Paula Langguth Ryan
COMMUNICATIONS FACILITATOR, conflict consultant, keynote speaker

My Story

Before I became a pioneer of the contemporary prosperity movement, a renowned communications facilitator and a highly regarded speaker and coach…
…before I began my quest for full authenticity with every word I speak or write…
…before I helped a single business increase its profits…
…before I helped a single church resolve a conflict that threatened to split the church…
…before I helped a single individual achieve their dreams (of building more positive relationships, being in theatre, being in the Olympics, creating their own foundations, blowing up old stories and beliefs, and 1000+ other dreams)…
…before my first book (Bounce Back From Bankruptcy) became a bestseller…
…before the legendary New Thought minister Catherine Ponder wrote the foreword to my second book (Giving Thanks: The Art of Tithing)…
…before I started doing sustainable work in Kenya with The Village Gathering
…before I became a financial crusader for people in debt…
…before I began my quest for full authenticity with every word I speak or write…

…I was a 19 year old college drop-out who was estranged from her family, $35,000 in debt, stuck in a whirlpool of destructive behaviors, and telling people whatever they wanted to hear instead of speaking my authentic truth.

Everything changed when I woke up from a 4-day coma on my 21st birthday.

34 years later, I’ve got a laundry list of outer accomplishments, but it’s my inner transformations that mean the most to me…

Sure, I’ve been on national television (NBC, PBS, and New Thought Channel) and radio (NPR’s WEEKEND EDITION and BTR’s CONFLICT-FREE ZONE), for example.

I’ve been a featured speaker in 4 countries and 27 states, and have had clients in 10 countries to date.

I’ve released books, CDs, DVDs, and hosted a daily radio show for two years!

I’ve become an internationally-respected “confidential, conflict resolution and communications consultant” for individuals, couples , businesses, charities and churches. (How’s that for alliteration?)

I’ve gotten ordained as an Independent Unity Minister, mediated local and international conflicts, and helped thousands of ordinary people release the extraordinary person who was trapped inside them.

But what I’m most proud of is when someone tells me “I walk my talk.” Every single tip, tool, technique, phrase, exercise and navel-reflecting action I recommend is something I’ve personally used to transform a part of my life that wasn’t serving me.

I’ve discovered how to truly live a life where I respond rather than react. Where I see beyond appearances. Where I know, with every fiber of my being, that I am safe and I am loved. And that’s my prayer for you! That – somewhere, somehow, someday – you find yourself in this same place. (And that it doesn’t take you 30 plus years to get here!)

I live to hold sacred space for others. To share what I’ve found works and doesn’t work. To see the look on your face and the sound of your voice and the vibrant words in the notes you write when you have that “aha” moment and see the visible, tangible results that your changed perspective and attitude create in your life.

This site – and my blog, podcasts, videos and newsletters – are filled with time-tested advice and tools you can use right now to transform some area of your life. You’ll also find some products for sale, upcoming events you can attend and services you can opt to use, including my coaching/consulting services – and places where you can donate to our 501c3 non-profit, The Village Gathering, if you’re so guided to give when something feeds your Spirit.

Now that you know more about me, I invite you to tell me more about you, and whether or not TODAY will be the day everything changes for you!

All my love,
Paula
