Our Member Spotlight is on Carolyn Pitts, ACE-CHC, ACE-BCS, PBC, HTP-A
Meet our Member Carolyn!
With over 25 years as an ACE-certified Health Coach, Carolyn came to Healing Touch as a powerful complement to her work in sustainable lifestyle change and self-care. What began as a tool for her own healing gradually became a deeper path—one rooted in presence, intuition, and listening to the wisdom of the body. In this grounded and reflective conversation, Carolyn shares insights that are especially meaningful for practitioners navigating growth, self-trust, and transition.
Carolyn’s journey is a beautiful reminder that healing is not about forcing change, but about creating the conditions for awareness, readiness, and compassion to unfold.
In this interview, you’ll learn:
• How Healing Touch became an essential part of Carolyn’s own self-healing journey and professional evolution
• What helped her move from “doing it right” to trusting her intuition and energetic awareness
• Insights from her book Eight Intentions for Self-Healing, including the importance of readiness and self-awareness in the healing process
• How Healing Touch, health coaching, and behavior change work together to support lasting, sustainable transformation
• Why unmet needs and illness can offer meaningful information on the healing path
• What working with animals through Healing Touch has taught her about presence, sensitivity, and energy
• How coherence, collective intention, and community—through HeartMath and Power of Eight healing circles—have shaped her practice
• Encouragement for practitioners who may be feeling uncertain, disconnected, or in transition
A special highlight from this interview:
Carolyn also teaches a Trauma Tapping technique from the Peaceful Heart Network—a simple, practical tool you can use for self-regulation, nervous system support, and gentle client care. This technique is especially helpful during times of stress, overwhelm, or transition and is easy to integrate into both personal self-care and professional practice.
This interview offers reassurance, practical tools, and gentle wisdom for wherever you are on your Healing Touch journey.
