Celia Ward-Wallace is a Certified Life Coach, an inspirational speaker and author of "A Woman’s Guide to Having It All, Life Lessons to Live By." Through her movement of “Empowering Women Every Day” Celia is on a mission to mobilize 1,000,000 women to stand in their power, live a life of contribution and to manifest their greatness through her book, coaching programs, seminars and speaking engagements.

As an entrepreneur, mother and wife Celia knows all too well the challenges women face to be everything to all people, often at the sacrifice of taking care of themselves. After significant financial and personal losses, Celia re-evaluated her life and reconnected with her purpose and spirituality. This led her to become certified as a Life Coach, a leader of self-development seminars and a key note speaker. Celia inspires women to remember the key to life is that they already “have it all” within themselves and by focusing on self-love they can create the fulfilling and purposeful lives that they desire.

The daughter of life long political activists, she specialized in the study of intergroup conflict and prejudice as well as civil and women’s rights while at UCLA and the People’s College of Law. Due to her unique upbringing she has an affinity for all people of different cultures, religions, languages and socioeconomic backgrounds and celebrates difference as well as unity. She spent several years working in recreation and community services directing inner-city community centers. She has dedicated her life to social justice and helping people discover a better quality of life based on healing themselves with love not material abundance. Celia uses coaching tools and her gift of public speaking to share her journey in an effort to empower her audience to unveil their authentic selves and love them back to wholeness.
