Julia Valentine Quick Facts
After Julia Valentine’s grandparents went through years of debilitating illness and emotional meltdown before their deaths, she began to think about the process of growing older and how people could live better lives as they pass from youth and young adulthood into older adulthood. She recalled people she had met in the Himalayas, Machu Picchu and Italy. They were alive, vibrant, joyful, fulfilled. In other words, age had no power over them. And so she embarked on a journey to observe, analyze and research the main themes of Joy Compass. She is passionate about figuring out life strategies that work, then sharing them with people in a simple and practical way. An avid world traveler, Julia has connected with people from all walks of life in India, China, Cambodia, Thailand, Russia, Peru, Costa Rica, Brazil and Western Europe. This exposure to many cultures coupled with growing up in Europe gave Julia an awareness of the wide range of values and beliefs in respect to well-being, aging and life satisfaction. Julia Valentine’s intention is to create amazing value in the lives of people who want to thrive at any age by providing resources, including her book, and a home base, in the form of an Internet community, for anyone who is interested in tapping into the legacy of her role models and the collective intelligence of people who want the second half of their life to be even better than the first. Julia honed her research and analytical skills developing new businesses and products for an international Fortune 500 company. She graduated magna cum laude with a bachelor of science degree in finance and economics from New York University, and she holds an executive MBA from Columbia University. She is a certified NLP Practitioner and Life Coach. Julia is the founder and CEO of JoyCompass.com.
