5 Stages of Grief

Your relationship has died, at least for now, and grieving is a process, so I’ll be virtually holding your hand as you move in and out of each stage. Helping you discover who your ex truly is...good for you or not...and guiding you through coping with life without your lover.

Boundaries

You teach people how to treat you, whether you're aware of it or not. You'll learn if you have been unconsciously sabotaging your relationships, and how to enforce healthy boundaries, so you can get your needs met, and have healthier relationships.

Raised Self-Esteem

Take action to truly love yourself and raise your self-esteem, so you can change your pattern and make better choices. Like attracts like, as you get healthier you'll be attracted to a healthier person...and healthier people will be very attracted to you.

Unpacked Baggage

To have a good relationship, you need to know everything you do to contribute, whether good, bad, or ugly. You'll create your own personalized red flags to raise your standards, and attract the love you deserve.

Effective Communication

How well do you express your thoughts and feelings? Learn how your delivery makes all the difference and create deeper emotional intimacy.

Smart Goals

Change your hopes and dreams into actionable goals to stop putting off and putting up with unfinished projects and tasks and create the life you truly desire.

About Donna Barnes

This Action Plan is unlike anything else you’ve seen before because I’m uniquely different. I myself have struggled with abandonment issues and have endured more than my share of loss and heartbreak, even abuse. But I've also lived a very charmed and exciting life, filled with love. I am a New York University Certified Life & Love Coach, however, I can promise you there has been no better teacher than my personal experiences.

You see, I suddenly lost my Mom as a teenager, when we'd had a difficult, complicated relationship. So I escaped to New York City with a modeling agency, in the 80s, when Manhattan was a pretty wild place. I studied acting, which is human behavior, and moved to Los Angeles in the 90s. Hollywood was certainly eye-opening. "Me Too" was accepted as the casting couch back then. Just about every starlet, male and female, has their own horror story, I have several. 

I was primarily selfish and broke a lot of hearts, until I had my heart ripped out at age 30, before 'ghosting' was even a term and there was no internet to search for answers.

I returned to New York, and got so good at dating that I was asked to be in one of the very first reality shows, "The Real Sex & The City", that lead to my first magazine advice column as I co-hosted 205 episodes of "Naked New York", a talk show about sex & relationships. I went to NYU, starting coaching others, wrote my book, and became the relationship expert for Good Morning America.

What makes me better suited to help you through this breakup is the multiple devastating breakups I caused and suffered through first-hand over those three decades — knowledge was the only thing that made me feel better, so each and every painful experience further enriched my ability to help you.

I built this Masterclass utilizing what I wish I could tell my younger self. I’ve included the things I've learned from the 100’s of people I have now coached; and what I've observed from my friends, former colleagues, celebrities, and powerful mentors too. My brain has always grabbed onto tidbits of facts and knowledge, and I’m so proud of how I’ve now compiled it all into a proven Action Plan, to help you recover from your breakup, and become the best you possible.

So I escaped to New York City with a modeling agency, in the 80s, when Manhattan was a pretty wild place. I studied acting, which is human behavior, and moved to Los Angeles for 6 years in the 90's. Hollywood was certainly eye-opening. They used to call it the casting couch. I fully understand why it’s now called the "Me Too" movement, because just about every starlet has their own horror story. I certainly have more than a few of my own.

I have good news! I’ve finished the mindfulness module and I found it very helpful... you explained in such a way that was so much easier for me to implement... And since I’m feeling better I have decided to review the previous steps, so I can understand them better without the panicking feeling!

"No one should feel alone or lost as I initially did during my breakup. Donna was the one who enabled me to feel that I could make it through, and I did, with all of her spot on advice."

"I realize I was able to achieve more with you in only 13 hours than I was able to achieve with all the other coaches I had worked with in 40+ combined hours of coaching."

"I found Donna's insight, feedback, and advice to be spot-on. I have since healed and I am now ready to date again, something I never thought possible several months earlier."

"Donna clearly possesses both experience, and the gift of  insight, which enables her to support her clients through painful breakups and help shift their trajectory towards a clearer and more fulfilling path."

"Although my experience with a psychiatrist and other counselor were helpful, neither of them were able to show me which options truly existed, and how to make the right decisions. Donna always had the right advice, and as we all know, during a breakup we sometimes can't seem to keep it together."

If you need an unbiased, sympathetic ear to give you insight into what went wrong and help you process what you’re feeling, I’m here for you! I genuinely understand how difficult it is to be pining for someone, feeling abandoned or betrayed, and desperately wanting your ex back.

If you’re hurting or simply confused about what to do or think, call me, I’ll help you feel better. I’m easy to talk to and have years of experience to draw from to give you answers to deal with your issues. I've been there at least a dozen times myself in my 50+ years, so I truly understand how abandoned you feel; how devastating the future now seems, and how hard it is to eat or sleep, to get through each day.

I offer an ASAP Zoom or Phone call to share your story with me and get answers within 24 hours.
