Who is Bev Janisch?
A Guide for People Ready to Reconnect with Themselves
Do you feel disconnected from yourself and like you don’t know who you are anymore? Are you confused feeling like something is missing despite having so much to be grateful for?
I understand this journey intimately.
In 2012, I was standing on top of Mount Kilimanjaro, one of the highest peaks in the world, and I had never been lower.
Like many people I work with, I appeared to have the perfect life on the outside—but despite having much to be grateful for, the inner confusion and disconnect affected every aspect of my life—my health, my relationships, my sense of purpose. I was so busy fulfilling all the roles of wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend, and nurse that I slowly lost touch with who I really was.
It was a turning point: I could continue feeling stuck, or I could take the first step toward understanding who I was beneath the roles, expectations, and limiting beliefs.
This journey to find myself not only changed my life but inspired me to help others navigate their own journeys of self-discovery.
A Journey of Self-Discovery
After two decades as a master’s-prepared nurse, I discovered that true well-being starts with discovering our true selves and authentic lives that feel good to our souls. In 2014, I transitioned to teaching and coaching meditation and mindfulness practices, drawing on both modern science and ancient wisdom. Through deep study of mindfulness, meditation, and the Enneagram, I found the holistic tools and a map that not only transformed my own life, but that I now use to guide others on their journey home to themselves.
Today, as a mindfulness life coach, meditation teacher, Enneagram guide, and author, I support others who are where I once was—feeling disconnected from their themselves and longing for more vitality, connection and meaning.
A Transformative Path
Rooted in my own journey of transformation, the 4 Elements for True Self-Discovery offers a holistic framework that blends science and soul. By integrating ancient wisdom with evidence-based practices, it supports:
This isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level solutions. It’s a journey of profound self-discovery, helping you move beyond confusion and disconnection to find yourself and create an authentic life.
A Personal Mission
I deeply understand how feeling stressed and being disconnected from ourselves ripples through every aspect of life—our emotions, relationships, health, and sense of purpose. My mission is to guide you back to yourself, helping you transform this disconnection into meaning, inner peace, well-being and authentic happiness.
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.
If you’re feeling that gentle nudge toward self-discovery, know that transformation is possible. The confusion, self-doubt, and disconnection you’re experiencing aren’t permanent states—they’re invitations to reconnect with yourself so that you can feel calm, confident and content in your life. I’m here to light the way forward on your journey home to yourself.
