With an open heart, Colleen passionately guides others in their journey to feel their best and live a harmonious, balanced life. Her approach embraces the whole person and believes all our spaces (mind, body, soul, and dwelling spaces) are beautifully intertwined. How did she uncover her passion?Before aligning with her path and purpose in wellness and coaching, Colleen earned her degrees in business and finance. For 16 years, she worked as a management consultant in the United States and Europe, living and embracing London as home for five years. While abroad Colleen loved traveling through Europe enjoying each adventure. They allowed her to explore different cultures and the uniqueness of each country, and study at INSEAD in Fontainebleau, France. Her curiosity and sense of adventure opened wide!Colleen left her corporate profession to raise her son and create and build Be Brave and Shave a nonprofit charity, where she helped raise over $1.5 million in two and a half years to endow the first pediatric oncology chair at Children's National Hospital. This is one of Colleen's most cherished accomplishments, and created a deep awareness and understanding for how compassion and love create lasting bonds.She built her first business, Colleen Avis Interiors, after returning to school to study interior design. While helping clients create beautiful home interior spaces, she felt the deep connection between the physical spaces and energetic spaces we live in and collectively share. This sparked a deep passion and desire to support others find their greatest joys and love for all their spaces. This took Colleen, nearly a decade ago, to Chopra. It was there she grew and transformed personally (a forever journey she embraces), and learned to guide others in gaining clarity and focus about their lives, expanding their creativity, and discovering solutions to life's challenges. Colleen also completed her teacher training with Yoga Medicine during that time.Curiosity, adventure, love, compassion, collective energy, and excitement for learning create the unwavering knowing that it is our divine right to be happy, and with subtle shifts we can all create impactful and sustainable transformation. Working with Colleen starts with her meeting you where you are, and getting curious about what you uniquely need. Ready? www.subtle-shifts.com.
