“I was gobsmacked! The room was set up in a manner that was welcoming and friendly, tables prepared with iced water and mints. Jodie was there to greet each of us as we entered, her friendly demeanor made us all feel very comfortable and welcomed. Jodie wasn’t your typical ‘corporate’ style presenter, if anything she presented as one of us and I liked that. Jodie’s style of presenting was calm and controlled, she listened intently as we shared our individual fears of presenting to an audience and reassured us all that at the end of the day, we would have the tools needed to overcome those fears. But I was still frightened, my heart raced as it approached my turn to present…I stood on the star in the middle of the room….I could hear my own heartbeat in my ear…but I took a deep breath and whispered to myself ‘You’ve got this’ I put in place everything that Jodie had taught us that day…and NAILED it! – The only thing to fear is fear itself. Thank you for your wisdom Jodie and for sharing your knowledge – you are a true inspiration.”

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.

That’s exactly why I’ve built the positive mental health program.

Positive Mental Health Coaching & Training Feedback

Eddie Boyle, Strategic Manager. Warrigal
“I had the opportunity to engage Jodie Cooper to fundamentally improve my approach to business success through executive coaching. Jodie’s clear, honest and tailored executive program has seen a shift in my ability to be a sales leader, develop more meaningful stakeholder relationships – and ultimately focus on growth drivers for business and personal success.”
Matthew Becker, National Business Manager. Coca-Cola Amatil
“Jodie presented to the leadership team of Illawarra Shoalhaven Family & Community Services and nailed it. Jodie has a depth of knowledge in leadership, positive psychology, mental health/wellbeing at work and self care. I would highly recommend Jodie to any work group, she was easy to communicate with when developing the program to suit our needs and responded to our questions and queries with care.
Jodie was able to present information and internal statistics in a manner which was engaging and thought provoking, whilst giving leaders pratical advice and implementation strategies as soon as they left the room. The workshop was also fun and the energy Jodie created in the room was remarkable. As Jodie says, ‘relationships and other people matter’ so to get the best out of your team and time I wouldn’t hesitate in using Jodie again.”
Rose McGoldrick, Manager Client Services Wollongong. Department of Communities & Justice
“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
“Thanks so much, again, for your help. You really did catch me when I was falling. You gave me the courage I needed too. I am so much happier, healthier, inspired, confident and excited… you played a big part in that!”

Jodie presented to the Virtual Conference for the Support Services teams of MND Australia and the MND state associations. Thank you so much for this online presentation – you were very engaging and the activities via Zoom breakout rooms were fantastic. It was nice to take time out from our busy workloads to re-centre and look at the positives we have in our lives, even during a pandemic. Highly recommend!

“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

It went a long way to improving my self-awareness and my self-confidence. I especially loved the activities that we participated in which created a positive, happy, and safe place for all to be part of. Would highly recommend Jodie as a facilitator.”
