My Mission

As a professional mediator, coach, and organizational change management expert, I am committed to helping individuals and organizations navigate meaningful, positive transitions. With an MBA and extensive experience across Fortune 500 companies and the nonprofit sector, I offer a unique blend of corporate insight and community-centered care. I’ve led complex projects, supported coworkers in resolving deep-rooted conflicts, guided families through difficult transitions, and helped many to find a better path through restorative justice. My approach is grounded in compassion, peace, and a dedication to fostering understanding.

With a natural ability to bring people together, I understand both the challenges and the rewards of organizational change. I’m here to guide you through transitions with a focus on harmony, engagement, and growth.

I also lead healing circles—safe, inclusive spaces that promote peace and constructive dialogue. These circles offer a supportive environment for open communication, helping people reconnect, heal, and find common ground, especially during times of change.

Together, let’s create a path forward that ensures unity, healing, and a smooth transition toward lasting success.

“Barbara was an answer to prayer! Her vast experience, spiritual intuitiveness and solid organizational strengths gave me useful tools that worked for me and gave me the confidence I needed to begin making changes. She helped me recognize the areas which needed improvement and provided the practical steps, and additional options tailored to fit my personality. ”

Ardith Duke

“Barbara Bonner partners with clients to identify goals, uncover life-changing approaches, and employ actions for personal and professional excellence. She has a gentile and positive manner that invites honesty, openness, and willingness to learn and grow. I’m forever grateful for her thoughtful and engaging coaching that led me to embrace the will and skill to plan and orchestrate a memorial for my hero-brother when I was unable to see a way to do so. Barb’s wisdom and spiritual presence helped me and helps others realize and activate their fullest potential.”
