“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
“After one 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.”
Heather Chaplin, Community Wellbeing Advocate

Stacey Corbeski, Brand & Marketing Strategy. Aster Group
“Meeting with Jodie came with perfect timing! I was at the start of a week full of important meetings and dead lines, and feeling the pressure! I was also at a point in both my personal and business life that required some clarity and direction.
Jodie worked with me to remove the stress I was feeling and the pressure I was placing on myself, and see the future clearer through goal setting and realistic planning. I will be referring my friends to Jodie and look forward to implementing the systems she has given me.”
Paul Munro, Director. Vision Studio
“I came to see Jodie at the start of my Honours year in a Bachelor of Psychology because I was aware that certain aspects of my lifestyle (e.g. time management) were limiting my potential at University. Jodie helped me to implement meaningful change in a number of areas of my life that helped me to stay on track throughout a very challenging year. Jodie played a big part in helping me achieve first class honours and the best thesis mark from any student under my honours supervisor.
The sessions were enjoyable and engaging and helped me look at life from a different perspective. It amazed me how making a number of small, yet powerful changes made such a difference. My family and friends recognised how consistently I was able to work throughout the year and how much my time management improved. Jodie was also very happy to provide assistance outside our structured session times to help me get through periods when balancing course and thesis work seemed too much to handle. I truly appreciate your help, thank you Jodie.”
Jordan Schaefer, Honours Student. University of Wollongong
“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.)”
Greg Pollock, Partner. Butler & Pollock

Not only is my life more positive, my mind feels as though it’s been opened to endless possibilities and my hands have been placed on the steering wheel of my life……… and I have gained an awesome friend too.”
Linda Brown, Wollongong
“I met Jodie at the suggestion of my employer, I’d lost motivation, was miserable to be around both at work and at home, and deep down I knew I wasn’t being the best “me” I could be.
The first session I had with Jodie was primarily me just sitting back and listening. There were lots of questions, time for reflection, and uncomfortable silence on occasion, but I was cautious and in hindsight I didn’t make it easy for Jodie. That evening I had time to think about what we talked about and it dawned on me that only I could make the changes I needed to make, and only if I wanted to change.
After that first session I did the homework, listened more intently, researched a little, and participated as best I could. Jodie was very insightful, and I learned a lot, mostly about myself. I learned to be in the moment, to value what’s important to me and use that as motivation to turn things around.
6 months later and I’m not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but I think I’m very close to being “me” again, even the family has noticed a big difference. I’m looking forward to the future and I’m indebted to Jodie for helping (challenging) me to find this path forward.”
Andrew Severn, Projects Manager. Peoplecare
“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
“I have different roles at home, work and in my community, and with this comes competing opportunities for how I live the hours of each day. I’ve learnt from Jodie that I can find greater joy when my daily actions are aligned with my personal values.
The time we spent clarifying my values and identifying ways I can live them in daily life was such an empowering exercise. Valuing my ‘intuition’ highly means I can tune in to it regularly, and use it to guide my decisions and actions, allowing me prioritise my other core values of mindfulness, health, family, simplicity, creativity, kindness, making a difference, community and learning.”
Robyn Johnson, Director. Blend ESQ and Host of Sustainability Podcast, Wollongong, Let’s Get Salty
