Elizabeth Barbour is a creative entrepreneur, coach, writer & celebration enthusiast dedicated to helping you embrace the magic and meaning in everyday life.

She knows a thing or two about the major transitions we face in our lives. Elizabeth has experienced incredible joys... marriage, parenthood, starting a business, reunion with her biological family. She has also survived devastating losses... The death of both of her parents, divorce and miscarriage. Perhaps you have experienced some of these too?

Change is the only constant in life. We are constantly navigating endings and beginnings. Sometimes change is scary, but often it is filled with possibilities. That’s what helps us to evolve and grow, right? And when we experience one of those joy-filled celebrations or navigate a devastating loss... It’s our community of friends and loved ones who show up, witness us, celebrate us, hold us and honor us that help to amplify the happiness or carry the pain.

It is Elizabeth's belief that we live in a culture that does not celebrate enough. We are always so busy, achieving goals and moving onto the next accomplishment. We need to stop and savor the moments that are so very precious to us. Life is short, and while it has plenty of challenges, it can also be very sweet if we focus on being present and showing up fully for ourselves and for our loved ones.

Rituals are the sacred containers that help us during these times of transition. Weddings and funerals, baby showers and retirement roasts, graduation ceremonies and milestone birthday parties. Rituals invite us to step out of ordinary reality and be fully present with ourselves, our loved ones and with spirit. Rituals ground us and serve as gateways as we pass from one stage of life to the next.
