Holistic Healing & Wellness Fair

Denise Maple

With over 30 years of business and spiritual coaching, financial, and entrepreneurial experience, I am uniquely positioned to guide entrepreneurs to a successful business plan and launch. From 2019-2025 I was a Clinical Assistant Professor of Finance and a featured speaker on entrepreneurship at the University of Illinois Gies College of Business where I have been recognized on the List of Excellent Teachers as Ranked by Students and as a Dean’s Impact Award recipient. Prior to my faculty position, I have 25 years of commercial banking experience and 10+ years as an entrepreneur. I have a B.S. in Finance from the University of Illinois Gies College of Business and an MBA from Kellogg’s School of Management at Northwestern University. As a heart-centered business coach, I not only help business owners to determine the next steps in the physical world, but also uncover and overcome any mental, emotional, or spiritual obstacles to success. My uncommon blend of spiritual training with a deep financial and entrepreneurial background allows me to assist business owners to reach new heights and live the song of their soul in both work and play.
