The story of

Terry Bean

I’ve always believed in magic—maybe because I saw the world through rose-colored glasses long before I ever wrote a book about it.
 
In 4th grade, I played Mother Nature in a school play. I walked on stage to a world that was dark and messy… and walked off transformed, wearing a beautiful gown and rose-colored glasses.
Those glasses never really came off. I’ve always looked at life with optimism, compassion, curiosity, and the belief that anything can become beautiful with the right perspective.

That belief has carried me through every chapter of my life.

I studied Communications and Marketing at the University of Hartford, then began my career in Manhattan. After two years in the city, I moved back to Connecticut, where I helped launch and build a property management company over the course of a decade. Eventually, the cold pushed me south to Florida, where I earned my Broker’s License, purchased a real estate company, and rode the wave until 2007.
 
Like many people after the crash, I explored different online businesses and reinvented myself more than once. But one thing stayed constant: the story I wrote in 2014—a magical little tale I knew I would someday bring to life.
That story became ABRA*CA*DABRA.
 
Today, I’m back in New York, caring for my Mom. This chapter of life is quieter, wiser, and deeply meaningful. With the world feeling more complicated than ever, I feel called to make things simpler… gentler… more joyful. Filled with love and laughter—even through the tough moments.

Certified As A Life & Executive Coach

 
I got certified as a Life & Executive Coach, trained through Mindvalley, where I deepened my passion for helping people uncover their inner power and live with intention, clarity, and joy. I’ll soon be coaching with Fortitude Associates, a premiere global consortium known for its strength, integrity, and collective wisdom.

Truthfully, this path began long before any certification. I’ve always been the “go-to” person—the one friends, colleagues, and even strangers seek out for advice, direction, and a grounded perspective. Coaching became a natural evolution of who I’ve always been.

My mission is simple: to help people remember the magic within themselves. Whether through my coaching work or my book ABRA*CA*DABRA, I guide others back to their confidence, creativity, and inner knowing… so they can create a life they truly love.

FILLED WITH GRATITUDE

I could not be doing any of this without the unwavering support of my sister and brother-in-law, my friends, and of course, my Mom. I also still feel… my Dad—who passed in 2010—along with my heavenly committee, cheering me on and guiding me in ways only they can.

As a debut children’s book author, speaker, and life & executive coach, I am truly filled with gratitude for the opportunity to share this journey with you.
