Ruth Pearson's life is one of overcoming challenges and using them as stepping stones to greater things. Her attendance at a women retreat, in May 2014, called 'Overcoming Emotional Baggage' was to change her life in a miraculous way and it started her journey of being an author. Ruth attended the event on the Friday, lame, unable to walk without assistance, but left on Sunday walking! You can read about this miracle in her book, 'Listening for God's Voice.'

Ruth has taken her writing skills to the next level. In November 2020 she launched Listening To Your Voice Publishing.

Ruth is also an inspirational motivational speaker, Wellbeing and Conflict Resolution Trainer and Coach. She is the founder of her own coaching strategy called Empowering Transformations: To Bring out the Greatness Within. With all of these skills she works with clients so they can say "yes" to new opportunities!
