Welcome to High Road to Healing
You always have a choice. Consciousness is the high road. Free will is your superpower.
High Road to Healing teaches you how to choose consciousness over fear—in real time, through real life.
Topics I cover:
Consciousness work: Byron Katie’s inquiry, David Hawkins’ Map of Consciousness, and how to question the fearful beliefs running your life
Trauma to transformation: Post-traumatic growth, surrender, and choosing differently when life breaks you open.
Practical spiritual tools: Surrender, acceptance, forgiveness and how emotions affect our vibrational frequency.
Money mindset: How subconscious beliefs sabotage abundance and what to do about it.
Aging consciously: Aging as a spiritual practice, and what your soul is asking of you.
Political and collective trauma: How to stay grounded and choose love when the world feels on fire.
Post types:
Personal stories from my journey through three major traumas (2005-2025)
Step-by-step consciousness practices you can use today
Research-backed techniques (neuroscience, psychology, spiritual wisdom)
Behind-the-scenes memoir writing and what I’m learning
Current events through the lens of consciousness and choice
What this does for you: You’ll learn to recognize the moment between what happens and how you respond—where your power lives. You’ll stop believing every fearful thought, neutralize your inner critic, and transform survival mode into awakening.
Who I Am
I’m Sherold Barr—master life coach, consciousness teacher, and entrepreneur with 25 years of building successful businesses and helping people (especially women) transform their lives.
Why I’m qualified to teach this:
16 years coaching clients on consciousness, money blocks, and life transformation
Student of: David Hawkins’ Map of Consciousness, Jungian psychology, Byron Katie (700 hours of training in The Institute for The Work.
Lived experience: Survived three major traumas (brother’s murder in 2005, son’s life-threatening illness, divorce, near-fatal car accident with six surgeries and near-death experience in 2017)
The pivotal moment: During my 2017 near-death experience after a car accident in Baja, Mexico, a voice asked: “You get to choose how you go through this experience. What will you choose?”
I chose consciousness. I chose love. That choice changed everything—and taught me that we always have this choice. Free will is our superpower.
I live in Portland, Oregon, with my husband John (ER physician, 30 years), and our Australian Labradoodle, Teddy. I am a dog nut and in fact, one of my friends was a reference for a breeder of our first Australian Labradoodle, Lilly. My friend told the breeder,
“We all want to come back as Sherold’s dog in the next lifetime.”
I am an avid gardener, we love hiking and camping in our Airstream. I’m thrilled to have a three-year-old grandson who lives in Portland. I’ve spent five years learning to write truth on the page. I also host the High Road to Healing podcast, and hope to self-publish my memoir in 2027.

Sherold
