Personal Details

Bio

Becky L McCoy is an engaging writer and speaker on spiritual formation who helps women who are disillusioned with their faith bravely face difficult life circumstances with tenderness.

As a young widow who has processed her own grief, learned to live with anxiety and depression, and adjusted her perspective on what it means to suffer, Becky earned a Masters in Christian Theology and Spiritual Formation and uses these experiences and tools to guide women in discovering gentle, trauma informed ways of being and believing.

Becky’s work has been featured in The Mighty, (in)courage, Babble, and other publications and podcasts as well as Great Day Connecticut on the local news channel WFSB. She has taught workshops and led sessions for Hope*Writers, Jeff Goins’ Mastermind Group, and Writer’s Retreat at God’s Whisper Farm as well as presented at local public schools and regional colleges and churches.

Becky currently serves the Brian Dagle Foundation, a non-profit for grief support and suicide prevention as the Communications & Outreach Coordinator and hosts the podcast Sucker Punched as well as BRAVEtogether virtual retreats and live events.

Everyday Courage

What does it mean to be brave in your regular, everyday life? In this message, Becky will challenge listener's perspectives on what it means to live courageously by equipping them with the five aspects of courage: Affirmation, Integrity, Failure, New Beginnings, and Community. The audience with leave feeling empowered to live bravely.

Know Who You Are

It feels impossible to make decisions in your personal and professional life when you're not even sure why you're making those choices. Becky will help the audience see why it's important to know who you are and allow your strengths, weaknesses, and passions to inform what you do. Audience members will leave your event feeling like they have something significant to contribute to their community and workplace and encourage the people around them to be confident about who they were created to be.

Uncomplicated Gatherings

Why do we feel so much pressure to make our home and our gatherings Pinterest perfect? In this message, Becky debunks the myth that hospitality is about beautiful venues and fancy food (although, those are definitely fun!) and encourages audience members to view hospitality as an opportunity to create space in their lives for people and to let them know they belong. The audience will leave your event with practical tools for planning gatherings that will encourage deeper conversation and more intimate and vulnerable relationships.

Contemplative Christian Practices for When You're Grieving, Burned Out, or Living with Mental Ilness

Many people feel like attending church and studying the Bible are the only ways to be Christian. But what happens when grief, burnout, and mental illness make church and Bible study inaccessible and anxiety inducing? In this talk, Becky will present several contemplative practices to connect with God even when life is overwhelming or our bodies and minds have a limited capacity.
