I had the pleasure of attending one of Jodie’s workshop/presentations here in Merimbula and have to say it was one of the best I have ever been too. I arrived feeling a little nervous and left with so much positivity and confidence. I’ve already contacted Jodie for further coaching. If you get the chance to attend any of Jodie’s presentations, I thoroughly recommend attending, you won’t be disappointed!

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
Danielle Pearson, Director. Sapphire Conveyancing
“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
“As cliche as it may sound working with Jodie was literally life changing!!
I came to her at a time when I felt stuck and a little lost about many areas of my life. After first meeting her I instantly knew I was in good hands. The journey I on went with her, led to many positive changes in my life. I’ve learnt to shift my thinking and see things from an entirely new and positive perspective, I have gained an abundance of skills and techniques that continue to benefit me every day. From time to time I go back and “check in” with Jodie it is like coming home to an old friend. My spirit is immediately lifted and I am overcome with a vibe that stays with me for days.
I cannot thank the Universe enough for leading me to Jodie and would recommend her to anyone looking for some extra guidance with any area of life.”
Erin Weekes. Emergency Services

She has drawn the best out of me and helped me see the best in others and the world in general. Anyone who thinks their life can be better – It can be! So much I have worked through – I am truly a better Linda – with determination, vision and self confidence to boot! 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.”

Myriam Marchant. Kiama Council
“The laughter workshop with you was both inspiring and uplifting! Everyone I spoke to afterwards told me that it had made them feel relaxed and recharged. The mental and physical benefits you shared with us, showing us the wonders of ‘laughter’ proved just how important it is to take time out of our busy lives to simply enjoy. It certainly made us all laugh!”
Eamelia Mozejko, Sales Consultant. Bartercard
“I loved the format and contents of this workshop. It’s taught me so much more than just preparing a presentation or speech. Jodie knows a lot and she is an amazing educator and speaker. I’m so glad I attended!”
Dorina Basurto, Wellness and Healing at Home
“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.”
Marian Golubic, National Operations Manager. Gemtek Pty Ltd
“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 have had the pleasure of attending several executive coaching sessions and public speaking workshops with Jodie.

Karen Gardner. TAFE NSW

That’s a hard combination to achieve, but she does it with style and grace.
Jodie would be a huge asset to ANY group who is looking for an amazing, down to earth speaker. Jodie can capture her audience with your energy, conviction and the undeniable passion for her message. Your ability to connect to a variety of personalities, cultures, and ages is a true gift!”
