Who is Elizabeth? Well, in 2008, Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino closed the door to her finance office to think about her life. When she opened it, she walked out, leaving behind an almost two-decade career in the financial services industry to open the doors for The Best Ever You Network. Today Best Ever You is a multi-media brand and platform with millions of fans and followers worldwide.
As the CEO and founder, guiding spirit and energy behind the Best Ever You brand, Elizabeth brings audiences together with encouragement and inspiration. She understands firsthand the challenges of life, work, family, change, and struggle and has worked with people worldwide to illuminate their light within and help them uncover their best life and a better way forward.
Elizabeth is a bestselling author of multiple books in the children’s book genres and the self-help category, including the bestselling and award-winning books PERCOLATE – Let Your Best Self Filter Through and The Change Guidebook. Elizabeth’s gratitude-based belief systems and behavior have helped people to transform their lives by using her unique blend of humility and world-class excellence as a guide.
A member of the Forbes Business Council and creator of YOU Magazine, Elizabeth hosts her long-standing syndicated podcast, The Best Ever You Show, which has millions of downloads and listeners. Today, as she continues to expand Best Ever You, Elizabeth has returned to the financial services industry and serves as the Chief Executive Officer of Compliance4. Elizabeth holds a bachelor’s degree with honors in journalism from St. Ambrose University in Davenport, Iowa, and attended Harvard Business School for Leadership. Elizabeth is also a Certified Master Coach through Wainwright Global Inc.
Elizabeth lives her daily life with multiple life-threatening food allergies. In 1998, Elizabeth nearly lost her life from an allergic reaction to almonds. In 1999, she suffered a near-fatal allergic reaction while six months pregnant with her third son. She and her unborn child were hospitalized for more than a week following the reaction. Elizabeth has served as a spokesperson for the Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Connection Team (FAACT) and MedicAlert Foundation for over a decade. She works tirelessly to support others with similar conditions. She and co-author Sally Huss teamed up to create the bestselling children’s book A Lesson for Every Child: Learning About Food Allergies and Dream Big with Food Allergies . Elizabeth was featured in the book One of The Gang with football great Jerome Bettis.
Elizabeth and her husband, Peter, reside in Maine, have been married for over twenty-five years, and have four adult sons. As a family, they donate their time, money, and other resources to enrich the lives of others and support important causes. They have baked and donated tens of thousands of chocolate chip cookies for organizations and people throughout the United States. Elizabeth's cookies even won first place at the Cumberland County Fair in Maine.
Elizabeth and Peter also share three rescued cats and two dogs, Harley and Bahama, and can often be found in their gardens, in the pool, raking leaves, or, depending on the season, in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
In this episode Elizabeth shares that she is donating books to listeners and a few highly coveted personalized vision statements. If you are interested in either, email us at [email protected] for the next steps.
