Libby was instrumental in creating the comprehensive media launch that catapulted Dr. Phil to the highest ratings in daytime television since the Oprah Winfrey Show debuted. After starting her career as a temporary office assistant, in just five years Libby worked her way up to VP of publicity, advertising and promotion at Sony before moving on to Turner Broadcasting and Universal. In one of several unusual career moves, Libby then moved into a creative position and became Vice President of television programming and development for Universal’s Studios USA. Having decided she needed to completely re-balance her life, Libby left the corporate world and founded Libby Gill & Company in November 2000, which is focused on creating client success through powerful personal and business brands. As she was reinventing her professional life, Libby’s personal life also underwent a major transition. She chronicled her journey of overcoming the self-perceived limitations left behind by a family legacy of alcoholism, divorce and mental illness in her bestselling book "TRAVELING HOPEFULLY: How to Lose Your Baggage and Jumpstart Your Life" (St. Martin’s Press).
