“I started seeing Jodie Mid October 2022. I had just ended a 3 year relationship. I felt I had lost my way, my identity, my motivation and needed guidance to get back on track. I felt comfortable with Jodie from the initial ‘get to know each other’ session.
Jodie is so knowledgeable and understanding and has really taken the time to get to know me deeply and guide me through difficult and confronting topics. 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.
Jodie does check ins throughout the week to see how I am going or to offer encouragement and is always available if I have a question or I want to express my happiness of achieving a success or goal.
I would highly recommend Jodie to anyone wanting to explore ‘Positive Psychology’. It has had a profoundly positive affect on my life.”

Positive Psychology Coaching Feedback
Helen Grace, Specialist Educator
“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
“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.”
Stacy Corbeski, Brand & Marketing Strategy. Aster Group
“After 10 years owning and running a business it was time to freshen things up. My first and best move was to engage Jodie as a business and life coach. Over an initial 8 week period, Jodie provided down-to-earth psychological and emotional education and practical techniques to bring about change. I made a commitment to my myself to try these immediately at work and at home. Our company now has clearer goals, my team and I are achieving better business results, and we are happier doing it.
I also highly recommend Jodie’s Public Speaking course. In just one day our team went from zero to each presenting an engaging 5 minute talk. In my case, Jodie’s life coaching and public speaking training have given me the time and confidence to start performing stand up comedy, an ambition I had harbored since my teens.”
Dean Jackson, Owner and General Manager. Planet Footprint
“Can’t thank Jodie enough for her help, support and knowledge. She’s provided me with the framework I needed for my business. Look forward to continuing to grow and developing my skills!”
Doreen Brown, SEO Specialist. Doreen Brown Consulting
“Jodie has been a wonderful coach and is really helping me to set and achieve goals and to practice self-care, which can be challenging with a baby and a toddler! Jodie is extremely kind, easy to talk to and provides many great strategies and ideas for personal and professional growth. She also gives amazing parenting advice! Very glad to have found her!”
Deborah Clark, Entrepreneur & Mum
“I have been in business for 39 years and had this thought in my head “What could Jodie possibly teach me? She is so young.” Well I was pleasantly surprised. Jodie not only helped me with my business but also in my personal life. Jodie helped me to understand and handle myself and my relationships better.
I achieve so much more in a day with the simple but effective tools that Jodie has given me. I can now face my fears and just do it. I am so much more organised I have more time and my life is more balanced.
The sessions with Jodie more than met with my expectations and I now have a completely different opinion on Business and Life coaching than I did before. Thank you Jodie Cooper!”
Maralyn Young, Managing Director. Casa Mia
“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.”
Chris Hudson. Supply Chain & Logistics Consultant
“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’ve enjoyed working with Jodie over the last four months whilst I’ve been working through some challenging work/life changes. Jodie has challenged my processed and thoughts with questions and suggestions that have encouraged me to look at the Status Quo and see beyond to the possibilities.
Her gentle probing is more often than not completely on point and that has enabled me to work through the self-imposed blockages and restrictions that have hampered not only my thought processes but how I have limited myself in what I can and should do. The thought exercises she gives are provocative and for me encouraged some fairly deep thinking and self-reflection.
The results have been surprising (in the best possible way) and I am seeing long term positive benefits from engaging with Jodie.”
Bradley Ryan-Agnew, CFO. Ericom
“Jodie immediately made a friendly and very professional impression on me. When I met Jodie life was starting afresh for me, I had no contacts for my business and no direction as to how to grow my client base and business contacts. At her invitation I embarked on a 6 week program with her and at the end of these sessions I had realised all of my personal and professional goals and am now running a successful bustling Cooking School in our local area.
Jodie stood by me every step of the way, guided me and encouraged me to do the things I would not have had the confidence to do on my own. She kept reinforcing with me my natural abilities and even though I know I would have eventually achieved these successes, I also know I would never have done it in the short space of time without her support. I would recommend Jodie’s’ life coaching program to anyone wishing to expand their possibilities in any area of their lives. Jodie is establishing herself as Illawarra’s leading Life Coach with her simple yet determined guidance, which she hands over with intimate care, precision and clarity.”
Maria Mitzikis, The Food Muse
“I am currently being coached by Jodie Cooper and what can I say… I absolutely LOVE it!! Jodie has helped me in both my personal and business goals. She listens intently to my struggles and needs and offers creative solutions that have improved my business and my life as a happy and positive person. For quite sometime I was just working on my business day by day, project to project and not really growing or going anywhere. But now I have a clear vision as to where I’d like my business to go and how I’m going to get there.
Already in the few months I’ve been seeing her I’ve seen a growth in my business and I feel absolutely ecstatic about it. I highly recommend Jodie to absolutely anyone looking to improve their life and business in a happy and positive way. Thanks again Jodie. Love your work!”
Deidre Jones, Owner & Photographer. Dream Designs & Photography
“Jodie has given me the tools to manage stress and anxiety, and manage and priortise the ‘to do list’ without stress. Jodie’s given me ideas on how to communicate with my children better. My husband had noticed a big difference in my stress and anxiety, I’m more relaxed now. Coaching has enabled me to view my life in a more positive light.”
Kelly, Business Owner and Parent
“As soon as I took my business full time I knew I needed help. Jodie was able to help me unscramble what was in my head and organise how to get everything in a way that works for me to take control of my new adventure. Focusing on not only what I loved to do but also creating the best way I can make a profit out of it. Absolutely recommend Jodie, she makes you feel comfortable, relaxed and is professional. Love your work Jodie!”
Deidre Jones, Designer & Photographer. Dream Designs & Photography
“I’m so pleased that I decided to work with Jodie. Initially I was focused on building my professional capacity but Jodie’s mentoring has positively influenced so many aspects of my life. The skills and knowledge that I’ve developed have allowed me to successfully achieve my professional goals, though importantly build a strong foundation to be a more resilient and nurturing parent, friend and person. I can’t thank Jodie enough for her awesome inspiration and support.”
Andrew Williams, Senior Coasts and Estuaries Officer. NSW Office of Environment and Heritage
“I wanted to thank you for the work you have done with my daughter. She is in a much better place now and striving forward.”
Daniel Lawler, Engaged Parent
“I have been with Jodie’s work now for over 18 months. I have been diagnosed as suffering from ADHD for 10 years. Now the strand of ADHD that affects me is short term memory, lack of organisational skills, lack of future planning as well as anxiety coupled with depression. Everybody will no doubt have suffered from at least one of these problems if not more.
With a ADHD sufferer they experience it more intensely, more frequently and for longer. Jodie has been a major factor in bringing me out of the woods and 18 months down the track I have referred back to our work and I can honestly say that I have immediately achieved my smaller goals and now, even next week achieving my biggest goal which is travelling overseas on my own, as 18 months ago I saw it as an impossible and terrifying feat. If you’re not a sufferer of ADHD imagine what she could possibly do with/ for you.
Jodie’s work environment is very relaxed and we’ve had some good belly laughs as well. Thank you Jodie. I’m truly glad life sent me your way!”
Daryl Hockey, Heavy machinery operator
“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!”
Jackie Parry, Author & Adventurer. Sistership Publications
“I recently had the pleasure of experiencing both life coaching and speaking training sessions with Jodie Cooper, and it was a truly transformative journey. Jodie’s exceptional insights and positive approach during the life coaching sessions helped me overcome challenges and gain clarity on my goals. In the dynamic speaking training sessions, her expertise and tailored feedback significantly boosted my confidence and communication skills. Jodie’s passion for empowering others is evident in every aspect of her coaching and training. Her professionalism, warmth, and dedication create a supportive environment for personal and professional growth. I highly recommend Jodie Cooper for anyone seeking both transformative life coaching and impactful speaking training. Grateful for the positive impact on my personal and professional development! “
Tea Rundback, Invisible Disabilities Advocate
“My sessions with Jodie are always amazing. They are specifically targeted to my needs and Jodie is extremely flexible. Jodie 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.”
