About Ruth

Ruth is an enthusiastic encourager, inspirer and teacher.
Her great desire is that people come to know God’s joy and are able to achieve their destiny.

After studying commercial economics, for ten years Ruth worked in various marketing positions in The Netherlands and France. Ruth: ‘For years I wondered, Is this what I’m living for? Doesn’t God have a better plan for me? My CV looked great. But I felt empty and unfulfilled. And always there was that nagging voice, “Am I doing well enough?”’

Burnout
After Ruth experienced burnout, she changed course completely. When she and her husband Ben had had two children, they moved to the United States. For three years they followed a theology course and gained practical experience.

Ruth experienced great personal breakthroughs by learning to know God’s Word better and applying it to her own situation. The experience of God’s love and grace gave Ruth inspiration to want to pass on everything she’d learned herself.

In the past ten years, Ruth has developed various training courses, trained new coaches and helped many to grow spiritually and to walk into their destiny.

Joyful Life Network
Through the Joyful Life Network, Ruth gives various courses such as ‘Develop a Positive Mindset’ and ‘Beliefs Training’. Newly planned is the ‘Joyful Life Leaders’ Intensive Course’, a course for leaders and business people who want to see breakthroughs in their lives and organisations. The mission of the Joyful Life Network is: Empowering you to live in your destiny with joy!
