My Life Journey

Hi, I'm Beth.
If there's one thing that I hope you'll come to know about me, it's
this: I genuinely believe that Joy can change a life. Not because life is
always easy, but because I've watched joy quietly open doors,
strengthen relationships, carry me through hard seasons, and led me
to opportunities for which I could never have planned. Looking back, Joy has been one of the
greatest gifts of my life, and now it's my greatest Joy to help others discover it for themselves.
I Didn't Set Out to Become a Coach...
For more than 35 years I built a career supporting leaders, entrepreneurs, and growing businesses. I have been a customer service representative, operations manager, business manager, Executive Assistant, Virtual Assistant, business owner, and now a Certified Professional Life Coach. Wonderful opportunities kept finding me because I showed up with Joy, cared deeply, and genuinely wanted to help.
Life Hasn't Been Perfect
I've experienced disappointment, career transitions, uncertainty, the challenges of being a single mom, and starting a business with an $8,000 loan and a dream. Choosing Joy doesn't mean ignoring life's difficult moments. It means believing those moments don't get to write the ending of your story.
Then Something Beautiful Happened
I realized the assistants I coached weren't lacking talent—they were exhausted. They had spent so much time taking care of everyone else that they had forgotten themselves. That realization changed everything for me.
Why I Created the Joy-First Framework™
I created this framework to give people permission: permission to pause, create healthy boundaries, believe they matter, dream again, and love the work they already do—or find the courage to create something new. I created it with my whole heart.
My Life Today
Today my husband Mark and I are blessed to live on a beach on the Pacific coast. You'll usually find me walking the beach, gardening, playing tennis, exercising, or enjoying coffee overlooking the ocean. I've learned that Joy isn't found somewhere in the future—it's created in the small choices we make every day.
My Hope for You
I hope you leave here believing you don't have to become someone else to create a beautiful life. You simply need to reconnect with the Joyful, capable, remarkable person you've always been.
Thank you for being here.
Keep Sparkling,
Coach Beth
“Joy isn't something you find after you build a beautiful life...it's how you build one.”

Before You Go...
Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about my story.
I truly believe that every person has a story worth telling—and that every story has another chapter waiting to be written.
My hope is that your next chapter is filled with more Joy, more peace, more confidence, and more purpose than you ever imagined possible. And if I can play even a small part in helping you write that chapter, it would be an honor.
