Courtney Kreel Blankenship

Music Business Professor and Personal Coach

Courtney helps women in the arts and academia overcome lack of self-confidence, feelings of disempowerment and loss of connections after divorce/other life transitions so that they can achieve career goals, rebuild their community of support and discover their most peaceful, personal lives. She understands what it’s like to be a single mom of two children, uncertain of the future, lose people and relationships to illness and addiction, yet establish a career in academia by overcoming limiting mindsets and anxiety, because she’s lived it. Through her years of work with healthcare professionals and personal development, she’s moved forward to create her own path towards wellness. Her life isn’t perfect, but her strategies make maintaining peace much easier and she would love to share them with you. Courtney was named a Top Ten Music Professor in College Magazine and you can connect with her at www.courtneycharmony.com
