Barbara Wainwright, CMC

Certified Life and Business Coach

Barbara Wainwright has dedicated her life to helping others. Barbara’s life experiences have led her on a path of self-discovery and higher learning in her personal quest to make the world a better place for her family, her friends and her clients.

Barbara’s business experience mirrors that of the American dream, when as a single mother struggling to support her two young children she founded J.F. Positive Systems, Inc., a software development company which she ran for twenty-two years. There Barbara designed and developed software programs for companies’ like Epson, Hutchinson Australia, Citibank, Herbalife and many others. Yet despite the success of her lucrative business, Barbara felt something missing. With a deepening desire to give back, Barbara began her quest by sharing her knowledge and experience by helping other single mothers to succeed. Goal setting, persistence, maintaining a positive attitude, self-motivation, expanding ones paradigm and remaining accountable to ones dreams were the key ingredients to her success and became the cornerstone in her message.

In 1987, Barbara co-authored A Pocketbook of Affirmations - Powerful positive statements for a healthy, successful and happy life. The purpose of her book was to help others take their lives to a higher level of success and fulfillment through the use of affirmations, visualizations, treasure mapping and goal setting. Before long, readers began contacting Barbara asking for more. Since that time, Barbara has been coaching and advising individuals as they seek new meaning and purpose their lives.

Barbara’s continued pursuit of knowledge has led her to the study of enhanced communications, spiritual counseling, self-hypnosis as a motivational tool, Neuro Lingustic programming, Socratic Questioning for education and training and Holistic Healing. Barbara is currently a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Sedona where she will soon complete her doctorate degree in Holistic Life Coaching.

God has gifted Barbara with the keen ability to speak directly to the core essence of human hearts. My life has changed dramatically since my encounters with Barbara. My income has doubled and my goals are blooming into reality. Barbara enabled me in the most gentle, loving, way to see how I was limiting God's plan to bless my life. She helped me to see beyond my own limitations and to look to God as my source of abundance. She encouraged me to search within to draw out unspoken desires and dreams that had been lying dormant for years. Barbara believed in me when I couldn’t believe in myself. She is consistently available with kind and motivating words of encouragement. And her enthusiasm and appreciation for life is absolutely contagious. I now feel empowered me to allow myself permission to live the life that God has always intended for me. Barbara’s inspiration and support have truly been a cherished gift in my life."
