Healing Inspired
Consulting, LLC
Healing Inspired Consulting is a movement rooted in resilience, transformation, and truth-telling. We create culturally responsive tools, courses, and coaching that empower individuals, couples, and organizations to heal, grow, and lead with authenticity. Our work sits at the intersection of wellness, relationships, and leadership, offering strategies that honor the lived experiences of women of color, particularly Black women, while building bridges for diverse communities to thrive together.
I am Lisa Haynes, founder and principal of Healing Inspired Consulting. My path began in education and leadership, but my purpose was born in my own story—navigating divorce, chronic illness, and the challenges of starting over. Along the way, I became an Integrative Nutrition Coach, a Certified Relationship Coach, and a candidate for Functional Nutrition Coach certification. I believe healing must address the whole person: body, mind, and spirit.
As the author of Wisdom Whispers and Love Quest, and the visionary behind the Resilient Roots and Wellness Works frameworks, I blend my experience in coaching, leadership development, and curriculum design to create spaces and tools that help people rediscover themselves, strengthen their relationships, and lead lives rooted in purpose and well-being.
Our Vision
To restore wellness, resilience, and emotional intelligence through culturally rooted care and community.
The Relationship–Gut/Brain Connection
What I discovered in my work is that many women came to me for health coaching, but it wasn’t just food or exercise that was keeping them stuck. It was relationships. Family tension, toxic workplaces, unresolved heartbreak—these were the hidden weights on their bodies. Stress, silence, and unhealed wounds don’t just affect our emotions—they disrupt our gut, our sleep, our hormones, and our brain chemistry.
I realized that before true health and healing could take place, relationships in all their forms had to be addressed. A woman struggling in her marriage or silenced at work may find it impossible to stick to a health plan—not because she lacks discipline, but because her nervous system and gut health are overwhelmed by relational stress. This is why I focus on the relationship–gut/brain connection: because love, belonging, and safety are as essential to wellness as nutrition and movement.

Why We Exist
Because healing is not just personal—it is generational. Because resilience is not about avoiding pain, but about rising from it with renewed strength. Because too often, the narratives about Black women and communities of color focus on trauma without honoring triumph. At Healing Inspired Consulting, we change that story.
Who We Are
Healing Inspired is more than a brand—it’s a movement.
Founded by author, educator, and integrative wellness coach Lisa Haynes, Healing Inspired bridges emotional and physical wellness through coaching, storytelling, and sisterhood.
We exist for the women who’ve been everything to everyone but themselves. For the relationships wounded by race-based trauma. For those ready to rise with their roots intact.
