About our Founder, Jill Beck
Why Me?
In my 20s, I worked in investment banking in New York and London while making poor lifestyle choices. Despite hitting the gym hard, I struggled with personal trainers who didn’t understand me. Wrist pain revealed rheumatoid arthritis (auto-immune disease #1), making it a 45-minute ordeal to get out of bed due to stiffness from medication.
In my 30s, during a burnout phase, I met my husband, moved to Seattle, and switched to tech. Determined to improve my health, I started running. My goal was survival, but running and healthy eating got me off meds in six months. I built up to marathons but was later diagnosed with colitis.
In my 40s, I embraced CrossFit and strength training while progressing in my tech career. My husband’s emergency brain surgery required my full-time attention, and I faced my third autoimmune disease. Menopause added more complexity to my health journey.
In my 50s, I’m stronger than ever. I achieved my first pull-up at 51, even through menopause. I left tech to help women with autoimmune diseases live their best lives. I’ve made all the mistakes and learned from them.
So now what?
My mission is to help you avoid those mistakes and live your best life. It’s about making small, incremental changes and having someone to be accountable to, someone who can connect the dots through experience.
With my 30 years of experience solving complex problems for companies ranging from 10 person start-ups to Fortune 100 companies, I’m taking these skills and experiences to help others with their health and burnout recovery journeys.
Through a tried and true process, I can help you break down stressful and high-stakes situations into manageable tasks. I offer a no BS approach, full of empathy for where you are. I help you understand your WHY so that you can actually get healthier vs. just scratching the surface.
I want to help make your life unapologetically awesome.
Let’s Go Long together!
