About
I am Beverley Jones, award winning Inspirational Business Woman of the year, Speaker of the year and a Business Wales Excellence in Mentoring 2017 Winner yet I describe my 2009 as my annus horribilis; this was a year that saw me crash out of a 30 year senior corporate career diagnosed with burnout which showed itself as depression and severe anxiety.
Check out the real me, here are just a few more details that will give you an insight in who I am today:
I am expert through experience. It is through my dark burnout journey I am now able to recognise the signs in others. The journey is a dark, lonely one which took me down a path that I have no desire to see anyone else walk. Through a series of events in my life both at work and personally I found myself in a state of overwhelm, fear and anxiety; negativity and anger became an unfamiliar everyday occurrence. My life became unrecognisable, everything changed and I was afraid nothing would ever be positive again! However today I live a simple life full of joy and positivity for which I am grateful.
I am someone who believes that kindness needs to lead the way in all that we do. In the words of my parents, if you can’t say or do anything kind, say or do nothing at all.
I believe that living life the simple way is an ideal path to stop overwhelm
I look not to sweat the small stuff (and help others to do the same)
I love connecting individuals with each other to help each person form a strong support group around them
I am an avid volunteer
I love words, reading or writing them!
My core values are honesty, integrity, empathy, kindness and a belief that anyone can live their life to their full potential if they just dare to dream
I am a queen of manifestation, who loves helping others to also turn their dreams in to reality
I live in South Wales, UK and I am married to my first boyfriend (we were apart for 31 years)
I believe family is everything
I am a loyal friend and carer of others
I practice self-care daily to support my well-being.
I am an author, an award-winning speaker and business mentor
It has been said I help others to feel amazing!
