Beth Townsend

Life on Purpose—Author, Speaker, Award-Winning TV Show Host, and Purpose Coach!

On her own since the age of 17, right out of high school, Beth had no choice but to go to work. Starting as a property manager in Virginia, she climbed the corporate ladder and became a young executive, eventually serving as VP of Operations for a real estate company in Atlanta. As she transitioned into a training role within the industry, she was frequently asked one question that changed the course of her life: “How did you know your purpose?”

In her twenties, Beth had no clue what her purpose was. Realizing the depth of that question led her on a spiritual journey that continues to this day. Since 2001, she has been interviewing “on purpose” people with the goal of learning how to help others live a purpose-filled life.

From her book, Life on Purpose, Beth developed 9 Purpose Principles that can help anyone learn to be led so they can effectively lead others. Whether at work, in ministry, or at home, she believes we must set parameters in our lives to focus on what God has called us to do with passion—while also realizing that we were never meant to “do it all.”

For Beth, purpose is a mindset where passion lives, faith thrives, and God’s will is accomplished in the life of every believer!
