Ten years ago, I followed a little nudge on my heart to start sharing my stories. I didn’t know exactly what LIGHTbeamers was or what it would become — but I knew I wanted to help women find their voices and shine their light. What began as me posting on Facebook turned into a private group, which then grew into this global community, a platform for storytelling, and a movement that has touched so many lives.
In this very special anniversary episode, I’m celebrating 10 years of LIGHTbeamers with YOU — the community that has made this possible. You’ll hear from some of the coaches, mentors, and friends who’ve shaped me along the way, and from fellow LIGHTbeamers who’ve stepped into their own stories and transformations.
✨ Join me as I celebrate:
The backstory of how LIGHTbeamers began and why August 24th is our official anniversary
The wisdom I’ve received from my mentors: Jen Lehner on starting small and taking action, George Bryant on clarity and vulnerability, and Ron Reich on focus and scaling with simplicity
How our collaborative book projects gave dozens of women their start as published authors
The unforgettable “red dress” moment in Paris that became a symbol of bold visibility for me
Inspiring stories from women like Becky and Beth who have used their voices to transform their lives — and the lives of others
This milestone is so much more than a date on the calendar — it’s a reminder of what happens when you say yes to your calling and surround yourself with a supportive community. I hope this episode inspires you to pause, reflect, and celebrate your own journey too. And from the bottom of my heart, thank you for being here. Whether you’ve been with me since the beginning or you’re just discovering LIGHTbeamers, you are part of this story — and I can’t wait to see where the next 10 years take us.
