Dr.

Dr. Rosenthal conducted quality audits for private companies producing safety equipment in
the United States,
Switzerland, and
Mexico.
Dr. Rosenthal is an established and proficient quality advisor and auditor with an extensive
total quality management (TQM) background. TQM
is a ‘holistic’ management system approach addressing challenges from
multiple perspectives and seeking to resolve underlying (root) causes rather
than simply treating presenting symptoms. Her work in quality was recognized by the American Society of Quality Control
in 1994 when she was given a Research Fellowship Grant. Currently,
Dr. Rosenthal manages her own coaching and consulting business, Loving Living
Life, Inc. and directs the activities of HCU.
Along
with her extensive background in business and the health field, Dr. Rosenthal
has a passion and natural talent for networking, connecting people with the
resources they need, and co-creating with them. Dr. Rosenthal is results
focused, action oriented, and relationship oriented. Her ability to
connect with people and build relationships makes her an extremely effective
solution-finder, teacher, facilitator, coach, consultant and speaker. Dr.
Rosenthal is an innovative industry resource, speaking to a global audience.
Her international exposure has been gained by living abroad, working abroad, and
teaching MBA students from all over the world.
Dr. Rosenthal received the highest evaluations from students and supervising faculty
while
teaching at
Cardean
University, an accredited online MBA program.
Dr. Rosenthal has facilitated and led numerous workshops and trainings, mostly in the arena
of living one’s best life (participant feedback can be read here.)
Dr.
Rosenthal has had the honor of speaking at numerous events including the Whole Life Expo
in 1998, the American Society of Quality Control in 1996 and the National
Wellness Conference in 1993. She has spoken at book stores and community events
across the country in the course of promoting her book.
Beth
is a passionate advocate of holistically oriented health care services, and is
the author of Where to Go When You’re Hurting: A Healing Resource Guide.
She is adept at expressing first hand knowledge gained through personal
experience, in such a way that others may benefit by applying her experiences to
their own lives. In 2002
Beth
received the Volunteer of the Year award from Christopher house for her
involvement with youth groups.
Beth
has also taught computer classes for disadvantaged (mostly homeless) people
through the non-profit organization Inspiration café.
Beth
was sick nearly every day of her life until she was 25 years old when she found
out she had food allergies and chemical sensitivities. Up until that point
she had seen countless conventional and alternative practitioners. This
personal experience as a consumer of health services from an early age gives an
added perspective to her involvement with healing centers. Now a healthy
and health conscious person,
Beth
truly appreciates health care services delivered with respect and care.
She has the utmost appreciation for feeling well and her life’s work is about
having well-being services that are nurturing and caring available to all who
desire them.
