My Journey: Onwards and Upwards

For over two decades, Beverly Flores, a leadership coach specializing in executive burnout, has guided high-achieving professionals from autopilot to authentic, purpose-driven success. Her story is one of courage, transformation, and the power of a strategic ‘Thyme Out’.
I believe the most meaningful success is the kind we build with heart. After a dynamic 24-year career in the Fortune 100 world, helping to transform a global brand, I realized my true calling wasn’t just in corporate strategy—it was in human potential. I launched Thyme Out Consulting for one reason: to help incredible people who feel stuck on a treadmill of success rediscover their purpose and lead with authentic, courageous impact personally and professionally.
From Corporate Trailblazer to Soul-Aligned CEO

Courage to Change, Strength to Lead
My path to founding Thyme Out Consulting was unveiled during a pivotal moment: a corporate restructuring at John Deere. After years of success, I felt a growing dissonance between my leadership values and my environment. The restructuring offered a choice: return to corporate life, or courageously pursue my deeper calling. Recalling a mentor’s question that had echoed for years—“I can’t wait to see what you do when you have fun”—I chose freedom and purpose. I chose to build a business that challenged the status quo of leadership development from the ground up.
Our Guiding Beliefs
Through our unique EEI System™, we’ve helped leaders discover their true potential, leading to measurable growth in their careers and fostering a culture of excellence within their organizations.
Why ‘Thyme Out’?
The name Thyme Out Consulting was chosen with great intention. “Thyme” is an herb that historically symbolizes courage and strength—qualities every leader needs. A “Timeout” is a strategic pause for clarity, renewal, and planning the next successful play. Together, they represent my core philosophy: that real growth begins when we have the courage to step back, reconnect with our purpose, and move forward with conviction. This philosophy is the foundation of the EEI System™ and every engagement I lead.

A Legacy of Courage and Connection
I don’t just coach leadership—I live it. As a single mother to three incredible sons, my greatest legacy is the one I’m building at home. I’ve always chosen experiences over things, believing a global perspective and shared adventures are the greatest gifts. This commitment to “living a full life” is woven into everything I do. When I’m not speaking, consulting, or traveling the world (16 countries and counting!), you can find me baking jaw-dropping cakes, running for mental clarity, or cheering for England rugby or cricket. It’s all part of leading with Energy, Enthusiasm, and Intensity. Make it YOURS when you “Own Your Career, Love Your Life”

Let yourself move forward
Onwards and Upwards,
Beverly Flores
