Were you born and raised in Boston? If not, what brought you here?
Originally born in Moscow, Russia, I moved to the suburbs of Boston when I was 5 years old with my mom and grandmother who instilled in me the values of hard work and being able to pivot in any situation. I graduated from Massachusetts College of Pharmacy on Longwood Ave and worked as a community pharmacist in Boston for over a decade.
Tell us more about your job or company and what led you to your career?
I am Dr. Elizabeth Levitin — pharmacist turned certified life coach and owner of my company Joyful Living by Elizabeth. As a pharmacist, I helped thousands of people improve their health for over a decade. Today I help stressed-out, exhausted women fall in love with their life, set boundaries, and prioritize themselves in under 6 months using my proven step-by-step program. After overcoming my own health struggles and learning how to put myself first, I felt compelled to help others on a deeper level by transitioning to life coaching. I have so much fun with my clients teaching them how to harness their power to help themselves, reduce stress, and inspire success in their careers, relationships, and overall well-being.
What would your clients say about you and your company?
“If I could look back to that same person who was struggling, I would say Elizabeth has the patience, skill, and guidance to help you through your worst situations. I highly recommend her.” – Jim V.
“Elizabeth has helped me uncover truths, strengths, weaknesses, and BS I tell myself with an efficiency that borders on superhuman. She dissects information and helps me reframe it into something actionable and motivational. She’s professional, kind, personable, adaptive, and doesn’t shy away from confrontation — critical for meaningful, lasting change.” – Nate G.
“I originally wanted a coach to help me find a job, but I got so much more. She helped me rework my thought process, reduce anxiety, and focus on facts. With her guidance, I transitioned into my dream job and thrived in my writing career.” – Cassidy C.

What is your secret weapon? An app, a tool, an organization method, anything?!
My secret weapon is my absolute belief in what my clients are capable of. I guide them to their solutions while helping them grow their own self-belief. I tailor every session, staying flexible and tapping into my strong intuition.
What is your most recent WIN? How are you slaying it in your career or business?
My business has grown over tenfold in the last year. I surpassed my reach goals and continue to grow strong. HOW? Through fierce commitment and belief in my clients. They’ve achieved massive results in careers, relationships, and self-advocacy.
What advice would you give to your younger self?
It is your RIGHT to take up space in the world. Raise your standards. Stop explaining yourself. Saying NO is a perfectly acceptable answer.
How do you enjoy your free time?
I love hiking in the White Mountains of New Hampshire with my love — working through climbing all 48 four-thousand-footers. Kicking butt at bowling with our Boston bowling league. Snuggling with my sweet dog and watching Netflix.
What is something that not many people know about you?
I am Russian and speak it fluently. I don’t have an accent because I immigrated to Boston when I was 5 years old.
