Self-care is health care.
Wellbeing redefined.

Life and Wellbeing Coaching for Women

It is possible to stay true to your commitment to make a difference with your work and live in a way that honors your own health and wellbeing.

I’ll show you how.

Sacrificing personal wellbeing is not sustainable!

The paradox of sacrificing personal wellbeing to work harder costs too much! The strain of the COVID-19 pandemic has increased both provider burnout and the number of us who need strong, resilient providers. There’s never been a more critical time for those who care for the health of their communities to show up fully for their patients…and for themselves

Ready to improve your life with better health, relationship satisfaction and job performance?

Meet your Coach

I’m Colleen Harshbarger and my deep passion is empowering women to take charge of their health and joy. I know that when women live authentically and from a place of strength, compassion, and connection, we can collectively shift the cultures in which we are all embedded—to change the world.

As a holistic life and wellbeing coach, I specialize in guiding women healthcare providers to move beyond the limitations of stress and overwhelm—to a place of balance, peace and ease. Partnering with clients to expand their personal wellbeing, we also explore the impact this will have on their patients, and the other people and cultures around them

What to Expect

We’ll begin our collaboration by strengthening your mental fitness, or positive intelligence quotient (PQ). PQ is based on work by Shirzad Chamine, Stanford University lecturer and author of the New York Times bestseller Positive Intelligence.

This work integrates the latest breakthroughs in neuroscience, cognitive and positive psychology, and performance science—to increase your PQ..

Think of it this way: If you’re physically fit, you can climb steep hills without physical stress. If you’re mentally fit, you can handle life’s great challenges without mental stress or negative emotions.

 Testimonials

  • "Colleen is a wonderful coach! I am able to talk about my daily struggles and we develop concrete strategies and goals for me to address and work through them. I came to her with a highly stressful lifestyle where I lived for my work and sacrificed myself in the process. Since my coaching sessions, I have found that my daily life has improved vastly! I am overall happier and more content, achieving better work-life balance."

    — Adellais A, Engineering Doctoral student

  • "Colleen's coaching came to me at a pivotal time in my life. Recently diagnosed with depression, anxiety and ADHD, working in a high-pressure, fast-paced job, and entering my second pregnancy, my feelings about life could simply be summed up as complete overwhelm. Colleen compassionately met me where I was, guided me to reframe my negative self view, and helped me to reconnect with the beauty and power of the present moment. She helped me identify areas of my life where I had high "readiness-to-change." This helped me break down my large goals into manageable action steps. Pretty soon, I was feeling myself once again."

  • "Colleen is an amazing person and mentor! As a new coach, I lacked confidence in myself and, although I desired to create a signature program, I felt paralyzed to push beyond the fear of failure to take that first step. With patience, understanding, and genuine support, Colleen walked beside me as I discovered my inner strengths. She helped me find empowerment in myself to take a chance. Without judgment, she allows my uncertainties and doubts to surface, enabling me to leave feeling at peace and full of excitement about new opportunities ahead."

    — Debby Schiffer, Targeting Wellness, LLC, NBC-HWC

  • "I have to share with you, two nights ago I hit a very stressful situation that was totally made up in my head. From your zoom call, I immediately recognized that it was past stress and started telling myself I am not my thoughts, I am a human having thoughts. It’s hands down the best I’ve ever handled a situation like that and quite literally within minutes I had it under control. I’ve never been able to get past it so quickly before."
