Catherine Chadwick is a Life Mastery Consultant certified at the highest level by The Brave Thinking Institute® and is a member of the Institute of Coaching affiliated with McLean Hospital/Harvard University.

As an in person and online clinical and behavioral specialist, Catherine’s first and foremost intention every time is to provide people with insights and tools that they can use to become as healthy and as independent as possible, as she believes that Ralph Waldo Emerson was spot on when he said, “The first wealth is health.”

Curiosity and imagination lend themselves to navigating toward new solutions and adventures in life as greater self-awareness and purpose are developed. Catherine is resolute in that we’re here to live life to the fullest, and with love all around. Of course, and in order to do that, you are best served by living the life that you love.

Transformational coaching, wellness education and management are Catherine’s passions. She loves teaching positive psychology strategies and systems for success that are predictable and repeatable, designed to navigate the gap between what is envisioned, what you would love, and what is currently being experienced and regardless of what arena of your life that you wish to improve. Each one of us is far greater than any circumstance, situation or condition that is presently recognized.

Guiding clients by teaching them some of the basics of neuroscience and metacognition as applied to their body/mind connection – and awareness of universal laws and energy principles that are constantly in play – and why imagination and visualization, as well as taking well thought out actions, are instrumental in the development and realization of everyone’s dreams is paramount for Catherine.

“You’ve got to have a dream, if you don’t have a dream, how you gonna have a dream come true?” South Pacific: “Happy Talk.” And, to illustrate this, please afford yourself a few minutes to listen to Sarah Vaughan and the realization of one of her dreams.

Graduating with a BSN from Alfred University, when it was rated #1 for nursing in New York State, Catherine’s experience is as an RN with IV Specialty, experience in ICU and Home Care, a Certified Legal Nurse Consultant, a practitioner of Applied Positive Psychology and has offered opportunity for years in coaching patients and clients to become their best versions of themselves and to be confident in their evolution, all which have culminated in a certification as a Life Mastery Consultant. At her tender young age, she has over 45 years of experience in the arenas of nursing, law and entertainment writing, acting and production. Being a creative is a natural way of life for her.

On a personal note, Catherine has two children and three grandchildren whom she loves dearly and seeks to spend time with. She also works as an actress, writer, producer, and commercial print model. Being the best role model that she can be, teaching others how they can be the same, and inspiring others to find their voice, too, is top priority. This is all a part of what makes Catherine a unique and successful transformational coach and wellness advisor. She understands relationship, preparation, listening, collaboration, encouragement and establishing goals to achieve the dream. Whether Catherine is with her family, in a patient’s home, on a film set or in a coaching session with you, it’s all about being present, listening and discovering the next best step for a successful outcome.

Catherine loves being a lifelong learner and entrepreneur. She is the founder of You’ve Got Nurse®, The Sunshine Quotient® and The Art of Self Craftsmanship®. CATHERINE CHADWICK CONSULTING LLC is the legal entity umbrella of these endeavors.

My Mission

As an in person and online life coach, my mission is to empower people to raise their sunshine quotient and to unleash and actually realize their dreams through positive psychology strategies and techniques.

What I Believe

I believe that each and every one of us has a dream that is seeking to emerge through us, the life force that is ever seeking to expand. We’re as much a part of nature as the blossom that comes into bloom.

It seems that so many of us were taught that dreaming is frivolous and irresponsible. Dreaming is a large part of visioning and nothing happens without one’s imagination. It connects you to the real you.

Learning to work with the power of this life-giving energy that is within us and around us
truly is an art form. 

It’s not necessarily how most of us were programmed growing up. And, it seems like so many of us appreciate nature though do not view ourselves as being that nature. We’re just as much a part of nature as those flowers blossoming and the planets orbiting on their course—we have trajectories of our own.

We either expand or we decline. Through my own experiences, working with clients, and developing effective observation and listening skills, when we disregard or ignore—say ‘no’ to our expansion, our dreams and visions, our aspirations—we lose our liberties and typically become ill or debilitated in some way. That’s no way to live!

I want to share with you tools that you can use to not only raise your sunshine quotient, one of my favorite things to talk about, but also how you can honor yourself and start building more of the life that you really want.

After all, it’s always all about The Art of Self Craftsmanship ®.
