Hello there!
Thank you for stopping by.
I am delighted to share with you some amazing news! I did it! Something I have been talking about for over 20 years and something I have been working on for over a decade is now just starting to see the light of day! As in, the dream of me writing my first book is coming true. Well, soon that is. The manuscript has been in a rewrite stage for the past year, and it is almost completed. Once I am finished, it goes back to my literary partner for the next steps; subedit, copy edit, typeset and printing. I am hoping for a 2024 publication. You can sign up to follow my blog to receive monthly updates.
My book is entitled Junk to Jewels, A Journey from Brokenness and Despair to Beauty and Delight. The genre is nonfiction, and it shares my story, a God rescue story really, from my first marriage separation, to divorce, to single motherhood. The story includes God’s rescue, when He showed up for me and my daughter in response to cries made to Him from the floor of my dream closet in what was supposed to be a dream home. God showed up at the very lowest time in my life when my marriage was falling apart and guided me through the death of said marriage into my wilderness. I learned how to live life alone for the first time and as a single mom. Ultimately, God answers prayers for a second chance at love and romance but not until many layers of healing occurred. There were divine appointments, serendipity and many tears of joy and sorrow.
This book inspired a new podcast, Junk to Jewels with Georgette Beck, a new show launching soon. If you love to be inspired by amazing stories of people who have overcome challenges and hardships you’ll want to subscribe and download the episodes that will be released every two weeks. As the show’s host, I will be sharing my journey as described in my book and talking with you about the amazing nuggets of truths and inspiration gleaned from the many books I have read. There will also be guests invited to share their own Junk to Jewels story and experiences. You will get to meet my promised second chance at love and romance man, Scott Beck, God’s promise to me as described in Ruth 3:10 – 12 in response to one of my many prayers cried out on the floor from desperation and despair of life’s circumstances.
Heart matters, matter. I have always been an individual who has not been afraid to share my heart and emotional struggles with God and others. I help others share their heart pains as well. As a story gatherer, reader, writer, who loves to inspire and educate others, I naturally am curious about people’s lives. Asking questions comes easy for me. And it helps that I offer up my own story and heart first. It paves the way for the other heart to gather courage and open up. I have learned that by sharing our own hurts and pains, it sheds love, light and new perspective and we are helped.
My personal mission is to inspire, encourage, educate, and mentor others as they heal from their past, in the present for their future, and help them discover their unique destiny purpose. Just like God did for me and continues to do for me.
One night during my single mom season, I had an epiphany. I was an insurance producer/agent at the time, and I knew that I did not wish to do this in the years ahead, but desired to make a difference in the lives of others. I wanted to help people like God used people to help my daughter and me. I would never have survived if it weren’t for all the individuals God brought into our lives. I felt a strong nudging to go back to college. There were no funds. I obeyed God’s prodding and went to our local community college and applied. I leaped in faith. Many wonderful adventures came about afterwards. All discussed in my book. It was here too that I knew someday I would create a nonprofit that would help single moms and their children. A year ago, my now husband of almost 20 years (May we celebrate our 20th anniversary) started a nonprofit, Bella Healing Hearts Foundation, to serve single parent families. Slowly we have plans to develop the nonprofit to provide support, mentoring, educational scholarships, and financial assistance as funds allow.
The vision placed in my heart during my single mom years has evolved through the decades and is now being implemented, layer by layer. God loves to place giant dreams within your heart and my heart to bring about in the right time.
There will be other books. There is a part two to my first book where I write about what happened after the promised second chance man came into our lives. Was it a happy ever after scenario? There was my daughter and I and then there was a blended family. As any step parent knows, there are a lot of changes and acclimations. My naïve heart had no idea. But God is good, and He never left me or my husband. He kept my husband and I going and kept our marriage intact through some extremely difficult times.
God led my husband into the real estate arena as a realtor a few years after he retired as a Law Enforcement Officer of 30 years. A year later, God had me join him. Scott and I are the Beach Front Becks with Beach Front Mann Realty. You can follow Scott or myself on Facebook or Instagram. The real estate endeavors will hopefully help fund our nonprofit, until it’s developed enough to stand on her own, and all of the other heart dream projects.
A portion of proceeds from my books will also be donated to Bella Healing Hearts Foundation. And Junk to Jewels will be developed into an organization that brings inspiration, hope, and help to many hearts via my books, speaking engagements, on-line courses, workshops, and products.
Dear one, you are encouraged to send us your prayer requests, especially let us know what your dreams are so we can come along side you in prayer. Prayers is what brought God into my life in such a way that it changed everything for the good despite loss, hardship, sorrow, and difficulties. Prayers brought much joy, happiness, and destiny purpose into existence for me. Prayers can do that for you too.
