Do I Need A Life Coach?

Send us Fan Mail I was fortunate in my mid 20s to spend time in England, and despite being what I thought was a very similar country to Australia - both historically due to the invasion and culturally - I couldn't have anticipated what lay before me and what left me enriched with experiences and changed perspectives due to our differences. This episode is dedicated to my love of England and t...

Send us Fan Mail Every single one of us have the choice to feel happier on a daily basis. This is not about feeling happier 100% of the time or experiencing a big shift. This is about choosing to make little and seemingly mundane things we do more enjoyable by shifting our perspective or actively finding ways to have more fun every day. We're always chasing a feeling. And growing our awarenes...

Send us Fan Mail Would you believe me if I told you that everything you believe isn't true? Would you fear the thought? Or would you be empowered by the thought? One of the best things about working with a certified coach is that the beliefs you have that guide you through your life are challenged. Every coaching client experiences the Big Shift. It’s the moment when you decide a belief you’v...

Send us Fan Mail A recent experience with loss allowed me to feel immense discomfort that I couldn't run from. Feelings of vulnerability and sadness that made me feel sick to my stomach.

There are many ways to do...

Send us Fan Mail The pain of staying the same has to be greater than the pain of change. Where are you experiencing pain right now? How much focus is that pain taking out of your each and every day?

Send us Fan Mail The stories we tell ourselves have a monumental impact on the results we get in our lives. Whether that's financial, relationships, happyness, or other ways you may personally define success, the story you tell yourself matters. Because the story we tell ourselves affects us on a subconscious and an emotional level which is what we omit to the world, and in turn what we get b...

Send us Fan Mail The concept of emotional maturity has been increasingly relevant in my life, particularly as a mother raising two young children. Balancing the demands of parenting has highlighted moments when my inner child surfaces in response to my children's behaviour. Transitioning to a leadership role in business, the topic of emotional maturity takes a different form. As a leader, pro...

Send us Fan Mail "Whether you think you can, or think you can't, you're right." - Henry Ford.  We don't know what we don't know. And what we think having or achieving will give us at the outset, can ultimately lead to us feeling disappointed. On the flip side, the things in life we're forced to fight for, are the things worth having. But how do we know? Navigatin...

Send us Fan Mail We all experience fight or flight, some more dramatically than others depending on our working environment, our upbringing, and our existing patterns of behaviour we have programmed from experience to survive. Our physiological response comes from our interpretation of the environment around us, especially through our eyesight. Being able to regulate that interpretation, to regula...

Send us Fan Mail The impact coaching is so significantly larger than just one person. Often, the presenting problems a client brings to a coach when wanting to work with them is the tip of the iceberg.  Coaching not only helps with the presenting problem (first and foremost), but is a holistically uplifting experience for somebody to experience. When that person experiences coaching, many others a...

Send us Fan Mail “I want what they've got.” “Why haven't I got what I want yet?” .. and so it goes, right?! We've all been there. It takes time to develop an 'attitude of gratitude' when you've been living your life comparing yourself to others. Instead of repeating that old story, and keeping on doing that thing, it takes practice to remind yourself of all the things...

Send us Fan Mail I take you through my sales process to give you an understanding of how I used to sell, and compare it with how I choose to sell now.

Send us Fan Mail How do people perceive you? Do people see what you want them to see?

It's also a great skill to have if you’re looking to manipulate the way others perce...

Send us Fan Mail Remember when you started? The passion, the fire, the drive? The discussion, so often when coaching clients is that it's disappeared. Instead, it feels hard and frustrating and the results aren't coming. But what if... actually... they are? Carrying successful energy into the work you're doing to achieve your goal matters. And if your energy is heavy and dejected an...

Send us Fan Mail What makes you feel alive, even if you know it bad for you and maybe shortening your lifespan? Sometimes things that are bad for our physical health are the best things for our spiritual health. There's no rhyme or reason, and I don't believe there's any use in depriving yourself or hiding it from yourself. If you're the sort of person that can work in extremes...

Send us Fan Mail Taking responsibility sucks! But ultimately, when we take responsibility we are able to get what it is we want because we control the story we tell ourselves about everything going on around us.
