Beth Norton is a powerhouse public speaker who brings 10+ years of experience as a stand-up comedian and live storyteller to advocate for healing through access- to transportation, the arts and the outdoors. Next to the stage, the backcountry is Beth’s favorite place- two locations that terrify most people. She is open and available for speaking, emceeing, comedy, podcasts and interviews.

Beth spent most of her childhood in foster care and is the survivor of severe early childhood abuse, sexual abuse and parental abandonment. While Beth succeeded in all of the outward ways in early adulthood, she struggled to form and maintain relationships. Internally, there was a persistent and deep sense of worthlessness. Through much time in therapy, nature, performance art, and learning, Beth found her confidence, voice and self. These she considers her true accomplishments. For more of her story visit --> My Story.
