Jean-Robert Covers Summer 2011 Motivated Magazine

Jean-Robert de Cavel is featured on the cover of the Summer 2011 issue of Motivated Magazine. The issue features an in-depth interview of Jean-Robert by Shevaun Voisin, publisher and editor-in-chief of the magazine.

“I’m touched by the fact that Shevaun found my story could be inspiring and motivating to other people,” says Jean-Robert. “And I’ve been inspired and motivated by my time with Shevaun and by the magazine, too,” he added.

Jean-Robert’s interview with Voisin covers his drive to succeed and how he has recovered from tragedy and loss in both his personal and professional lives. It is Jean-Robert’s most in depth and candid interview since the opening of Jean-Robert’s Table in 2010.

The magazine, founded by Voisin, focuses on themes to inspire and motivate readers to business and personal success. It is sold at Barnes & Noble bookstores in the U.S., Hudson News and through paid subscription.
