Meet CONCETTA

Concetta L. Wheaton Sumner is the Founder and CEO of CettaFYre5 LLC (pronounced "Set-Afire-Five").  Known affectionately as Cetta (or CeCe), her name, her peculiar "fire," and her birth order combine to form what is uniquely CettaFYre5.  

​

As Founder and CEO of CettaFYre5 LLC, Concetta embodies the distinguishing mark of the company's mission and movement. She carries that mantle by manifesting, reconciling, and embracing her own imperfections in grace-based relationships.  This is the pure passion and driving force rooted in CettaFYre5. 

​

Concetta holds a Master of Arts in Rehabilitation Counseling, Bachelor of Science, and Associate of Arts from Southern Illinois University (Carbondale).  Her counseling experience spans upwards of 30 years and includes diverse disciplines, not limited to counseling in corrections and mental health, encouragement, and well-being overall.

​

Concetta is also a licensed/ordained Minister of the Gospel under which she also provides counseling and Christian ministry services.  As an orator and Minister, by the grace of God, Concetta aims to always make every word count.  She has adopted this philosophy from Tony Robbins (paraphrased): When the pain of staying the same is greater than the pain of change, only then will we change. Change your mindset, and you'll change your life; change your life, and you'll change the world. 

​

What gets Concetta up in the morning is knowing Whose she is and who she is. She is an avid runner, enjoys the outdoors, and is calmed by shop therapy -- a verb and a noun. ("Unboxed Shop Therapy" coming soon!)  She proudly hails from the Midwest, although currently resides on the east coast with her spouse and children -- whom she regards as her four-legged heart.
