Born in New York City, Léonie Rosenstiel has traveled to four continents (if you count Central America). She admits to having spent “a lot of time” in school, earning degrees in fields as diverse as musicology, public health, ministry, and East Asian medicine. Her life journey has also brought her into frequent contact with attorneys, in large part because she spent long periods as a caregiver for her husband and her mother—nine years each.
Léonie regularly teaches and speaks to groups, and she coaches and consults with individuals and families. She has interviewed attorneys, judges, “professional” guardians, and caregivers to discover both the problems and the possible solutions to the difficulties people have when confronting family issues.
Léonie now lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where she loves to nurse a cup of Earl Grey tea while watching the sunrise over the Sandia Mountains.
