Reimagine and feel what a balanced caregiving role would be like.
The Caregivers Connection Coaching & Support Group is designed to reimagine and experience caregiving and leadership from a place of vitality, balance, and joy.
Whether you care for and guide our children and youth as a parent, educator, or mentor, or you work with adults as a nurse, CNA, HHA, therapist, care partner, or other role, you are a caregiver AND a leader. You have great influence on the people you work with and care for. Not only do we as caregivers and educators, need to know the physical and intellectual skills to provide for others, but it is vital the we learn and practice high-level emotional, social, and spiritual well-being concepts and practices also, beginning with ourselves.
As we learn these new practices, it ensures that we continue to influence others with honor, knowing how to really see, hear, and value them by learning to do this with ourselves. What research has shown time and time again, is that the more we can know, love, trust and be our whole, well selves and feel great about it, no matter where we are in our self-care process, the better our caregiving and educator experiences will be for everyone.
It's time that YOU create and receive the care, support, and well-being that YOU want and need at another level.
It's time to move away from feeling too exhausted to do something for yourself.
You are important. You have a valued role to play in this world.
It's time to get clear about what you really want to be and do for yourself to up your well-being.
Would you like to be a part of a group that has been created as an affordable option to practice breaking through the lack of self-care patterns and build yourself as a high-level self-care connoisseur? We would love for you to join us!
Most of us have been taught that focusing on others the way we do (and we are good at it) is the way to actually feel like we are contributing and making a difference. We have gotten a lot of "kudos" for helping others. But a lack of self-focus never works. We just feel more and more tired and unappreciated.
The words Self-Care and Wellness have been thrown around for over two decades by correlating them with the promotions of products that we "should-take" or practices we "should-do" such as take 10,000 steps/day to be healthy. Although the products and practices may be wonderful in and of themselves, this old way of doing self-care by having hundreds of people or marketing ads telling you what is good for you, which often contradict each other, can be very confusing and ineffective. Many of us don't know what to believe, do, or think when it comes to enhancing our health and well-being.
But there is a new, time-tested way to "do" self-care....a way that comes from your heart-mind-brain connection...a way that comes from within yourself, so you know what to think and do.
This new way of self-care has been developed by Meg Hanshaw PhD, an applied researcher, educator, and professional credentialed trauma-informed, Health and Wellness Coach. From her own lack of self-care and burn-outs resulting in poor health and well-being, she developed a coaching methodology that she time-tested with herself and hundreds of educators, students, and athletes over 30 years. In her research, she found that a lack of self-care or even physical and mental health challenges, all stem from disempowering and dysfunctional self-love and relationships patterns that were modeled and experienced growing up.
Meg named this coaching methodology, Empowerment Coaching & Learning because it resulted in the educators and their students to become more healthy and empowered as their learning was greatly enhanced. But as she has continued to guide and coach educators in this methodology, she has begun to also call it Quantum Connection Coaching and Quantum Connection Self-Coaching because it uses the principles and theories of Quantum Mechanics or "the Law of Attraction" as part of its fundamental well-being principles. It gives individuals the ability to build their self-care, through enhancing their self-love, self-worth, and self-connection, by learning to connect with and listen to their Higher Selves, as well as understanding how to use the Quantum Field of all possibilities.
Because this coaching methodology enhances self-connection and personal well-being, it also begins to enhance positive and connected connection and communication with others, which in turn, positively influences well-being.
You become a connected and empowered caregiver no matter what is going on inside of you and around you.
In our group sessions, you will begin to learn the Quantum Connection Coaching Methodology. You will begin to learn the fundamentals of what developmental trauma is and how to recognize it in your body. You will begin to learn how to release it and how to integrate new, healthy, and empowering patterns into your body and mind so you don't feel so upset and triggered over and over again at yourself or the people you work with (which is one of the main causes of exhaustion and burnout).
This entails understanding how our early development as children contributes to our lack of self-care and why it seems so hard to give ourselves what we truly need to feel energized, happy and fulfilled, and to experience total well-being.
Every human being has been passed down developmental trauma from their family members and/or from historical events that effected a certain generation or segment of the population (i.e. holocaust, slavery, women's rights). These forms of historical trauma are still happening today and it is important that we have a way to deal with the uncertainty that seems to be happening all around us in our current times.
Quantum Coaching gives you the skills to be able to move through these disempowering trauma patterns and emotional wounds (emotional triggers) that you have been unintentionally given, and help prevent further trauma from negatively affecting you. It helps you build a life of connected leadership and caring that is in service to yourself first, which catapults high levels of healthy and empowered support for others.
The Quantum Connection Coaching Methodology is not therapy. It is based in the art and science of personal, professional Life and Wellness Coaching. This means that participants will be responsible for learning or not learning these coaching and well-being practices to support themselves. Although there is some overlap between coaching and therapy when it comes to feelings our emotions, coaching distinguishes that every person is already unique, brilliant and whole, no matter what they are feeling. They don't need "fixed" or they don't "need to change". They just get to choose to learn and practice the principles and science about "why" they may feel the way they do and "how" to shift into something that feels so much better to them. This takes practicing emotional and social intelligence skills with the guidance of our higher selves. and a coach to facilitate the questions that support the individual in making their own highest choices and decisions.
Caregivers and educators who do well with coaching are ready to step out of victimization and fear, and into self-responsibility and love. It is the responsibility of the individual to decide what they will and will not feel, believe and do.
As you become a Quantum Coach for yourself, you will learn that what you need will always be provided in perfect timing, and with this mental attitude of trust and abundance, things that are more preferred begin to unfold more and more.
Coaching is educational and can create deep personal transformation just by learning to accept and validate exactly where you are.
Anyone can learn and use the Quantum Connection Coaching methodology with themselves and others.
It just takes a desire for personal transformation and a mindset of not wanting to blame others for your feelings and outcomes...in other words, if you are ready to take total responsibility for your life, and love yourself, this is the place to begin to learn how.
Take back control of what you want to create and experience in your life!
Furthermore, the coaching methodology is based on a framework and evidence-based principles of well-being that Dr. Hanshaw developed, which come together to form a SYSTEM of personal and community change called the Empowerment Education® System of W.E.L.L.-Being (see www.empowermenteducation.coach for more info).
No matter if our group is composed of 10 or 100 individuals, you will discover information and practices that have the potential to transform your burnout or your lack of valuing your own self-care, to a life of more balance, joy, energy and fulfillment (with more connected and fulfilling relationships!)
As you commit to your personal transformation, and you want continued support, you can become a part of our Caregivers Connection Community Group and take part in other programs to build your self-coaching and communication skills.
With the long history of education experience, research, and trauma-based professional coaching, Dr. Meg Hanshaw is excited to hold the space for our group of caregivers and educators! She will share these self-coaching practices that build emotional intelligence with you in the flow of our connections.
In addition, Karen Campbell, with her 30 years of caregiving, is a beautiful example of in-real-time vulnerability and courage as she openly shares what she is breaking through as a true leader of personal transformation. She has experienced and navigated through extreme challenges with her clients and is learning what she needs to take aligned action towards her highest levels of self-love and self-care as she continues to lead and serve.
No one can tell you how to DO your well-being journey. You must learn what your body, mind, and spirit need and go from there! But we are here to see, hear, and value you and provide a way to enhance your self-care, self-love, and self-worth. We all need that in these days and times!
We both look forward to meeting you!

After quitting her college basketball team, Meg was driven to find out why she had shifted from passion, joy, and vitality, to burnout, fear, and sickness. She was determined to discover what made young people (herself included) have the best chance of reaching their full potential in life.
She spent thirty years researching, piloting and benchmarking positive youth development and well-being practices and programs with her basketball players and physical education and health students. She earned a doctorate in education specializing in developing new models, practices, and curriculum for educators that empower their students.
She then became a credentialed, trauma-informed transformational Life, Wellness and Health Coach while she carried out her duties as a Wellness Director at a non-profit health education and residency program for medical personnel.
In 2010, she founded a a nonprofit, ibmee.org, (I Be Me) to train and coach educators who work in our school systems to break through their epidemics of burn-out, depression, and toxic stress without quitting their jobs. Her first ever program trains educators to become certified Empowerment Coaches in the classroom.
She has now been training and coaching educators, parents, couples, and other caregivers for over 15 years using her research-based, trauma-informed, transformational program called the
Empowerment Education® System of W.E.L.L.-Being.
She specializes in building social-emotional intelligence and physical health and well-being.
She is now offering her new-paradigm coaching & support program for Caregivers who work with adults.
Karen has faced life's adversities with unwavering resilience and compassion. From a young age, Karen experienced loss and illness, with the early loss of her beloved dog and kittens, and family members falling ill. These early experiences shaped her into a compassionate caregiver and a strong pillar for her family.
During her married years, she became the sole provider after her ex-husband suffered a catastrophic traumatic brain injury followed by a heart attack. Her caregiving role expanded as she supported her mother through her father's palliative care journey and subsequent medical challenges, including brain tumor removal and hip replacement.
Karen's dedication extends to her daughter, who faced a traumatic brain injury in her developmental years, leading to addiction issues due to years of medical neglect. She has worked on secured floors with individuals dealing with dementia and traumatic brain injuries, provided behavioral support, assisted a quadriplegic, and supported elders with daily living activities. Now she is working with adults with behavioral issues, such as zedx syndrome.
Although, life brought Karen situations that catapulted her into being a highly skilled caregiver, she didn't have the awareness of how to keep herself from burning out. So after her physical, mental, and emotional health fizzled, she has since then, been bringing herself back as her own self-care connoisseur. She is passionate about inspiring caregivers to put themselves first and have fun. Karen's life, thus far, is a testament to her strength, empathy, and commitment to supporting other.
