This weeks is International Coaching Week!

Coaching has always been more than a profession to me - it’s a powerful catalyst for change.

What I love most about health and wellness coaching is witnessing that moment when someone realises they don’t have to keep pushing through, burning out, or doing it all alone. It’s the moment they reclaim their agency, reconnect with what matters, and start making space for themselves again.

When you combine that with the power of Positive Intelligence (PQ) coaching, the shift becomes even more profound.
PQ helps people build mental fitness by transforming the way they respond to pressure, rewire self-sabotaging patterns, and lead from a place of calm, confidence, and clarity.

It’s not just mindset work, it’s muscle-building for the brain.

Whether I’m supporting a midlife professional navigating change, or partnering with an organisation to design a culture that truly supports its people, one thing remains clear:
🌿 Wellbeing isn’t a luxury. It’s the foundation.

When we put wellbeing at the heart of how we live, work, and lead, everything changes.
⭐️ We think more clearly.
⭐️ Lead more calmly.
⭐️ Connect more deeply.
⭐️ Make decisions that align with our values.
⭐️ And create space for others to do the same.

This week, during International Coaching Week, I’m celebrating the power of coaching to create clarity, resilience, and meaningful impact - from the inside out.

𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 – 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸’𝘀 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽.

Last week, I had the privilege of delivering a Thrive Under Pressure workshop with a group of incredible researchers and professionals at UniSA’s Centre for Cancer Biology. In their high-stakes work, mental fitness isn’t just beneficial—it’s essential for sustained performance and wellbeing.

💡 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀:

🔄 Recognising that everyone is different – Stressors and working styles vary, so resilience strategies must be personalised.
✨ Small changes can have a big impact – Simple shifts in mindset, habits, and daily practices lead to meaningful long-term resilience.
⏳ Setting boundaries for rest is non-negotiable – Without intentional recovery, the cost of overwork accumulates, leading to persistent stress.
🔍 Self-reflection is key – Understanding what helps you personally thrive under pressure builds greater clarity and control over stress responses.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸:
📊 67% of workers experience at least one symptom of burnout each month (low energy, lack of effort, or disengagement). (APA)

🧠 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀:
Too often, our mindset keeps us stuck in survival mode. A powerful shift comes from identifying mental saboteurs—those thought patterns that fuel stress and self-doubt. This is where Positive Intelligence (PQ) transforms the game, helping leaders move from reactivity to resilience.

🎤 I love working with professionals and teams to build mental fitness, resilience, and leadership clarity. If your organisation is looking for ways to support your people in thriving under pressure, let’s connect.

What If Thriving Wasn’t Just a Goal - But a Choice?

Yesterday, I shared my why - the driving force behind Wellbeing by Design Australia and my mission to help individuals and organisations put wellbeing at the heart of how we live, work, and lead.

But thriving isn’t just about having a vision. It’s about making intentional choices - to lead with clarity, build mental fitness, and create a culture where resilience isn’t an afterthought—it’s the foundation for success.

💡 My year didn’t quite start as planned, but the upside? It gave me the time and space to reflect deeply and set powerful intentions for 2025.

This Year, I’m Committed To:
* Partnering with organisations to design thriving workplace cultures.
* Empowering teams to embed mental fitness and resilience.
* Supporting workplaces in transforming wellbeing into a strategic advantage.

On a Personal Note:
Thriving for me this year means consistency - focusing on the small, meaningful actions that create lasting impact. I’m embracing:
🌿 Mindfulness & Joy – Completing jigsaw puzzles (I’m already on my third 1,000 piece puzzle this month!).
🚶‍♀️ Movement & Nature – Daily walks and expanding my vegetable garden.
🎥 Growth & Learning – Exploring video creation, a skill I’m excited to share with you!

During my recent period of rest and reflection, I took the opportunity to dive into video creation, and I’m thrilled to share my first piece with you! 🎥Watch below to see how Wellbeing by Design Australia can support you in thriving in 2025.

💭 What does thriving look like for you this year?

Thriving in 2025: My Why, My Mission, Our Year Ahead

As we step into 2025, I’m reflecting on the journey so far and the “why” that fuels everything I do at Wellbeing by Design Australia.

At the heart of my work is a simple yet transformative vision:
💡 To redefine how we live, work, and lead by putting wellbeing at the core.

This mission is deeply personal to me. I’ve seen what happens when individuals, teams, and leaders step into their full potential—when they move beyond stress and burnout to resilience, confidence, and clarity. When workplaces don’t just function, but truly thrive.

That’s why my word for 2025 is: THRIVE.

To thrive means:
✅ Embracing challenges with confidence.
✅ Building the mental fitness to navigate uncertainty.
✅ Leading with authenticity, calm, and purpose.
✅ Creating a ripple effect—where individuals, teams, and entire organisations flourish together.

This year, I’m committed to helping more leaders and organisations:
✨ Build resilient, thriving teams.
✨ Foster calm, confident leadership that drives positive change.
✨ Embed wellbeing and mental fitness as a strategic advantage.

2025 is about thriving - not just surviving. Whether through coaching, mental fitness programs, or workplace wellbeing solutions, I’m here to help individuals and organisations put wellbeing at the heart of how we live, work, and lead.
