Meet the Face Behind the Brand
During her 15 years at Lycée Français de New York, an international French school, Lysbeth Ricketts discovered her passion for exploring different cultures. From a very young age, Lysbeth traveled the world for social, educational, professional, and ministerial purposes. Although her ultimate goal was to become an international corporate lawyer, God had a different path for her. Aligned with His will, Lysbeth pursued and obtained her Master's in Business Administration and her Master's in International Management in Barcelona, Spain.
​
After completing both programs, Lysbeth returned to the United States and began working as an International Business Consultant with Melissa & Doug, one of the leading educational children's manufacturers in the world. She quickly rose through the ranks, becoming a top consultant with clients around the globe.
After a few years, God instructed Lysbeth to close that chapter of her life. She eventually left her position to focus on her new family and to start a few businesses of her own. Lysbeth, along with her husband's ventures, found great success. Together, they traveled to all four corners of the world with their family, building schools, consulting teachers and school management teams, working hands-on with children, and successfully elevating many establishments to their desired levels.
​
Lysbeth continues to actively teach, including English to ESL students. Despite her immersion in the corporate world, she has always been a teacher at heart. She has been homeschooling her children for almost five years, during which she recognized a significant need. Parents everywhere were, and still are struggling to balance their lives while prioritizing their children's education.
In response, Lysbeth created a comprehensive program to help families achieve this balance. With her extensive experience and expertise, she aims to change the lives of parents today while enriching their children's minds.
Traveling
Ever since I was a little girl, traveling the world has meant so much more to me than just ticking destinations off a list or visiting famous landmarks. There’s a profound thrill in spending time with locals, learning what they love, and observing how they live. This experience sends chills through me every time. Traveling imparts life lessons that are nearly impossible to learn in a bustling metropolitan city like New York, where everyone is caught up in impressing, competing, and outshining one another.
For me, nothing compares to the joy of hearing different languages, tasting new foods—especially fruits—and worshiping alongside people from foreign lands. I live to explore and understand diverse cultures, always comparing and contrasting them with my own. I find immense beauty in the smallest things, like the time a little boy and I had an entire conversation without uttering a single word in English. These moments bring me unparalleled joy and peace.
If I could give one piece of advice to our generation and those to come, it would be this: travel not just to see the well-known, but to connect with the unknown.
