About Me

Hello! I’m Natasha aka Professor P

Entrepreneur – Educator – Empowered

 

I am Natasha Palumbo aka Professor P. I come from a deep history of poverty, abuse, abandonment, and neglect. I was used as a sexual object starting at the age of 3 years old and that abuse lasted a full decade.

Unfortunately, my abuse did not stop there.

I went from one prison of pain to another. I have suffered from everything from sexual abuse, abandonment, learning disabilities, low self-esteem, self-hatred, child loss, and I carried the weight of my trauma physically, weighing over 319lbs at one point in my life.

And honestly, the list goes on and on.

Turning trauma and tragedy into TRIUMPH is not an easy task. But it can be done!

I am living proof you can live what I call the Empowered Life. And you can write your story and set not only yourself free but inspire many others to do the same.

Today I am a loved college Professor, Empowered Entrepreneur, business consultant, life coach, humanitarian, and my most important calling, a mommy of two beautiful children.

I have been an educator since 2000. I have more than 25 years of business administration experience and have been an entrepreneur since 2002. I am a creative leader with in-depth knowledge and expertise applying strategic business management, development of small business initiatives, and progressive leadership.  I am a 5-time published author. All my books are available nationwide. 

I have an innate ability to hold the attention of those I train and teach. I have been serving the homeless community since 2003, and I have a passion and love for those who society has labeled unimportant.  They are very important to me.

I have taken my trauma and turned it into triumph. I went from welfare to wealth. Today, I fearlessly and courageously share my story of abuse, healing, freedom, and the ability to not only overcome but to excel to all those I encounters. I am in the business of building up people and I would be honored to work with you!

“With her power, passion and perspectives, Professor P lit a fire under my a**!  At the completion of the course, I had still more tools to continue my work, more clarity about what I wanted to create, and the inspiration to reach outside my comfort zone!

Thank you, Natasha, your struggle is my gift.”

Thank you, professor, for everything, easily one of the best teachers I have ever had! Let’s keep the movement going and make sure we always ask why and creative minds that are willing to question and bring progressive action to things that need change. Change might be slow, but I truly believe what your doing is the right thing. It all starts with baby steps and the legacy you will leave behind on your students will last infinitely for generations, that is the positive ripple effect and indeed it is amazing! 🙂 – Sac State Student

I have learned many things in this class but the most important was my character traits and how it impact on the daily routine and business. – Sac State Student

Professor P, you are the best teacher I have had throughout my whole college experience! Everyone should take your class! – Sac State Student

The one thing I learned most in this class is to question everything and really dive into your own research to develop your own opinions and beliefs about topics. It’s easy to be told what or how to think, but you have inspired me to do my own thinking and I am extremely grateful for that! – Sac State Student
