About Beck Thompson

Despite her early life being dominated by childhood trauma and parental neglect, you will not hear Beck use the terms ‘survivor’ or ‘thriver’.
Trauma would not be the hero nor her legacy of her life.
She made it her personal mission to change the way her childhood trauma had tainted her view of the world.
Her approach to trauma recovery was determined and unabashedly honest, getting real with the girl within to repair and renew her sense of worth and value despite an Everest of obstacles that continuously stood in her way.
Giving up simply wasn’t an option.

If you ask Beck what she’s achieved in her forty plus years, in a worldly sense, she is a devoted mother and holds a Bachelor of Education but Beck’s most prized achievement is her sense of normalcy and peace. Something she worked tirelessly behind the scenes at, for the past 20 years.

Beck is tenacious, determined and has an unwitting ability to cut through the rubbish and get to the heart of problems.

Beck is an author of her memoir Chasing Normal, a primary teacher, speaker and presenter.
She lives in Queensland with her husband and three children.

Beck is a multifaceted individual with a powerful journey of resilience, transformation, and empowerment. As a teacher, author, and speaker, she brings a unique perspective shaped by her lived experience of trauma and abuse, inspiring others with her unwavering belief in change and the human capacity for healing.
