Joan's Background
Joan King's life path embodies the blending of the hard and noetic sciences. At the tender age of seventeen, she stepped into life at the Dominican convent in her hometown of New Orleans, Louisiana. Eleven years later she left that religious training to become a chemist, and then received a Ph.D. in neuroscience and psychology. Her twenty-year tenure as a professor at Tufts University School of Medicine led her to a dynamic crossroads of personal self-discovery. She left academia.
Her newfound "inner knowing" ignited the writing of her first book. It became the foundation in understanding how our bodies model the teachings of our beliefs. Joan King's blending of science and spirituality birthed her professional coaching business, Beyond-Success LLC, in 1998. Today, Joan is helping others apply these same dynamics for women and men in relationships and business as a Master Certified Coach and trainer of coaches. As an author, Joan is finishing her work with the cellular wisdom series: The Code of Authentic Living; Cellular Wisdom for Women; Cellular Wisdom at Work; Cellular Wisdom for Relationships; and Cellular Wisdom for Men.
