CertifiedI'm a PREKURE certified Health Coach
About me
From my heart, I believe in the possibility of healthy ageing, and recognise the science that says regeneration is possible.
I advocate food as nourishment that's untouched by chemicals and dense in nutrients; that sleep & breathing patterns affect our optimal performance and a healthy expression of emotions can alleviate many of our disease today.
I acknowledge the need for medicated drugs and also their limitations in truly fostering long term good health.
As a woman of 67 years I truly understand the challenges you may be facing. I empathise and can guide you with skills and care on your personal journey.
My values are:
*Authenticity- being myself
*Challenge - always improving myself and others
*Connection - being present and dedicated
*Courage - sharing my thoughts and ideas openly
Embracing a healthy mind, body, and spiritual journey truly shines a light on the essence of sustaining long-term wellness and personal fulfilment.
It's about delving deep to uncover your inner strength, core values, and most importantly, your unique soul purpose. I stand firmly by the power of individual choice in navigating this journey with you.
Here at Heart Focused Health Coaching, my mission is to guide you through your health and wellbeing journey with empathy, understanding, and a touch of accountability.
Let's embark on this path together, towards a life of vibrancy, purpose, and holistic wellness.
Grounded in nature, guided by heart – true wellness starts from within.
Colleen Bryant
I live on a lifestyle block, cultivating an organic orchard/vegetable garden.
I am a highly experienced, confident and likeable individual with exceptional communication skills.
Alongside being a former dairy farmer and CEO, I possess a diverse professional background that includes motivational speaker, mentor, coach and author.
Relationships are important to me. I enjoy developing a healthy and genuine rapport with those I work with.
Life, my way
from a secretary, to dairy farmer, beyond the farm gate to a trade workshop growing an upholstery business. I learned and grew my inner self - in my 20's & 30's at play centre and schools; 40's at university, business ownership and personal development. 50's it was business coaching; now in my 60's it is holistic health coaching for a long Health span.
Family values
mean a lot to me— two kids their life partners, four grandchildren, and one life partner. I honour all of my relations past, present and future.
As I have moved into my wisdom years at 67 years of age in 2025 I relish my bird's eye view of life's various transitions and challenges.
A journey of growth caring for those I love deeply
through viruses, cancers, and final transitions, I returned to the land I had farmed earlier as a mother, daughter and life partner to create Essene Country Lodge.
My mission
As a health and wellbeing coach, I am dedicated to empowering individuals to manage their emotional well-being and rediscover their purpose.
With empathy and care, I guide my clients towards personal resilience.
Why I can help
I'm a qualified health coach and have the professional skills to support my clients.
It is my personal story that guides my ability to be an empathetic, supportive and effective coach.
During my career, I have navigated through some incredibly challenging situations in both my professional life as a business woman. Dealing with crises like the Global Financial Crisis and taking on significant roles that tested my resilience and necessitated creativity. I thrived in those environments, finding excitement and motivation in overcoming obstacles and leading the team through the event by developing their individual skills.
However, facing serious illnesses and prognosis's of loved ones is an entirely different kind of challenge—one that felt insurmountable and deeply personal. It's understandable that despite making all the right decisions, I felt the weight of these situations in a way that impacted me profoundly.
I combine my personal and professional experiences with my training and qualifications to provide effective, personalised and caring coaching for my clients, supporting them to succeed.
