About us

“When a person seeks their purpose, the universe conspires to respond.” – Arabic Proverb

The Institute for Transformed Living was founded by partners and Dr. Bertice Berry, PhD, a sociologist and change-maker who has dedicated her life to the work of transformation. Her journey began many years ago, long before the world faced the challenges of a global pandemic. But it was during that time of isolation, fear, and uncertainty that Berry realized people needed more than just inspiration, they needed practical tools for true transformation, right where they were.

What started as a series of viral social media stories on history, hope, and belonging quickly grew into a thriving online community of over 200,000 people. Berry’s stories resonated deeply with individuals from all walks of life, sparking a movement toward self-discovery and personal growth. Recognizing the growing desire for deeper learning, Berry and her partners expanded the Institute as a place where lifelong learners could explore the universe within themselves, unlocking the truth of who they are and embracing the journey of transformation.

In recognition of her dedication to this work to change and transformation, Savannah Technical College dedicated classrooms in her honor in 2011, as a testament to the impact she has made in the lives of so many.

Today, the Institute for Transformed Living offers a wide range of programs designed to support individuals on their path to transformation. Our offerings include workshops, webinars, retreats, pastoral and corporate care, as well as one-on-one and group facilitation. Responding to the growing demand from corporations, we have also introduced digital courses focused on wellness, diversity and inclusion, leadership development, and spiritual care.

Our mission is simple yet powerful: to empower individuals to live lives of intention, purpose, meaning, and connection. We believe that true transformation happens when all aspects of ourselves, mind, body, and spirit, are integrated and aligned. Through our programs and resources, we guide you on a journey of self-discovery and growth, supporting you with being all that you were created to be reflecting the truth of who you truly are.

At the Institute for Transformed Living, we are here to support you every step of the way. Whether you are seeking personal growth, professional development, or spiritual enrichment, we invite you to join our community and start your journey toward a more fulfilling and transformative life.
