About Me

Tona has been married to her husband, Kevin Restine for over 40 years.  Theirs is a relationship of commitment and compromise, coupled with the essential ingredients of any good marriage... communication, humor and much, much grace.  Over the decades, Kevin and Tona have learned to double their collective impact by operating within their God-given strengths and combining their talents for the greater good of whatever project they happen to find themselves working on.

Their most successful "project" is the legacy of their beloved family.  Together, they raised two children, Ryan and Riley Restine.  For the moment, all of the Restine's live in Central Texas.  Ryan and his wife Brittany, along with their pup, Ozzy work in Tech while Riley works in the Emergency Department of a large medical center.  After being scattered for many years while the "Junior Restine's" completed their respective educations, these are happy days for Kevin and Tona (and their sweet canine companion, Bruin) who relish having their kids living so close!

Many years ago, Tona was diagnosed with a debilitating chronic illness.  She has mastered the gentle art of living in harmony with her condition and has committed herself to teaching others who live in pain to do the same.  Her coaching curriculums and online offerings are anchored in the life altering virtue and change making power of intentional mindset management and creative visualization.

Today, Tona's social life is quiet, but rich and full.  She tries to spend at least a few weeks each quarter with her parents and sisters in Arizona, and as her work schedule permits, she loves any opportunity to "do lunch" and hang out with her treasured Texas girlfriends.  The gift of Social Media has kept Tona lovingly connected to her dear "California and Oregon" pals for decades...

Between her family, friends and amazing clients, Tona is enjoying what is perhaps her sweetest season... she has absolutely "curated the life and business of her dreams" and is most definitely living her very own "LIFE IMAGINED..."

A natural-born cheerleader and champion of others, Tona  brings unparalleled passion and innate empathy, sprinkled with humor into every coaching session and motivational speaking engagement.  Her direct approach and warm demeanor endear her to clients for a lifetime.  

As a business owner; Tona “gets it” … she knows first-hand both the privilege and the labor that come from having chosen the proverbial “Road Less Traveled” and loves nothing more than equipping and encouraging her clients along their respective journeys!

Tona’s professional career spans more than two decades, and has encompassed a full spectrum of duties; from real estate sales, recruitment, management, training, and coaching of real estate agents; to brokerage ownership.  In more recent years, (while logging over 3300 coaching hours as a Certified Ninja Selling Coach) Tona formed her own company, Life Imagined, Inc... designed with thoughtful intention to serve those who require someone wholly confidential, and fully committed to hold space for them.  Tona operates as a barometer and calm voice of reason ... coaching her clients in the arenas of problem solving and next-step navigation, while providing high-level accountability to goals, ideals and mindset management.

In addition to being an insightful, and empathetic coach... Tona has trained herself to be a disciplined writer... her qualifications in this arena are innate and breathed into her heart and mind as a child.  For nearly five decades, Tona has penned a "Letter to God" each morning and views this discipline as a vital component to her Spiritual Practices and daily morning routine. As part of her ongoing effort to improve and maintain her creative agility, Tona writes daily.  Follow her on social media and you will be treated to her "daily thought blog"... designed to inspire her readers to go to a quiet, deep place each day, by prompting them to explore their own thoughts on a wide array of topics. 

Tona has committed herself to personal mastery, ongoing education, relevance and familiarity with changing trends and industry norms. In addition to her commitment to mastery, education and training, she also works routinely with her own personal and business development coaches. 

Tona proudly considers herself to be a "product of her product"...
