About Courtney Harkness

I help successful, financially established women navigate complex relationships and major life transitions. Often, this includes helping clients leave high-conflict marriages strategically, with their peace, power, and assets protected.My work in this area is grounded in a simple but often overlooked principle: Divorce is a Business Deal™, not an emotional battleground.Before becoming a Certified Divorce Coach®, I spent over two decades as a corporate executive, consultant, and entrepreneur. I co-founded a private-equity-backed wireless infrastructure company and helped build a mid-eight-figure portfolio of assets. From the outside, my life looked successful and stable.Behind the scenes, I was navigating a high-conflict marriage and facing a decision many accomplished women quietly struggle with: how to leave without losing yourself - or everything you’ve built.What changed everything was approaching my own divorce the same way I approached complex, high-stakes business deals: by separating emotion from strategy, proceeding methodically, and refusing to operate from fear or urgency.That experience became the foundation of my work today.I support clients through a disciplined, three-phase framework:‣ Stabilize – emotional regulation to protect clarity and decision-making‣ Strategize – financial clarity, preparation, and scenario planning before legal action‣ Execute – intentional, well-timed strategy execution (“no sudden moves”)This framework is the core of my Power & Peace™ 90-Day Divorce Program, where clients develop a customized divorce strategy and the confidence to move forward from a position of strength, not reactivity.My role sits at the intersection of emotional regulation, strategic preparation, and high-conflict dynamics. The result: clients who avoid rushed decisions, reduce unnecessary conflict and cost, and exit with their future intact.If you’re a successful woman quietly weighing your options and ready to replace chaos with clarity, let’s connect.Learn more or book a call with me at DivorceStrategy.com
