Learn how to shift your response to stress in the moment so you can
what is your unmanaged stress costing you?
You know you're meant for more than managing a mountain of stress and to-do's every day. You likely feel called to reach higher, live a more fulfilling life, and make a greater difference with your life and work. But you're also...exhausted and tired of not reaching your potential. Isn't it time to change that?
Go from burnING OUT to ENERGIZED WELLBEING AND EASE
Yes, stress is challenging us like never before BUT is burnout really inevitable? This evidence-based method will empower you to intelligently manage your energy and focus throughout your day to move you forward - and allow you to care for who and what matters most with balance, renewal and ease.
Tap into your Heart's intuitive intelligence
Getting in sync aligns your heart, mind and emotions, quiets the noise, and opens access to your best thinking and your heart’s intuitive intelligence to guide you forward. From this more connected state you can approach yourself, others, and situations with greater compassion, clarity, creativity and confidence.
Improve performance & connection of others
Resilient, connected teams perform much better. By giving your staff the skills to effectively self-manage through stress, they bring more of their best to the day, grow through challenge and uncertainty, and can achieve even bigger goals together!
Deepen Family Connection & Communication
By being present to the good each day and with greater capacity for joy, home is more renewing. But hey, life is stressful too! Heartmath tools can help you raise and guide happy, healthy, and resilient children - while strengthening your relationships and values - even when things are stressful.
Getting in sync Transforms stress
Transforming stress and anxiety takes the power of the heart
Transforming stress and anxiety isn’t done through thinking; it’s done through shifting feelings and attitudes. Emotions can move faster than thoughts, and they can bias perceptions and thoughts. As you learn to get in sync and train your nervous system, shifting emotions in the moment to a state of ease becomes easier, As you practice heart coherence, your mind clears and your emotions and attitude lift. And you're able to access your heart’s perspective and guidance—especially when you need it most. Everyone has this coherent heart intelligence within them waiting to be unlocked.
But too often, people with stress and anxiety overload believe life will never change. Once they discover how to shift their heart rhythms to create inner calm and ease, new possibilities emerge, and life becomes hopeful.
Learning to connect with your heart power and intelligence when you feel emotional turmoil, stress, and anxiety is a small energy investment with big energy savings. It creates emotional regeneration and fills your energy reserves with the high-quality emotional energy you need to power through your day, to change what you thought you couldn’t or find ease with what you can’t yet change.
Bonnie Hartley- Coach & Trainer
Meet Bonnie
In 2002 I certified as a Personal and Professional Mastery and Organizational Learning coach through the ICF accredited Newfield Network - in partnership with George Mason University which started my coaching career. In 2007 I was inspired to create In Sync Success - integrating Heartmath Institute's scientifically validated and globally acclaimed self-regulation tools and resilience-building practices that have helped individuals, schools, hospitals and companies become more balanced, aware and high functioning.
While working with a client and his team in 2008, the economy crashed all around us and they agreed to use the Heartmath tools to better manage stress and support leadership. Not only did they meet their revenue goal, they exceeded it. I share Bruce's testimonial below. But, while it became clear that improving our resilience and capacity for connection and creativity to make crucial pivots impacts financial results, few businesses had budgets for coaching in 2009 and so, I used my tools to pivot myself and through a series of synchronities landed at Apple for two years. I was inspired to reboot In Sync Success in 2015 by becoming one of Heartmath's first coaches to deliver their robust resiliency and heart intelligence programs.
Heart intelligence is a term Heartmath uses to describe our heart's intuitive guidance which can be difficult to catch - especially when we're stressed, but much easier to access when our mind and nervous system are still. It's become a core skill my clients learn, especially for navigating these times of increased stress and uncertainty with greater compassion, clarity, confidence and ease.
What some of Bonnie's Clients say
Access your heart's intelligence for your own best answers and a path forward
Working with Bonnie made a massive difference to me and my business. There’s a level of trust and safety and comfort with Bonnie that helped me identify a hidden barrier between me and success and then come up with the best solution possible to go beyond it! I’ve benefitted both personally and financially from Bonnie's work.

While I have light-heartedly referred to Bonnie as my backbone coach, it's in all sincerity.
Bonnie helped me to be clear about my personal boundaries, perhaps previously ignored, to understand my weaknesses and frustrations, and to give myself permission to act confidently towards the achievement of my goals. She encouraged and prompted, enabling me to explore, to identify barriers, and ultimately, to decide what was the best course of action, particularly as it pertained to a transition regarding my work with the Wine Trail.
Bonnie provided a lens for understanding and a road-map for self-motivation in the moments that I needed it most. I would not hesitate to recommend her for anyone with the desire to understand themselves better or to overcome challenges, whether personal or professional.

Stop living at the mercy of stress and overwhelm
To feel empowered in my life is a beautiful place to be. My goal in working with Bonnie was to minimize my anxiety and balance my emotions so that I could be a better mother, wife, boss, and friend. While I was able to achieve my goals, more notably, Bonnie has guided me to develop confidence in choice and create a deep joy in myself that radiates to the people around me. I feel at choice to create what I want out of each experience. What a blessing this experience has been…everyone needs a Bonnie!

Go from stressed to connecting for more effective leadership
Managers silo'd for years can now hear one another, listen to new ideas, be open to new solutions and explore the implementation of them while we eliminate the energy drains that use to interfere. We now refocus in a few seconds; change our emotional response to any situation - in the moment; and our personal coherence puts us into collective alignment with each other and our priorities, which is improving our decision making and communication.

Empower your staff and help kids build resilience to meet today's challenges and uncertainty with compassion, confidence and ease
Bonnie not only helped our staff to identify stressors and emotions in the moment and how to pivot in a more positive manner, she empowered them to use Heartmath skills with the children in our care to reduce the stress, boost resiliency and help them express compassion, kindness and care, toward themselves and others. Our staff and the kids connect better. And, by empowering the kids with skills and confidence to more effectively handle their stress in the moment, we eliminated behavioral issues and conflict. We're truly grateful for how positively impactful this has been and we will mentor new staff and children in these skills.

Identify aligned actions that can lead to immediate results
Bonnie is a highly skilled personal, professional and organization coach. I have observed her in action on several occasions, and find that she has an uncanny ability to help her clients identify actions, emotions and circumstances that block intended directions.
I called Bonnie to help me with a particularly challenging strategic business issue which resulted in identifying several action steps that I was able to implement, and that yielded immediate and positive results in my business.

Turn stress and worry into clarity, connection and aligned goals
I can focus now on the things that need my attention and I no longer stay up at night worrying about the future of my business. The VIP day was most important for my business partner and I. That day we learned about each other and how to work better together to achieve success. I am truly blessed to have met and worked with Bonnie Hartley.

Be guided through generative and Appreciative Questions that create clarity and get you unstuck
Bonnie guided owners of the 21 member wineries of Chautauqua-Lake Erie Wine Trail through a strategic session which, despite limitations on available time, was very successful in clarifying the mission of the organization and clear, achievable next steps.
I have found myself on multiple occasions referring to this work, whether to bolster tactical decisions to be made by the Wine Trail or to reflect on the role of the Trail in the economic development of tourism in the region."
