sure needs more of these.

  • SUPER HEROES SHOULD DO MORE THAN JUST ENTERTAIN.
  • TO TEACH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CHILDREN (AND YOUNGER) VALUABLE LIFE LESSONS BEFORE THEY REACH THE HIGH PEER PRESSURE AGE OF MIDDLE SCHOOL SO THAT THEY’LL BE ABLE TO MAKE THE RIGHT DECISIONS WITHOUT THE HELP OF THEIR PARENTS OR TEACHERS, WHEN FACED WITH CHALLENGING CHOICES.
  • IF YOU KEEP A CHILD’S ATTENTION LONGER, THE EDUCATIONAL MESSAGE WILL BE STRONGER.
  • READING IS THE BASIS OF LEARNING AND EVERY CHILD, IN EVERY COUNTRY SHOULD HAVE THAT OPPORTUNITY.

It goes without saying; that we never want to lose our children, ever. Empowering them when they’re young (1st to 5th Graders) with “real life” lessons will  position them to make the right decisions when we’re not around.

The topics in red ink above are serious, but by using fictional TIKI Super Heroes and funny cartoon like settings we’re able to keep the children engaged without the stories being overly scary.

WE WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

Sara Regester with Directions 4 Wellness and Cindy Gordon with Business Rescue Coaching and Kimberly Roland with the Better Business Bureau

What happens when you bring dynamic individuals and organizations together to teach, share, lead and encourage others? You get Badass Leadership! In this full-day seminar, you’ll better understand how to be an authentic female leader, step out of your comfort zone and achieve your greatest potential with more presence, magnetism and self-confidence.

In this segment of Phoenix Business Radio, listen in as Cindy Gordon and Sara Regester share about the collaborative spark that ignited the Badass Leadership Workshop; and, hear from Kimberly Roland, Director of Entrepreneur Programs for Better Business Bureau, about why the BBB is hosting this event and other educational events for local business owners.

Sara-Regester-with-Directions4Wellness-on-Phoenix-Business-RadioXSara Regester, Registered Nurse, Stress Expert and Integrative Health Coach, supports success driven individuals to free themselves from the push-pull of their stress and resistance that keeps them stuck where they are in the comfort zone.  

She leads highly transformational Stress Mastery Programs for individuals and groups, so they can become stress responders, innovative problem solvers, less reactive and more confident in their leadership.

An international teacher of Shamanism, unique mind-body-spirit techniques are embedded into her programs for a holistic approach to rewire mindset and lifestyle.

Cindy-Gordon-with-BusinessRescueCoaching-on-Phoenix-Business-RadioXCindy Gordon is the founder of Business Rescue Coaching a boutique coaching company that provides a unique leadership experience to executives who are overwhelmed by the challenges that arise from the growth of their organization.

As a Canadian CPA, Cindy spent over 20 years working with leaders and business owners to build their organization’s financial wealth through “traditional” means – increase revenues, reduce expenditures and taking calculated risks. After receiving her coaching certification from the Coaches Training Institute in 2007, she found that there were so many additional nuances to “success”. This helped her create more dynamic and effective programs to empower clients to achieve meaningful change that creates their desired outcomes more rapidly and with less resistance. Now Cindy is hired by companies whose executives and/or owners want to build their leadership skills to access the best potential of their team and exponentially grow the financial success of their business or division.

In 2013, Cindy began hosting and facilitating Executive Peer Group. Groups with just men, both men and women and just women had different dynamics and outcomes. What surprised Cindy was that the all women groups achieved significantly higher outcomes for the participants than the others. This helped her to see that when women are safe to lead authentically, their feminine leadership style can move mountains. Working with ATHENA Valley of the Sun, Cindy brings the ATHENA Leadership Model which offers 8 principles that reflect how women intuitively lead to women in business. Empowering women to lead authentically will not only transform their life but will transform society as we know it.

LADIES LEADERSHIP CIRCLE Former Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton and Managing Partner with Quarles and Brady Nicole Stanton

With a sincere passion for community, sustainable resources and a thriving economy, former Phoenix Mayor, Greg Stanton, steps fully into his campaign for Congress in Arizona’s 9th District. Nicole Stanton, Managing Partner with Quarles & Brady, shares that they love campaigning together and this time around, their children are old enough to understand what’s taking place and what it could mean for Arizona progress. Greg connected with us by phone from Washington, D.C. and it was a special treat to hear him sincerely applaud and acknowledge Nicole in all she does for their family, our community and her law firm. Listen in to hear what’s most important to the Stanton’s and how they manage two high-profile and influential careers on this segment of Ladies Leadership Circle.

Greg-Stanton-for-Congress-on-Phoenix-Business-RadioXMayor Greg Stanton grew up at 39th Ave and Dunlap, attending Cortez High School. Greg then attended Marquette University and went on to earn a law degree from the University of Michigan. Before he was elected to his first term as mayor in 2011, he served nine years on the Phoenix City Council and as Arizona’s Deputy Attorney General.

In 2015, Stanton won reelection for Mayor and successfully led one of the most ambitious transportation initiatives in the country – a plan that is now working to triple Phoenix’s light rail system, expand bus service and build 1,000 miles of new bike lanes over the next 35 years.

Now, Greg is taking on a new challenge, running to represent Arizona’s Ninth Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. Since October 2017, Greg has been running a robust, grassroots campaign for Congress focused on bringing new ideas and new leadership to Washington to better serve the needs of hard working Arizonans and their families.

He and his wife Nicole have two children.

Greg-and-Nicole-Stanton-on-Phoenix-Business-RadioXNicole Stanton is the Managing Partner of the Phoenix Office of Quarles & Brady LLP and Assistant General Counsel for the firm as a whole. She previously served as adjunct faculty at the ASU Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law. Her practice is focused on business litigation. She was selected as one of the Top 100 lawyers in Arizona for the past three years, listed in Best Lawyers in American for legal malpractice law since 2012, and a Southwest Super Lawyer 2013- present. 

Nicole founded the state-wide anti-bullying initiative, Stop Bullying AZ/The Dion Initiative in 2012. She is a member of Charter 100 Women, graduate of Valley Leadership Class XXIX, Founding Board Member/Past President of the Women’s Metropolitan Arts Council, and Arizona Equal Justice Foundation board member. She has co-chaired the RED Brunch, a World AIDS Day celebration benefiting Aunt Rita’s Foundation and was the Co-Chair of the Night for Life gala benefiting the Southwest Center for HIV/AIDS.

Nicole is the wife of former Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton and mother to Trevor and Violet. She is a foodie and loves the Phoenix Mercury.

In that role, Kolleen was responsible for finding her own clients and quickly learned the value of networking, networking, and even more networking. It was in 2004 and during her sales career that she, along with two other professional business women met for lunch with the purpose of helping to motivate each other after Hurricane Ivan had blown through our area and changed not only the physical landscape of the area, but also impacted the business landscape as well. Out of that lunch was born what is now a thriving not-for-profit organization for business women.

Kolleen currently serves full-time as the Founding Director of what was originally called Women’s Business Lunch and is now known as Powerful Women of the Gulf Coast. The organization advocates a culture of confidence building, lifelong learning, collaboration, empowering others and a spirit of charitable giving.

Each edition features interviewees of local successful leaders in business who share their honest thoughts on leadership, success, obstacles, and inspiration as it relates to women in business. We also include other articles on leadership, networking, and other skill development. It is geared for anyone in business or looking for business motivation and tips. Our goal is for this to be a quarterly publication, however the magazine is currently on hold as we explore graphic designers. Our latest edition can still be found on our website.
  • Annual Pursue Your Passion Women’s conference. To help celebrate National Business Women’s Week, we hold a full day conference during the third week of October along with several other events leading up to the conference.

Family owned since 1977 and celebrating their 41st anniversary this year.

Williams & Associates was founded in 1977, by Bert Williams, working in a small home office (the kitchen table) and has grown to include 3 locations: Tucson, AZ, Tempe, AZ and Lahaina, HI.

Williams and Associates is a multi-award winning Promotional Products company.

They have won the industry’s top award, the Gold Pyramid, three times.

Especially noteworthy is that last year they were named “National Family Business of the Year” by the
