She has been recognized and honored by the National Congress of Black Women (NCBW).

The mother of one daughter, Talita, Jill is no stranger to hardship and conflict. Jill is a native Washingtonian and a graduate of Frank W. Ballou, Sr. High School. When entering the work environment Jill says she felt scared and unprepared which left her with the decision to either sink or swim. With a determined, deliberate and intentional outlook she began a journey of self discovery to reconnect with the voice, vision and vitality that was once lost to fear and uncertainty. Jill was a single parent for 10 years before marrying the producer and playwright, Deron Cloud. In 2008 Jill and Deron celebrated Talita’s graduation from Medical School as well as her acceptance as a Pediatrician at one of the nation’s leading Children’s Hospitals.
Driven by change and community, Jill has used her passion to inspire and uplift others from all walks of life. She has touched the lives of several thousand women who have attended her conferences and seminars over the past decade. Her newly found re-birth message of hope, How to start a Revolution without starting a Riot, has been a defining moment in her journey. She has literally guided women from despair to destiny and from self-pity to self-reassurance.
