Stressed & Exhausted?
There is an easier way.
If work feels like a burden and home is loaded with obligations, it’s time for a different approach.
Positive mental health is built on the science of wellbeing. When you understand how your brain works, how to build healthy habits and how to show up with clarity and confidence, everything changes.
At the heart of my work is the simple truth…
When you feel good, you do good.
Is it easy? No.
That’s exactly why I’ve built the positive mental health program.

Positive Mental Health Coaching & Training Feedback

Erin Weeks. Emergency Services Professional
“Jodie’s well-being session on our planning day helped to set the tone for the year for my team. Jodie’s positive and considered approach to mindfulness was a great reminder to find gratitude in all aspects of our lives. Her techniques and interactive games helped us consider the great things we have achieved at our service and created a positive mindset to project into our year ahead!”
Charise Orvad, Director. Keiraview Education & Care Services.
“From a business perspective, I believe that if you’re not seeing a professional like Jodie, it’s not possible for you to be firing on all cylinders. After 10 years in the industry and 5 years in charge I was overwhelmed with the ongoing responsibilities that needed to be met on a daily basis. Having 16 staff members, controlling three different divisions was a consistent challenge of which my life was in total disarray. I had no balance in my life and it felt as though I was constantly chasing my tail.
Within two sessions, Jodie had me worked out. It was such a relief. I was delegating left, right and center and was able to focus predominantly on the areas of my business that needed me most. I have a 5 year plan and the company has grown by 20%. The ability to see the goals we put in place being met is incredible. Business is exciting as is the wonderful environment I have been able to create at work. More importantly, I am very happy from every perspective and this I give thanks to Jodie for ‘sorting me out’.”
Adam Martin, Manager & Owner. MMJ South
“Thanks for sharing your presentation Breaking The Cycle Of Stress recently, it was one of the most practical and easy to understand sessions on this topic I have ever attended!
It’s great to have the information to understand why we get stressed in the first place and some practical exercises we can use straight away to help manage stress. Highly recommend!”
Sam Bailey, Risk & Safety Officer. Meander Valley Council
“Having recently participated in the Public Speaking Workshop at UOW, it gave me an introduction to the skills and the courage to put what I learnt into practice with opportunities to speak in front of two audiences so far. Jodie’s sound knowledge and her personality were so beneficial to me and how I participated.”
Debbie Critcher, Student Services Officer. University of Wollongong
“Jodie’s presentation was fun and a really good way of practically showing the power of laughter at work and with your teams and service users. I thought it was going to be a little “fluffy” to start with, but her activities were fun and actually demonstrated the point of being able to transfer this sort of thing into the workplace. The key take home message for me was how we share good news and congratulate our employees when they are doing great work or feeling undervalued.”
The Disability Trust
“I am finding it way easier to speak in public now. I’ve hosted quite a few Information nights and I was speaking in front of 120 peeps the other day and that was completely unplanned and off the cuff. I’ve also joined Business Networking and I know I would have really struggled with all of these things if I hadn’t done your course. Thank you Jodie, you are so good at what you do!”
Alysia Samperi, Director. Life Wave
“I have had the pleasure of attending several executive coaching sessions and public speaking workshops with Jodie.
I am in awe of Jodie’s energy, positiveness, genuine and sincere support and understanding of the key issues that relate to the individual.
I strongly recommend Jodie’s executive coaching skills, advice, skills and current knowledge to those who want a competitive edge.”
Karen Gardner. TAFE NSW
“I have worked with Jodie Cooper for many years. I approached Jodie in the capacity of being a Life Coach with a specific focus on assisting me with challenges that I was facing at work. Each month I would meet up with Jodie to discuss challenges and to develop strategies. I have found Jodie to be a true professional and a wonderful person, who is both an outstanding coach and a person with great values and integrity- someone who I am really able to relate to and trust.
Each month Jodie would listen to and discuss with me the challenges that I was facing and each month I would leave the appointment feeling much more optimistic about the future and with effective strategies that I could put in place in my work life and in my personal life.
I would highly recommend Jodie to anyone who wanted some guidance and assistance in life generally. The true value of a Life Coach is having someone who is qualified and experienced to listen to you and to assist you in achieving your goals and dreams!”
Carolyn Dews, Former GM. Illawarra Academy of Sport
“Attending Jodie’s public speaking course opened up unexpected opportunities. I not only learnt techniques for public speaking, I was able to transfer skills into 1:1 conversations. Jodie made a very daunting course, comfortable and safe environment. Thanks Jodie!”
Sarah Lisle. Speaking with Confidence Participant
“Jodie Cooper is a breath of fresh air and a voice of reason in a world of uncertainty and regulation that is stifling business and impacting on quality lifestyles. Working with Jodie has been a delight, her insightful counsel and encouragement has helped me find a clear path to work life balance. I would highly recommend Jodie to any executive or business owner looking to change their life for the better and smell the roses.”
Phil Horan, Director, Innovating Energy
“If you want to be the best you can be, then Jodie’s 6 week program will head you in the right direction. Arriving for my first session feeling quite apprehensive about what to expect, Jodie very quickly put me at ease with her motivating and caring manner. She has a unique ability to inspire without being pushy or forceful. After leaving my first life coaching session I was already looking forward to the second.
During the next 6-8 weeks I found myself leaving every session feeling inspired and excited about both long and short term goals. Jodie is very wise for her years constantly surprising me with ways of coping with difficult situations both personally and professional which in time develops an inner strength. I would have no hesitations in recommending Jodie to anyone who wants to tap into and reach their full potential!”
Michelle Forte. Dance Professional
“Jodie was a terrific presenter at our recent Staff Development day. Her enthusiasm and positiveness was well received by all attendees.”
Veronica Macdonald, Uniting Burnside
“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.”
Carolyn Dews. Community Relations Manager. Warrigal Care
“I recently attended Jodie Cooper’s “Public Speaking Course”… and all I can say is WOW! What I love the most about Jodie’s sessions is the positive mindset that you can’t help but walk away with. I am excited to reflect and build upon and the frameworks Jodie shared and walked away from the session feeling inspired and ready to tackle my upcoming public speaking responsibilities. So thank you Jodie for sharing your expertise and building my motivation and confidence to tackle my public speaking fears.”
Carlie Page-Quinn, Training & Development Officer. ECTARC
“The Public Speaking course was not just an exceptional course, it was an exceptional experience. I enjoyed every minute of it! I gained a multitude of new skills and my confidence levels increased ten fold. I went away feeling like I could really capture and engage my audience in a way that I have not done before. Thank you Jodie, I can honestly say that this course was life changing!!”
Tina Hunt. Wollongong Cancer Council
“Jodie is very personable, natural and engaging. She is a ‘down to earth’ presenter, and inspiring to all who have had the good fortune to listen to her. Jodie makes a genuine connection with her audience. We have been particularly impressed at Jodie’s ability to link her goal setting and experiences and make them relevant to her audience, because of this ability Jodie’s key messages stay with her audience for a long time.
Jodie gives a hands-on presentation with audience participation with participants reporting her presentations to be valuable. She reinforces the importance of setting goals in our lives. Jodie’s willingness to talk with her audience individually after her presentations allows them to absorb some of her determination into their own goal setting.”
Glenda Papac, Director. Illawarra Women in Business
“I have been seeing Jodie on an off for several years now, reconnecting whenever I have felt that I am not living my best life. Most recently, I reconnected when I was found unsuitable for an executive level position I had been working in for some time. My confidence had taken a hit and I was struggling in my role and in myself to continue moving forward. I began working with Jodie again, to increase my confidence and identify strengthens within myself that I thought we were lost. Over time my confidence and drive increased and I felt purpose come back to my position. My boss noticed the changed and gave me more and more opportunities to prove that I am a capable leader. Working on my confidence levels and with Jodie’s encouragement, I applied for other roles outside of my organisation to increase my interview skills. When roles within my organisation were advertised again (a year later for context) I approached the interview very differently and left with a feeling of accomplishment. A few months later I was found successful in the recruitment and now own my position permanently. I am continuing working with Jodie to help my leadership ability and increase myself believe in other areas of my life. After this I am sure Jodie will remain my first point of call for my next challenge in life. I would recommend Jodie to anyone who is looking for a bit of extra help in any areas of your life.”
Tamara Dyson, National Security
“Jodie Coopers positive psychology coaching brought insights to myself. It helps in ways that have a lasting impact, I would recommend to anyone.”
Jason Dyer, Owner. Reliable Pest Solutions
“I believe the essential criteria of Life Coaching are listening, challenging and facilitation. Jodie strikes a great balance between all three, drawing out the answers from within. When taking on a coach, my goal was to attain an understanding of the process with an aim to use this knowledge to improve my interactions with people. I have been able to achieve this goal and more. At the same time learning more about myself and the importance of setting goals. Coaching has enhanced my ability to understand “just what is important”. With focus and belief anything is possible.
Coaching provides the opportunity to critically evaluate yourself. There is nothing so challenging than to question your long held beliefs. The best outcome of coaching was to extend your reasoning power by having someone that will listen, question and facilitate but not judge. The benefit of hearing yourself explain yours goals and thoughts cannot be underestimated.
If you are seeking to challenge yourself, maximise your output or simply to learn more about yourself then coaching could be for you. Coaching provides the vehicle for you to focus on whatever it is that is important to you (it is different for everyone; it is definitely not one size fits all.)”
