Positive Psychology Coaching

Restore confidence, rebuild motivation and start FEELING POSITIVE again.

Positive psychology coaching helps you raise wellbeing, achieve more, and inspire others to create positive change too. 

Are you…..

  • Exhausted with trying to do everything?
  • Struggling at work and drowning in chores?
  • Finding it hard to relax or just have fun?
  • Wanting to inspire the people around you?
  • Even a priority in your own life anymore?

If you often feel overwhelmed or unmotivated, you’re in the RIGHT PLACE.

Meet with Jodie

I’ve been coaching professionals like you for over 18 years.

During that time, I’ve learned that most people overthink their challenges and underestimate their own strengths….

I help you

Imagine if you could reconnect with the best of you again.

Remember what it feels like to be confident, have absolute clarity about what you want, and how you’re going to get it.

Remember when you faced down challenges and blazed through adversity, with as much thought as you’d give a Sunday stroll.

I know you can do this. Why? Because I’ve helped hundreds of professionals, just like you to regain control of their lives and get back to making a difference. I know positive psychology coaching works.

Lisa Burling, Owner & Consultant. LBPR

I can't thank Jodie enough for providing me with the tools and guidance to unlock and identify my values and direction, and at a very pivotal time of my life. With her calm yet reassuring manner, and a weekly set of tools, I can say, I am not the woman who walked through her door on day one - I am a MUCH better version! I can't recommend Jodie highly enough.

Positive psychology coaching gives professionals like you:

  • Clarity and direction with work and life
  • Personal and professional confidence
  • Tools to improve relationships
  • Positive habits and routines that work
  • Control over your inner critic
  • Productivity solutions to get back on top
  • Motivation to lead positive change
  • Time to rediscover fun and joy again
  • Resilience to overcome challenges
  • More focus on wellbeing and health
  • Hope for a more positive future
  • Consistent and supportive feedback

Stacy Corbeski, Brand & Marketing Strategy. Aster Group

Thank you for being an amazing mentor to me Jodie! Your coaching always sees me walking away with restored clarity and being happy with what I already give, and who I am. I have made some great achievements and I should be proud. Yes, there is always room for self-improvement and reflection, but your approach is always positive and you never make me feel like I have failed. I’m truly grateful to you.

What Will executive coaching with Jodie actually look like?

The first coaching session is free. No obligations, no hard sell and definitely no ongoing stalking afterwards. 

I offer an hour to talk through what’s going on for you. I’ll share some science around positive psychology, explain the way I work, and together we’ll map out what success looks like.

I’ll likely gift you a book, then send you off to talk with your inner circle about the decision. (I hate pushy salespeople, so you definitely won’t get that from me.)

Then, if you choose to go ahead, each coaching session is approximately an hour. It’s fun, playful and you’ll walk out of our positive psychology coaching sessions feeling more focused, positive, confident and in control. 

Generally, over the ten sessions we’ll weave in and out of the following topics.
Gaining Clarity
Simplifying Success
Boosting Wellbeing
Setting Boundaries
Thinking better
Improving Connections
Crafting habits
Finding Flow
Building confidence
Staying Motivated
Discovering Joy
Lifting Energy

Want to feel more confident, motivated, POSITIVE and productive?

Ms R, Specialist Support Coordinator

My sessions with Jodie are always amazing. They are specifically targeted to my needs and Jodie is extremely flexible. She has a positive, encouraging and reassuring nature, and her delivery of the original coaching sessions and now regular sessions certainly makes me feel comfortable and supported. Jodie has given me the confidence to now move forward with my goals and challenges. I highly recommended Jodie and I will certainly be staying connected.

Why is Jodie’s coaching program different?

  • Wellbeing isn’t just a nicety to me; It’s how I live.

    I start each day watching the sun rise with Oliver (my overzealous cocker spaniel) and make my wellbeing my priority. I know it's my wellbeing that underpins my happiness and success.

  • I definitely don't know everything.

    While I know what works for me, I also know that those things may not work for you. So, my job isn’t to ‘know it all’, but rather to help you get curious, and playfully explore what might work for you.

  • Coaching is a fun, fluid, friendship like no other.

    I love developing relationships and staying connected to clients as we go. So, if you smash a goal, text me a pic. Or if we laughed about Oliver, I’ll SMS you a shot of him destroying… yet another library book. LOL. The more connected we feel, the more likely you are to create positive change.

  • I love adventure and I adore being in nature.

    I’ll inspire you to dig deep to find the things you love too, because I know firsthand the joy it brings. I’ll support you to reconnect with what lights you up, because there’s no sense in getting more done… just so you can do more. I want you to fall in love with life again.

  • I’m no superwoman.

    I’m comfortable getting things wrong, sharing my mistakes and opening up about my experiences. We’ll likely laugh about my family refusing to eat my cooking and you’ll get the unfiltered version of what I believe success is. We won’t just spend time on you, we’ll be tapping into a beautiful synergy between us.

  • I’m probably a lot like you.

    I’m also juggling kids, work commitments, family and my wellbeing. While my life definitely isn’t perfect, it is full of fun, adventure and I know that what I do, makes a difference. If you've got multiple tabs open, I totally get it. Let's not aim for miracles, but bite sized, tangible improvements.

  • I have a little experience.

    With over 18 years’ experience coaching and a Masters in Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP), I know how to help professionals like you to create positive change, that sticks. The science is there to help us and my job is to bring it to life for you.

The very cool truth about wellbeing

Wellbeing underpins everything I do in my positive psychology coaching sessions… Why?

It’s as simple as that. 

You know that you’re more likely to walk the dog, choose an apple or make time for your kids… when you’re feeling good. However, you also know that when you’re feeling bad, you’re more likely to choose Netflix, Tim-tams and get narky at the kids. 

Here’s a little science on why prioritising wellbeing makes sense.
When you feel positive, your brain becomes 31% more productive.
Your staff (and kids) are likely to be 30% more productive if you're positive.
High levels of wellbeing give you up to 23% more energy.
Wellbeing boosts creativity by around three times, helping you solve the tricky issues.
Your salary, productivity and engagement are closely correlated to your wellbeing.

Rebuilding your wellbeing will enable you to relax more often, find contentment and joy in every day things and give you the resources and strategies to become happier in yourself. 

If you invest in just one thing, it should be your WELLBEING.

Rachel Tolosa Paz, Philanthropic Researcher

Many thanks to you, Jodie. Thank you for your patience and kindness over the last few months. I had no idea what to expect coming into these sessions but somewhere inside of me, I think I knew I needed some guidance in more personal areas, rather than professional, so I am really grateful that you picked up on what I needed to do. Many thanks for all of your time and energy!

Carolyn Dews. Community Relations Manager. Warrigal Care

I have worked with Jodie for a number for years now. She is a true professional and an outstanding Coach. Jodie is always able to assist in coming up with simple solutions to what often seem complex issues. Jodie's positive and happy outlook is infectious and I would highly recommend Jodie to others who may want assistance in improving the quality of their life.

Jodie’s coaching program could be a great fit if you’re thinking….

  • I’ve lost clarity on what’s important and often feel overwhelmed.
  • I’m totally exhausted, but I know I can do better.
  • I can’t switch off because I feel like resting is unproductive.
  • My inner critic tells me I’m failing or I’m not good enough, and I can't keep it in check.
  • I’m working my butt off, but feel like I’m not getting anywhere.
  • I’m always taking care of everyone… all the time, but never prioritise me.
  • Some days I spend more time procrastinating and overthinking than actually doing work.
  • Why can't I set boundaries or say no to anything
  • I can recall being confident, motivated and fun, but that feel’s like a lifetime ago.
  • I loathe the chaos at home and struggle to have fun with the family when the washing needs sorting or house needs cleaning.

Chris Hudson. Supply Chain & Logistics Consultant

Working with Jodie as my coach is fantastic. I have already gained so many valuable and profound insights into who I am and how I am operating in life and work. More importantly she helps me identify the beliefs and internal processes hindering me and provides clear practical ways for me to effect positive change. Working with Jodie is one of the best investments I have made in a long time, wishing I had done it years ago.

Helen Grace, Specialist Educator

I am gaining an understanding of how my brain works in different situations and continue to develop strategies to cope and work through things in a more positive and mindful way.
I would highly recommend Jodie to anyone wanting to explore 'Positive Psychology'. It has had a profoundly positive affect on my life.

As your coach, together we will;

  • Drink a lot of tea (live or online)
  • Have a laugh and get to know each other
  • Share stories of success and struggles
  • Discover your strengths and potential
  • Explore opportunities to make life better
  • Reconnect with the things that spark joy
  • Build habits that support wellbeing
  • Prioritise you

Coaching isn’t for everyone, and Jodie doesn’t accept all clients.

If the below sounds like you, perhaps positive psychology coaching isn’t the right avenue, right now.

  • You aren’t prepared to prioritise yourself because work, family or some other commitment is more important right now.
  • You want instant results without putting in the work. I accept that some people want a quick fix, it’s just not the way I do things.
  • You aren’t open to talking about your thoughts and emotions and don’t see how delving into your head will change anything.
  • You don’t trust the process and aren’t ready for the hard questions that come with a relationship like this.

Here’s what other professionals love about working with Jodie.
I now have clarity around my priorities and how to live them.
I’ve got simple strategies to get more done in less time.
I feel confident in myself and have tamed my self doubt.
I can say “NO”; To anything. I actually have boundaries now.
I’ve got more time for friends, family and fun stuff.
I’m actually making a difference at work and contributing.
I feel optimistic again and am excited about my future.
I’m just happier in myself and content with my life.

Ready to feel more POSITIVE and have more FUN?

Meet with Jodie

Erin Weekes. Emergency Services

As cliche as it may sound working with Jodie was literally life changing!! I came to her at a time when I felt stuck and a little lost about many areas of my life. After first meeting her I instantly knew I was in good hands.  The journey I on went with her, led to many positive changes in my life. I’ve learnt to shift my thinking and see things from an entirely new and positive perspective and  I have gained an abundance of skills and techniques that continue to benefit me every day. From time to time I go back and “check in” with Jodie and it is like coming home to an old friend. My spirit is immediately lifted and I am overcome with a vibe that stays with me for days. I cannot thank the Universe enough for leading me to Jodie and would recommend her to anyone looking for some extra guidance with any area of life.

After my first meeting with Jodie I felt empowered to achieve the outcome I had in mind, when previously I wasn't sure I had the reach. Jodie's seemingly effortless style drew out the best in me, integrated communication skills that have enriched my life and that I now carry into the future ...one meeting! I unreservedly recommend Jodie as a Wellbeing Coach and Educator.
Why I do what I do.

I believe the world right now, needs you to shine.

When you allow your inner critic to take over or feel overwhelmed or stuck in procrastination, you simply won’t have the time, energy or motivation to help our world. 

Right now, our world has too many challenges and not enough brave leaders to face them. From climate change to corruption; poverty to poaching, social media to self harm. The issues we face are unprecedented and the rate of change is accelerating.

Our world, right now, needs professionals like you, to inspire and lead positive change.

I do what I do, because I know, that when you feel great, you will inspire the people around you to take small, but positive action. And that has the potential to create incredible ripples, right across our globe.

Still have some questions?

Absolutely true. You do not need anything added to your to do list right now. That’s why the first few sessions we focus more on thinking and noticing. We start with an hour a week, and even after our first coaching session, you’ll have found more time and energy to invest in your wellbeing. During our first chat, (yes, the free one) you’ll start feeling more optimistic and motivated and get a feel for what’s possible again.

Yes and No. Yes, during the ten sessions you’ll definitely make incredible progress and largely be feeling like a new woman. You’ll gain clarity, improve your wellbeing and feel in control again. 

However, life isn’t a neat path straight to happy ever after. It’s more like a cocker spaniel racing along, smelling a million things and looping, back tracking and jumping all over the place. Because life’s like this, many of my clients stay with me after the initial ten sessions. They purchase another package of ten sessions and space them out monthly, or bimonthly, to keep them accountable and on track. I’ve had numerous clients for over ten years. 

Positive psychology coaching is a little different to executive coaching and life coaching. I’m unique in that I blend all three. 

Executive coaching focuses on boosting productivity and leadership skills. It can leave out the messy head stuff around why you feel overwhelmed, or lack confidence or keep procrastinating. Most executive coaching will not delve into the science of wellbeing or help you prioritise your personal values at work. It will support you to get more done and become more efficient, but I don’t believe that’s enough for you. 

Life coaching works by asking great questions. While there’s incredible value in helping you to think deeply, they don’t share the science of positive psychology, making the process longer, and typically less effective. Life coaching also doesn’t cover the complexities of your professional life and the nuances of becoming more effective in your role. 

Positive psychology coaching uses evidence-based initiatives from positive psychology to help you manage stress, amplify the positives, nurture your strengths and enable your wellbeing on every level. While the science isn’t everything, in my experience, once people understand how their brains work, where willpower and motivation come from and how to manage their inner critic, everything becomes easier. 

So, what I offer is a very unique blend of positive psychology coaching, with executive and life coaching mixed in as needed. I’ve found over the years, that it’s incredibly powerful to have the three disciplines, and love being able to support clients in a way that’s just right for them. 

With 18 years’ experience, and clients who keep returning year after year, I’m pretty confident I can help you make the changes you want.

To be brutally honest, I’m not fixated on your goals and getting you there. I do however, care deeply about your wellbeing, because I know that will become the path to your success. As we work together, I’ll help you get really discerning about what goals are important and what you can ditch.

There’s a simple science around how you can feel better, achieve more and create a rewarding and meaningful life. I’ll share everything I know in little bite size chunks to make it as easy as possible.

You may be able to fool yourself with excuses or distractions, but I have highly tuned BS radar and am happy to call it. Don’t worry, I’ll always be compassionate, but I’m a big believer in clear and kind communication.

I get it. There’s always something more important. While that’s valid, it can also become a pattern when you never prioritise your own needs. Coaching is an investment in your wellbeing and will pay you back ten fold in quality time with the family, improved productivity and feeling content in yourself again. 

If not coaching, please make sure you do something for yourself. 

HELL NO! I’m definitely not saying that you can have it all. 

Personally, I think the idea that women can “have it all” is a stupid myth that’s perpetuating our exhaustion. What I will help you do is to get really clear on what’s important, regain your confidence and motivation, build in some simple strategies and positive habits so that you gradually redesign a life that feels great for you. 

You will learn to say no, become uber efficient, reconnect with things that matter and feel content that you have the time, space and energy to have fun again. 

Actually, once you start working with me, there’s a good chance you’ll start to see the damage that the “have it all” myth has done in your own life. 

Yep, you will survive. So, if surviving is the goal, you definitely don’t need a coach. 

If, however, you’d like to thrive; To feel calm, connected and on top of things; Then getting a little support is a great option to speed up your progress and gain accountability too. Remember, there’s no hard sell, so it’s worth having a conversation and seeing what it’s all about.
