Welcome to my official website! It's really great to have you here. This is a very personal reflection of who I am, so feel free to explore and find out more about me. You can read my blog here and I hope you'll join our Dreamers Network online community. I'm also on Facebook and Twitter/@barbaraniven.

Check out my new SHOW BUSINESS 101 Performance Coaching blog site for lots of tips & updates on my workshops & coaching. I can teach you easy, professional acting skills & secrets you can use in your own pitches, presentations, videos & TV/radio interviews! I can also direct & coach you to create videos for your website or YouTube.
 
Remember, every moment you have a choice...to go towards your dream or away from it. You have to ACT as if! it's already happening until it is! That's more important than ever in this economic climate. Please don't settle for less than wonderful in your life. And don't give up five minutes before the miracle!

Thank you to Kathy at Shadoeworks® for her incredible vision creating this website and all my entertainment imaging. We have a lot of things in the works to empower you and your dreams.

Speaking News:
I hope you got to hear my Public Speaking Masters teleclass series! I was honored to be one of five renowned coaches who shared public speaking & presentation secrets in this five-week series of calls. If you missed it, it will be available soon to order as mp3s and transcripts.

I love these ladies on the left. YES! This shot was taken recently when I spoke at the iLearningGlobal Regional Conference in Orlando. Thank you ladies for the inspiration! Here's to success & an amazing attitude!

This photo of me hugging the young lady on the left was taken on my recent Michigan Speaking Tour, where I spoke to over 2,000 students about my battle with Bulimia & Eating Disorders. I call this my Toilet Tour :) because I always have a white toilet on stage with me as I purge my secrets, so that others will get help. We've had amazing success stories! Let me know if you want me to speak to your group!

Acting News:

Summer's Blood is now called Summer's Moon & it's out on DVD Nov. 10th. It's an indie psychological horror film and I play a part unlike anything I've done before - a gritty, alcoholic, demented mother. (We actors love this stuff!) We are getting some great buzz on it so far. Ashley Greene (with me on the left) is also in it - she's currently starring in "Twilight" and the sequel. She is a doll too. Click here for the trailer. (warning: it's violent) 

I just finished shooting Accused at Seventeen with Cynthia Gibb, soon to be on Lifetime. It's a wonderful thriller, and I get to play a bad girl this time. I call my character an "Orange County Housewife" wannabe.  A delicious Bitch. :)
