There are no endings….. Just beginnings. Look around the corner to see What’s Next!

Valerie Ramsey is a firm believer that life is an adventure we create for ourselves and that we are never too old to have a new dream or to celebrate a new success. She has lived her life in direct contrast to most peoples’ by transitioning from baby bottles in her 20’s and 30’s (she is the mother of six) to a public relations career with the famed Pebble Beach Resorts in her 50’s to a modeling career, author and speaker in her 60’s.

For many years she was a stay-at-home mother raising her large family. Then, at age 53, with the children grown, she knew that she wanted to have a career of her own, and she went to work for Pebble Beach Resorts, working her way up from an entry level position to becoming public relations & media manager. It was during this time that she was recruited by a San Francisco modeling agency. At age 63 a second career was born.

Since her 50’s, her life has continued to evolve and flourish in ways she never would have dreamed possible. She is the author of Gracefully – Looking & Being Your Best at Any Age co-written with Heather Hummel. In her wonderfully inspiring speeches, Valerie shares a lifetime of wisdom on transitioning through life’s stages, finding the “What’s Next” in her own life and the lives of others, and sharing insider secrets and practical advice on how to look and be your best – inside and out – at any age.
Now 72, Valerie has recently relocated to the south Atlantic coast of Florida where she has taken on many new things. She has signed a contract with Wilhelmina Models and Masters Models Silver in Paris and when she is not taking on modeling assignments, she continues to give inspirational speeches for the American Heart Assoc. and other organizations.

Valerie has said a resounding “Yes!” to new ideas, new adventures and new experiences, and the rewards have been extraordinary. Among the new opportunities she has recently taken on are:

  • Masters Models Silver, Paris, France
  • Wilhelmina Models Miami Beach, FL
  • Alexa Models & Talent, Tampa, FL
  • Developing an online video series targeted to mature adults with Blue Marble Media, a national film/video production group
  • Keynote speaker for the American Heart Association
  • Spokesperson - Early Bird Alert
  • International Advisory Board of Directors – Book Bank USA
  • Several guest appearances on the Today Show, Fox Business News and many others
  • Frequent guest interviews on national and international radio programs
  • Motivational speaking engagements
  • Ambassador for New York fashion designer, Nina McLemore
  • Ambassador for You Go Girls Travels
Valerie is with Wilhelmina Models, Miami Beach; Masters Models Silver, Paris, France; Alexa Models & Talent, Tampa, FL

LETTERS TO VALERIE RAMSEY
You are so inspirational. A lot of people are beautiful, but they do not all have the gift of such a warm personality, vision for how to use their gifts and business acumen that you have. You make me want to do great things

"Valerie..you are the light that shines on the path of inspiration!!! AMAZING!!! I am so proud to know you!"

Valerie you project so beautifully, relaxed, approachable and happy!
I just wanted to tell you I saw you on television today and you are absolutely a gorgeous woman. Most women could only hope to age as beautifully as you have. You are an inspiration to all women. I am running out to buy your book tomorrow.

Congrats on your amazing Today show appearance!

You were so calm, so funny and so inspiring. You're amazing on TV.
It totally made my day/week/year to see you! You are such a positive, glowing force, and YES an inspirational role model for the rest of us at all ages

It was nice to have crossed paths with someone as positive as yourself. Your husband, children, family and friends all must be very proud of you.
You were amazing this morning on the Today Show! Judith, Joe and I all marveled at how good you were, especially when you were handling the questions from Kathie Lee—they weren’t easy!

You looked great and sounded even better. Congrats.

-John

I love your ability to overcome obstacles and your shear joy in living. It is obvious in your demeanor.
