JENN MAYNORD
Founder and Director
It is a dream to lead this group of talented professionals and oversee the Artio mission. My work background includes project coordination, marketing, branding, wellness coaching/teaching, corporate and community event planning.
I gained my Master of Science in International Affairs from Seton Hill University, along with a graduate certification in Post-Conflict State Reconstruction and Sustainability, with an emphasis on conflict management and global negotiation. I received a Bachelor of Arts in English from Oklahoma State University in 2004 and hold wellness certificates in yoga as therapy, third-degree reiki, personal training, and Krav Maga Alliance Next Generation teaching program.
I am also a music artist with Willow Way and live in Oklahoma City with my husband, Dustin, our beautiful 8-year-old daughter, and our two quirky pups, Tut and Kiya.
JOLYNN HASKINS
Grief & Wellness
After graduating with a Bachelor of Dance degree from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, with an emphasis in choreography, I experienced the unexpected death of my little sister. In the shock and throes of the heartache, I turned towards yoga and movement therapy as a pathway to heal from the trauma and grief of loss. In turn, I was inspired to earn my 200-hour yoga certification and commit to the rigorous process of becoming a certified master in the Japanese energy medicine and ancient healing art of reiki.
In my journey to wellness and in service to my students and clients, I grew a passion for the discovery of diverse healing modalities and how they could come together to soothe the pain and suffering of the human experience. I began to combine all of my professional experience in yoga, bioenergetics, somatic therapies, dance, therapeutic movement, and reiki to help facilitate workshops, classes, and seminars. Through my outreach, I provide the space and guidance for others to release trauma, cope with grief, and heal emotional wounds by reconnecting with the body. I am on a mission to help others connect to the deeper wisdom of their bodies to promote healing and create a more vibrant life experience. I live in Oklahoma with my husband and two beautiful daughters.

Diversity & Inclusion
I am excited to bring my background, education, and life experience to Artio, and work with Jenn and the incredible team she has assembled.

ANTHONY HASKINS
Stress & Mental Health
For almost 20 years, I stood at the intersection of the “Dr. Phil” platform and the show's viewers, as the curator of information for the show's evidenced-based therapies. There, I helped facilitate guests in perhaps the highest stress-crisis transitional moments of their lives. To say the least, I have seen and dealt with it all. I accumulated hands-on experience under the tutelage of Dr. Phil, and G. Frank Lawlis, Ph.D., A.B.P.P., a premier brain scientist and pioneer in non-invasive, neurologically based treatments. I have contributed to three of Dr. Lawlis' books:
"PTSD Compass Reset," "PyschoNeuroPlasticity Protocols for Addiction" and "Healing Rhythms to Reset Wellness," as well as many of his articles in peer-reviewed journals.
I earned a bachelor’s degree from Oklahoma State University, a juris doctorate degree from Southern Methodist University Law School, and completed a rigorous training for advanced professionals in motivational interviewing and crisis management at the University of North Texas Medical Science Center. I am a certified clinical hypnotherapist, and trained with the American Hypnosis Association to become a Certified Master in Therapeutic Imagery. I am also a certified life coach, presenter of treatment program faculties, and conduct seminars, corporate training and webinars.
I grew up in a small town in Oklahoma, born into a family of extremely limited means: I know well what it means to live with the stress of struggling just to get by. Eventually working my way through law school, I graduated and moved to California to work alongside Dr. Phil and his advisory board, and am happy to have come full circle back to Oklahoma, where I work in private practice and live with my wife and our two young daughters.

AMY HARTMAN

I hail from small-town Pennsylvania, where I got my first job as a general assignment reporter at my hometown newspaper, The New Castle News. After graduating with a bachelor's degree in psychology from Allegheny College, I sought new vistas in Florida, taking a job as an editor and writer for The Key West Citizen. Transitioning from journalism into graphic design and page layout design, I moved cross-country to take a job as chief designer of the metro section for The Arizona Republic.
