Hello

My Name is Rudolph D. Wright

I am a Survivor, and I am passionate about helping others to be their best possible selves. Life is at best a brief journey. I have seen it often enough. This challenges all of us to be our best possible selves and to live our best possible lives. And to help others along the way, as best as we can. My life experiences over the years, which includes graduate studies in the Social  Sciences, and years of service in various fields,  serving and helping people, have made me uniquely qualified to journey alongside anyone  who might need some support and help to achieve their goals and objectives in life. I help to provide positive and authentic services through my company Jaamnolands.  Especially through my coaching division, Jaamnolands Coaching!

My Story

My Name is Rudolph D. Wright. I am a Jamaican born Dutch Citizen. I currently live in the Nederlands. I am happily married for over thirty years to my wife Sandra. We have one son. He is a very talented young adult charting his own course in life. I have a few decades of lived experiences which includes, paying my way through college for my first degree and  graduating without student loans. Studying abroad at  Loma Linda University in the United States, while undergoing treatment and surviving Prostate Cancer. And eventually completing my clinical training, earning  a Master's of Science degree, in Marital and Family Therapy. I am also a Prepare Enrich Facilitator/ Counselor.  

 

One of my cherished accomplishments of my early years as a family man, was the successful  completion of a five (5) year plan, which yielded a ninety five percent (95%) success rate. Included in the plan was to start the building of a dream home for  my young family. This success remains a motivating factor in my life! And I often  use  my own stories to  motivate and encourage others. 

​

My work experiences in Jamaica,  included working as a firefighter, a teacher, an associate publishing director, a minister of Religion (pastor) and as a hospital chaplain.  As a pastor, my services to the wider jamaican community included, premarital and marital counseling. As well as serving as  a certified Marriage Officer of the Island of Jamaica; conducting weddings and registering marriages with The Registrar General's Department. The Registrar General's Department is an Executive Agency of the Government of Jamaica. The Ministry of Justice and Attorney General's Department.  

 

After my studies abroad, I later returned  to jamaica, where I worked in clinical ministry as a hospital chaplain. I worked as the Chaplain at the Andrews Memorial Hospital, in the Kingston corporate area; giving support to hospital staff, patients and their families. My work also included participating in the hospital's  community outreach program, offering our services to the wider Jamaican Community. During my personal time, I also operated a private clinical practice.

​

In the United States, my work experience included my training as a Marital and Family Therapy Trainee ( MFT Trainee). As well as working as a Marital and Family Therapy Intern (MFT Intern). I held a pre-license status  with the California Board of Behavioral Sciences. I was  a member of both the California Association of Marital and Family Therapist (CAMFT). And the American Association of Marital and Family Therapist (AAMFT). I also worked as a social worker, managing caseloads of foster children, foster parents and their assigned foster homes.  I worked in group home settings, in various roles, including as a Why Try Presenter. The Why Try program was a psycho- educational  and activity program designed for helping At-Risk Children and Youth. Its purpose was to furnish them with social skills training and other coping mechanisms. Throughout these years in the United States, I gained amazing experiences. Experiences  that have enriched my life and added to the value of the services I offer to others.

​

I joined my family in the Netherlands. And  while  transitioning into the Dutch Society. I continued working as a pastor. I founded and established a company, Jaamnolands,  in March 2022 and began working as an entrepreneur. My company Jaamnolands offers a number of services. At Jaamnolands Coaching, the flagship of the brand, I offer a range of services, including life coaching and personal development. Relationship coaching. Family relationship coaching. Marital Relationship coaching. As a Prepare Enrich Facilitator/ Counselor,  I work with both Premarital and Married couples. I offer the Prepare Enrich Marriage Check Up,  as well as the Marriage Enrichment Program. I also offer guidance and support to families with special needs, as well as  grief and  pastoral counselling. 

​

My objective is to offer my years of experience, and my varied skill set and expertise, to help as many persons as I can. Helping them to be their authentic and best selves.  And to process their thoughts and feelings and to problem solve  the issues and challenges they face.  To grow themselves, and  to achieve their goals and objectives in life.  I am committed to giving my best, to journey alongside my clients, as their coach and counselor, to give support as best as I humanly can.  Helping to provide a safe place or space for them, so they can work on becoming their best possible selves. Jaamnolands motto is: "Be your best self".  And as I share the journey with others,  I too, am continuing to grow myself. Even as I help others to grow.

​

My other interests include a love of cars. As a car enthusiast, I have owned and driven a number of cars across some of the popular models. I currently drive my eighteenth car, since I began driving in 1994. Each of my cars has afforded me a rich repertoire of stories.  And as a result of my personal experiences. I have learnt a lot about cars.

 

I also like being creative. Being creative, includes writing songs, poetry and prose. I love writing songs and making music. Recently, I built my own music studio, so as to grow myself and develop my music creativity. And I am working on publishing my own creative works.  

​

Being creative also includes working with my hands. I love to work with my hands. I love to make things and fix things. Whether it's renovating or installing a new kitchen, building a porch or patio, doing landscaping and gardening, or other projects. I hope to fulfill my dreams of creativity and productivity through my company Jaamnolands, and its additional, affiliate trade names. ( See the More link page).

The Journey of Jaamnolands

 Jaamnolands is a registered company with the Nederlands Chamber of Commerce (Kamer van Koophandel) also known as KvK. Jaamnolands is a sole proprietorship company, with registration number  Kvk 85674788, located at Tijmweg 79, in Hoogvliet, Rotterdam, in the Netherlands. Jaamnolands is quite a multifaceted company, offering different services, through additional trade names. 

 

Jaamnolands Coaching is the flagship company. And the primary trade name through which I offer my coaching, personal development and counseling services. To touch the lives of the many people who need help and support. 

 

Jaamnolands  Music and Publishing and Jamnolands Music Studio, represent my desire and my drive to harness my creativity in music production and creative writing. And to share my gifts with the rest of the world. It is still in its embryonic stage. 

​

Jaamnolands Creative Handi-Works is the result of my hobbies and creative handy-ness turned "pro-business". I was encouraged by a friend who is a professional builder, to register my Company, as request for my services   were made by my neighbours and others, who saw my handi-works.  I do landscaping, gardening, repair-works, and other tasks as may be  needed. 

 

Finding a name for my company was a unique challenge. Many of the names I came up with were already taken. After much thought, I came up with Jaamnolands. Jaamnolands represents Jamaica, (JA), my land of birth. The United States, simply America (AM), where I studied for my graduate degree and lived for a number of  years. The Netherlands (N), my current home, and Other Lands (olands), which represents my wish and desire to offer my services globally, to all who may need them. "Ja"  and "Jaam" are the Dutch words for yes, and represents the positive aspects of my company. From as early as my college days, my personal philosophy of life has been,

"Accentuate the positive".

 

As a Dutch Citizen,  these words "Ja", and "Jaam", and the pronouncement of my business name in Dutch, represents the celebration of my new homeland and my new culture.

 

If we silence the first "a" or not,  in Jaamnolands, and use the abbreviations for the  three (3) countries (Jaamn),  with an English pronouncement, we can find a play on the Jamaican vernacular word "jammin". This represents my strong Jamaican culture and a celebration of our Jamaican musical heritage. (Thanks to Bob Marley and others for its global appeal). It also represents my interest in music, genres aside! And Jaamnolands also, as a Music Company.

 

The Motto of Jaamnolands as a company is: "Be Your Best Self". It represents a challenge and a goal. It captures and summarises my objectives: To help others to grow and become their best possible selves, (like an acorn growing into a mighty Oak tree). And in so doing, live their best possible lives. Whether it is a short or long lifetime!  â€‹

​

The logo of Jaamnolands may vary according to the  other trade names and services. But the Acorn, seed of the mighty oak, is a fitting symbol of the possibilities fostered by Jaamnolands as a company. It is carried by the flagship company Jaamnolands Coaching. The open border in the square, represents the journey of clients as they pass through Jaamnolands. Embracing the challenge of  becoming or continuing their journey, to be their best possible  selves.
