About Martha

author. speaker. wayfinder.

Martha Beck, PhD, is a Harvard-trained sociologist, world-renowned coach and New York Times bestselling author. She has published nine non-fiction books, one novel, and more than 200 magazine articles.

I’m shocked every time someone introduces me as a “best-selling author,” because I’ve never written to sell myself, only to save myself. Writing is my favorite tool for addressing and dissolving my own suffering. At some point I discovered that it could help others, too. Since then I’ve been humbled by the responses I receive to my books and articles. My most recent stint as a monthly contributor for O, The Oprah Magazine, has lasted 17 years.

The Change Cycle

You may have heard it said that change is the one constant in life.

We live in a world where change is happening faster than ever before in history, and that pace is only going to accelerate.

So how do we cope with changes that blindside us? How can we use them as opportunities to do better—and be happier?

These are the questions that led Martha to develop The Change Cycle, her psychological framework for understanding and navigating life’s big transitions.
