about bethny

Bethny writes and speaks about the things most people are thinking but not saying — self-doubt, resilience, the gap between where you are and where you thought you'd be by now. Her book Face Forward: Reclaiming Hope When Everything Falls Apart came out of one of the hardest seasons of her own life, and it has given readers a candid, practical guide for navigating theirs. Her platform is growing toward video content focused on self-doubt — the real kind, not the Instagram kind.

Bethny speaks to audiences carrying real responsibility and facing uncertain next steps. Her delivery is direct and grounded, with enough warmth to invite honesty without softening the message. She helps people examine the internal narratives affecting how they lead under pressure, then gives them something practical to do with what they recognize.

In her book Face Forward and her essays on Substack, Bethny writes about the moments when certainty fractures and the life a woman expected no longer fits. Drawing from career setbacks, divorce, parenting, health scares and periods when faith felt difficult, she explores what it takes to remain whole when the expected life falls apart.

Her work is unflinching and spiritually anchored, with unusual precision about the cost of self-betrayal. Readers see their own experiences more clearly and learn to separate inherited expectations from the truth they know now.

Bethny also leads consulting work through Periscope, where she serves as CPO and helps organizations navigate the intersection of people, strategy, and performance. If you're interested in working with her in that capacity, reach out directly.
