Meet Jodie Cooper
Positive Psychology Coach & Wellbeing Trainer
Hey there,
If you’re ready to feel more confident, focused, and better equipped for everyday life, these wellbeing workshops are for you.
Over the past 20 years I’ve helped people just like you to rediscover their strengths, rebuild resilience, and create healthier habits that actually last. I know firsthand how easy it is to get caught in the cycle of overthinking, overwhelm, and exhaustion — and how powerful it can be to pause, reset and reconnect with what really matters.
That’s exactly why I’ve designed these positive psychology events: to give you practical, science-backed tools in three key areas — building confidence, working with wellbeing, and developing healthy habits.
Together, we’ll explore how to quieten your inner critic, find calm in the chaos, and create small, steady changes that make a big difference over time.
At the heart of all my work is a simple truth: when you protect and prioritise your wellbeing, everything else improves. Work feels more manageable, home feels lighter, and you start to thrive again — with clarity, balance, and a sense of possibility.
These workshops are your next step in the right direction.
✨ It’s your time. ✨
“By prioritising Wellbeing, you fuel your Success.”
Positive Psychology Coaching & Training Feedback
Robyn Dawson, Events & Operations Management. GRIDSIGHT.
“Jodie’s laughter session was an instant success with all carers. Jodie is a fantastic presenter, energetic, funny and exceeded carer’s expectations.Thank you!”
Myriam Marchant. Kiama Council
“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
“I attended a course on public speaking with Jodie Cooper as our lecturer. It was an amazing day and she helped us all to feel more confident when confronted by an audience.
I can highly recommend Jodie. She gives a course that is clear and precise and one leaves with so much more confidence.
Thank you Jodie. I learnt so much from you. I definitely recommend doing this course if you are facing public speaking.”
Sally Mynhardt, Registered Nurse
“Perfectly pitched session, perfectly timed and positive feedback from all the team who attended. Would highly recommend.”
Matthew Perry, Director. Graduate Research, UOW
“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
“Jodie’s Coaching and small business advice is very practical and has helped me discover the important priorities in my business and personal life, I have found her coaching service incredibly helpful… Five stars.”
Scott Penning. Real Estate Professional
“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!”
Rachel Tolosa Paz, Philanthropic Researcher
“Jodie helped me organise my dreams, wishes and ideas into realistic and achievable goals. Her straight advice backed with plenty of real world experience gave me a ‘head start’ on my path to the goals I set. She packed so much information into all the life coaching sessions! Jodie’s’ coaching isn’t an expense- it’s an investment into your future. If you ever feel stuck, lost, clueless or wondering what to do next, Jodie Cooper is the person to turn to.”
Michael, Young Entrepreneur
“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 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’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 started coaching sessions with Jodie for a bit of help with public speaking but our sessions quickly turned into what I can only describe as the best soul searching, growth and development coaching I could have ever dreamed of. Jodie goes above and beyond and is so well educated in her field of positive psychology and mindset that she was able to give me tools to initiate life-long change that I can apply to all areas of my life. She really has changed my outlook on life and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.”
Debbie Bruce, Owner. Get Active Health Solutions
“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.”
Ms R, Specialist Support Coordinator
“I LOVED IT. She truly engaged! I also felt she spoke TO us and not AT us which makes a huge difference.”
Julie, CanTeen Australia
“Public speaking is no ones favorite thing so I was nervous and unsure of what would be expected of me. I was pleasantly surprised. Jodie made it a safe and supportive environment and we were given permission to try and fail, but we all succeeded. It was a great experience and I would recommend this program to anyone and everyone. There is a sneaky bit of personal growth here so its worthwhile on so many levels.”
Tracey Wilson. University of Wollongong
“I wanted to send you a big thank you for your fantastic workshop on a subject a lot of people dread … Public Speaking! You took the fear out of this process for me and I’ve already taken on board the various tips and tricks for successful speaking in the future.
Thank you for an engaging, fun, encouraging and helpful workshop – I totally recommend attending Jodie’s workshop if you want to conquer the fear … and turn it instead into a very positive experience!”
Jo Singletary, University of Wollongong
“It was an absolute pleasure to work with Jodie. She is knowledgeable, open-minded and brings a wealth of experience and positivity to any challenge. She conducts all of her business in a professional and well-considered manner. Perhaps what is the most impressive aspect of Jodie is that she lives and breathes what she subscribes to. Jodie is an authentic example of inspiring positivity and I would not hesitate to work with her again.”
Tara Clarke, Local Government Consultant
“Jodie was amazing in helping me get ready for pitching! Her support and coaching in getting my ideas from thought to paper then get them structured led to us winning our pitching contest. What she taught me now forms the foundation of how I approach pitching, and, putting ideas to paper.”
Chris Magiri, Founder. GenSpeak
“Thank you for empowering me to understand why we humans behave the way we do.Your interactive workshop was one of the best I have attended and has provided me with some great tools for my business and personal life.”
