Jodi's personal mission statement is:
'to listen, learn and love with the heart and mind of Christ and help others do the same.'
She graduated from Emmaus Bible College with a BA in Biblical Studies and an emphasis in youth ministry. Shortly after moving back home to Canada, she co-founded CrossTrainers Canada with her cousin, Patti LaRose in 2001. She served as CrossTrainers' Executive Director for 19 years.
Jodi Greenstreet started WOW Living in 2014 out of a heart to share the truths that served as the bedrock of her life. If you were to ask her to boil it down to one thing her life rests on, she would say, Jesus.
WOW consisted mostly of platform speaking at conferences, camps and retreats until 2019. God took Jodi off the platform and out of conference and camp speaking and began to open her eyes to so much more. She had the privilege of walking alongside a handful of people, most of whom you would never find at one of her speaking events, who became her teachers. Through listening to their stories and learning from their experience with poverty, addiction and mental health, Jodi began to pray with Patti LaRose about what they were called to do. The services that WOW Living provides are the result of those prayers.
In 2019 Jodi and Patti went back to school to earn their MA in Counselling Psychology and are now Registered Psychotherapists with the CRPO. They have a private psychotherapy practice called Anchored Counselling & Psychotherapy with offices in Bradford & Innisfil Ontario.
In April 2021 WOW Living became a registered charity for relief of poverty. In 2023 CrossTrainers Canada asked if WOW Living would take on their ministries and the WOW Living board of directors unanimously said yes. A Hand Up Clothing Room and the Christmas Wish List programs are two vital services to the Bradford community.
Above all, Jodi's passion is Jesus.
