About Bev Janisch

Who is Bev Janisch?

Welcome, I’m Bev. I’m glad you’re here!

As a former nurse turned meditation teacher, mindfulness life coach, Enneagram practitioner and HeartMath Certified Mentor, I’m on a mission to guide individuals from stress and disconnection, to lives of clarity, inner peace, and fulfillment, empowering people to live as their truest selves.

Every day, I see bright, capable individuals suffering under the weight of daily overwhelm and what I’ve come to call disconnection stress—the hidden tension that arises when we become disconnected from ourselves, our purpose, or the people around us.. Health issues, anxiety, sleepless nights, and emotional overwhelm are often symptoms of a deeper call for change—a call I know intimately because it was my own.

My Turning Point

On top of mount Kilimanjaro.In 2012, I stood on top of Mount Kilimanjaro, one of the highest peaks in the world, feeling my lowest. On the outside, my life appeared perfect, but on the inside, I was deeply disconnected from myself.

Years of living out of alignment with my true needs and values had taken a toll on my health, relationships, and sense of purpose. I realized I had two choices: remain stuck or begin the journey of rediscovering who I was beneath the roles, conditioning and expectations. I chose transformation—and that decision changed everything.

This experience not only led me to reclaim my own life but also inspired me to help others transform their overwhelm into peace, disconnection into self-awareness, and feeling stuck into growth and greater possibility.

A Proven Path to Peace & Possibility

At the heart of my work is the 4 Keys for Peace and Possibility Framework—a holistic path that bridges science and soul to empower people with the tools and a map to transform their overwhelm and disconnection stress into vitality, connection and purpose.

The 4 Keys Framework emerged from seeing how traditional stress management approaches often fell short by focusing soley on daily stressors and surface level solutions. By bridging the gap between scientific understanding and soulful wisdom, this innovative approach integrates neuroscience, mindfulness, psychology, emotional resilience and universal spiritual principles with practical mind-body techniques to live happier, healthier and more fulfilled lives.

The 4 Keys to unlock peace and Possibility:

  • Self-Regulation – Tools to feel calm and find stability amid stress.
  • Self-LovePractices to replace self-criticism with kindness.

  • Self-Discovery – Guidance to discover and become your truest self.

  • Self-ExpressionSupport to align your life with your needs and values.

This framework isn’t just a concept; it’s a proven roadmap that shows us it is possible to live with greater calm, clarity and contentment. If you’re curious about the path to both survive and thrive, you can learn more about the 4 Keys HERE.

Why I Do This Work

I understand how stress and disconnection create cycles that ripple through every aspect of life—our health, relationships, emotions, and sense of purpose. But through my journey and work with hundreds of clients, I’ve discovered something profound: these challenges aren’t just problems to solve—they’re invitations to deeper self-discovery and authentic empowerment.

I’ve witnessed remarkable transformations when people get the tools, insights and support they need : clients finding their authentic voice, healing chronic health issues, and discovering the peace that comes from living in alignment with their truest selves.

My mission is to guide you home to yourself using a proven framework and transformative tools. Whether you’re seeking relief from overwhelming stress or feeling called to self-discovery because you’re lost, confused or stuck, I offer both the practical tools and soulful guidance needed to create lasting change.

In 2019, I published Awakening A Woman’s Soul: The Power of Meditation and Mindfulness to Transform Your Life to share these insights more widely. While my book focused on women, my approach has evolved to guide anyone seeking deeper alignment and peace.

Ready to Begin Your Journey?

Whether you’re seeking immediate stress relief or deeper self-discovery, my approach meets you where you are while opening the door to greater possibilities. Through one-on-one coaching, workshops, and resources, I guide you in applying these proven principles to your unique journey.
