The Effortless Success for Women Entrepreneurs Programs are the “brain-child” of popular, well-renowned and respected Life-style / Business Coach Ruth Hegarty. Ruth is a Certified Law of Attraction Coach and Certified Award Winning Educator. She co-host the popular entertaining and life-changing radio show, The Art of Joyful Living which helps people from all walks of life live more intentionally and joyfully.Ruth’s is a respected expert in the area of confidence/self-esteem building and lifestyle design whose passion is helping women entrepreneurs who want to have it all – a successful business, time with husband and kids, time for self and time to be of service to the global community – without sacrificing anything to get there. Ruth believes that enjoying the journey to any destination is equally as important as arriving.
As a child, Ruth grew up being extremely introverted, personally shy and publicly insecure about speaking up and asserting herself. She was perceived as being what one might refer to as somewhat “motivationally challenged,” so she wasn’t always on the “fast track to success and achievement. Ruth was so shy and unsure of herself that her parents encouraged her to speak up at home by giving her a nickel every time she could say something at one end of the apartment that they could hear at the other. She would sit at one end of the long hallway with her father and repeat "Hi, Mom" many times until her mother could hear her at the other end of the hallway. As you can imagine, this level of shyness made it next to impossible for Ruth to socialize at school or prepare for a career. Ruth struggled for many years with debilitating shyness and depression, self-injury and agoraphobia.
Luckily, as Ruth grew up and recognized just how much her fear and lack of "voice" held her back she determined to change her situation. Over many years of trial and error Ruth was able to discover the secrets to becoming confident, finding her voice and living the joyful life she always knew was out there for her. That is why today Ruth is such an inspirational speaker/coach/educator with a deep passion for empowering others to experience the transformational power of accessing their own inner wisdom and creating effortless and joyful lives. Ruth uses her personal experiences and insights, her training and experience as a transformational educator and Law of Attraction coach and the inspiration she gets from seeing amazing client results to help women entrepreneurs create effortless success on their own terms.
Ruth’s journey of discovery on how to be happy within herself and, hence, how to live joyfully in this world, is the foundation upon which all of her work is based. That authentic experience coupled with her years of extensive training and research in practical and powerful business strategies is the foundation of her uniquely eclectic and highly effective methodology that has helped hundreds of women entrepreneurs create effortless success.
Ruth loves coaching and teaching and comes from a family of teachers. She is most often described as an entertaining (just ask her; she’ll tell you she’s funny!), empowering and fearless presence with unbounded enthusiasm and insightful practical advice. Clients and Program Participants often marvel that there is no questio Ruth can’t answer. Ruth is a master at creating learning environments that establish trust, safety, respect and well-being and accelerate transformational learning experiences for participants (because, or course, the best learning comes from feeling and experiencing something for yourself). Her message inspires all who hear it to reevaluate their thought, word and action habits as well as how they approach change and how they define who has the power in their lives so that they can more easily discover and embrace their own unique power and ability to create amazing and positive outcomes.
Ruth is founder of Leap of Confidence, a leader in personal empowerment and an avid promoter of self-determination, teaching women entrepreneurs to unleash the powerful joyful creator within themselves.

6 Questions That Uncover Your Brilliance
I talk to my clients and students all the time about their unique brilliance. At first people can find the idea of being uniquely brilliant intimidating. We are often taught that it’s not OK to claim our greatness. Quite frankly, that just isn’t true.

4 Ways to Raise Your Bottom Line by Being Adventurous in Your Business
I received a card this week from a friend that contained this quotation from Helen Keller: “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.” It got me thinking about the ways that I am adventurous in my business and noticing that when I’m adventurous, that is when I am the most successful. To be adventurous means that you participate in exciting enterprises and bold undertakings. Are you adventurous in how you run your business? What would it look like for you if you we

Fall In Love With Yourself
Let me remind you of just how delightful you are. It's very hard to attract what you want if you do not feel irresistibly attractive to yourself - your whole, deep, authentic and wonderful self. The definition of the Law of Attraction is that like attracts like. If you judge yourself, berate your shortcomings, feel unconfident about your talents, choices and desires or feel remotely unworthy of love and the other things you want, guess what you will attract?

Don’t Be a Trash Talker
I was recently reading a study that found that close to 95% of people are unskilled, unpracticed or amateurs in the art of interpersonal communication. That shocked me.

This article outlines several key communication concepts that, when practiced and in

Four Must Have Attitudes that Make Your Business Grow
All success comes first and foremost from your mindset. Without attitudes that support and foster your well-being and success you won’t reach the levels of true success you want and deserve.
