Leadership Isn't Just Learned. It's Lived.

What audiences remember about Beth isn't the framework. It's the moment they realize she isn't talking about theory.

For more than 30 years, Beth investigated fraud, corruption, and misconduct inside organizations around the world. She spent her career studying how people behave when the pressure is real and the stakes are high.

Then she discovered those same survival patterns operating in her own life.

Today, Beth helps people recognize the hidden survival patterns adopted in years past that influence trust, decision-making, relationships, and performance, and provides a practical pathway to lead, live, and love better.

"The survival patterns that shape our lives don't disappear when we become successful."

Beth Jones Speaking FAQ's

What topics do you speak on?

I offer four primary keynotes plus a special keynote, and nine additional topics. My keynotes range from my signature transformation story (Let's HEAL!) to workplace integration strategies (When Life Happens at Work), purpose-driven career pivots (Redefining Abundance), and accessible healing frameworks (You, Too, Can Heal). My special keynote, There But For God's Grace, explores the thin line between surviving and suffering through raw vulnerability about addiction and grace.

Beyond my keynotes, I speak on topics including discovering your soul's work, transforming relationships through healing, soul-plane healing, recognizing divine messages, the journey of childhood sexual abuse survivors, learning to love, healing parent wounds, finding healthy romantic relationships, and healing impossible relationships even after death.

 

How long are your presentations?

All but my special keynote presentations are flexible and can be customized to fit your event:

  • 20 minutes - Perfect for packed agendas or luncheon and fundraiser keynotes  
  • 30 minutes - Ideal for conference breakouts or corporate events
  • 60 minutes - Full keynote with deep dive and audience engagement
  • TEDx format - 18 minutes for TEDx events
  • Workshops - 90 minutes to half-day for deeper work

I'm happy to adjust to your specific timing needs, and can combine topics, particularly for the Workshops format.

My special keynote is a 20-minute presentation.

Do you speak virtually or only in-person?

Both! I'm available for:

  • In-person events (I'm based in Duncanville, Texas and travel globally)
  • Virtual presentations (via Zoom, Teams, or your preferred platform)
  • Hybrid events (speaking in-person with virtual audience participation)

Virtual presentations include the same energy, storytelling, and engagement as in-person—I've mastered connecting through the screen.

Can you customize your presentation for our specific audience?

Absolutely! While my core stories remain consistent, I customize:

  • Industry-specific examples relevant to your audience
  • Language and terminology that resonates with your group
  • Key takeaways aligned with your event goals
  • Length and format to fit your schedule
  • Opening/closing to tie into your event theme

I always have a pre-event consultation to understand your audience, goals, and desired outcomes.

What's your speaking fee?

Speaking fees vary based on:

  • Event type (corporate, nonprofit, conference, etc.)
  • Presentation length
  • Travel requirements
  • Customization needs
  • Virtual vs. in-person

Please contact me at beth@empoweredsurvivors.com for a customized quote. I'm committed to making my message accessible and working with organizations to find solutions that fit their budgets.

Do you offer workshops in addition to keynotes?

Yes! I offer:

  • Half-day workshops (3-4 hours) - Deep dive into the HEAL Framework™ with interactive exercises
  • Full-day workshops (6-8 hours) - Comprehensive healing journey work
  • Breakout sessions (60-90 minutes) - Focused topics for conference attendees
  • Panel discussions - I'm available as a panelist or moderator
  • Fireside chats - Intimate Q&A format

Workshops include practical tools, group discussions, and actionable strategies participants can implement immediately.

What do you need from us as event organizers?

I'm low-maintenance and easy to work with—I just want to deliver maximum value to your audience! So, to ensure the best experience for your audience, I need the basics:

Before the event:

  • Pre-event consultation (30-60 minutes) to discuss audience, goals, and logistics
  • Audience demographics and background
  • Event theme and desired outcomes
  • Technical requirements confirmation

Day of event:

  • Standard A/V setup (microphone, projector/screen for slides, speaker remote)
  • Quiet backstage or green room space before presenting
  • Water at the podium
  • For virtual: tech check 30 minutes before

After the event:

  • Feedback forms or testimonials (if available)
  • Photos from the event for my portfolio
What makes your presentations different from other speakers?

Beth’s presentations are built on a single, integrated perspective: the understanding that survival patterns and leadership behavior are one and the same conversation. Where most leadership development programs address symptoms (communication, delegation, conflict resolution), Beth addresses the underlying operating system. Her forensic background gives her the precision to name behaviors most speakers generalize about. Her lived experience gives her the credibility to go where most speakers will not. And the HEAL Framework™ gives audiences a structured pathway forward, not just awareness.
