Just kidding!
If you’re looking for a coach who’s
- doing their own work on themselves and comes to your sessions clear and clean and able to focus on you…
- highly professional and will keep the sessions focused on your changes, so that you don’t spend unnecessary time and money talking about nonsense…
- going to help you face up honestly to reality and will give you practical tools and ideas that you can use to change your reality, rather than giving you endless empty platitudes, hype and fluff and cheering you on to set your sights on ridiculous dreams that you’ll never make a reality…
- work is based in solid research, training and experience, and isn’t just some woo woo stuff they picked up on the Oprah show or in the movie, The Secret (I’m a qualified and experienced Social Worker with a Major in Psychology, a Certified Master Practitioner of NLP, a Certified Martha Beck Coach and I’ve been practicing and reading widely in the field of personal development and psychology for 10 years)…
- going to prioritize helping you get your needs and changes in the shortest time possible, rather than watching the clock and cutting you off or trying to get you to sign up for endless sessions and programs that will fund their lavish lifestyle…
Well then, I may just be the coach and Resource Miner that you’re looking for. Keep reading to find out more about what I can help you with and the different options for working together…
The most common sorts of changes that I help people with, through one-to-one Resource Mining Conversations include:
- Figuring out what’s important to you and what you want in life, so you can make major life decisions…
- Help with getting out of fear, stress and burnout or recovering from trauma, so you can restore the quality of your thinking.
- Identifying and dissolving your personal conscious and unconscious self-sabotaging patterns and limiting beliefs that have been holding you back from being the person you want to be.
- Help with recovering from paralyzing perfectionism and perpetual anxiety and people-pleasing, so you can be who you want to be.
- Support with negotiating your way through difficult changes that involve major identity overhaul, loss, grieving and uncertainty, so you can feel the way you want to feel, even through tough times.
- Help with understanding and overcoming the fear and internal resistance that is a natural part of creating and making your contribution and any major change process, so that resistance and fear don’t hold you back from creating and being what you love.
- Overcoming your fears and developing confidence to take action, so that you can move easily and go forward with creating and being what you love.
- Guidance and stimulation around creating a change strategy, deciding your next steps and finding appropriate external resources to assist you with the practical aspects of the changes you want to make and the creations you want to birth.
Sessions are 60 to 90mins long (in other words, they’re usually 60mins long, but if we’re kickin’ it and in the zone on something important, I’m not watching the clock… I want you to get your changes.) All session packages include email support between sessions. With the session packages, we’ll choose a schedule that suits you and the type of change you want to make – somewhere between weekly and monthly sessions.
Individual Sessions: $175 |
Package of 3 Sessions: $430 |
Package of 6 Sessions: $745 |
Package of 6 Resource Mining Sessions With 3 Months Bottom-line Bookclub Gold Membership: $625
This package is great if you’re wanting to do some intensive change-work over a 3 month period and make some serious headway on getting the results you want. We’ll schedule your coaching sessions at intervals that suit you and in between I’ll refer you to relevant Bottom-lines which you can use for further layered learning and self-coaching. The fact that you’ll be doing some active “homework” through the Bottom-line Bookclub means that our coaching sessions can be incredibly focused and productive. |
Session Packages include email access between calls.
Sessions for Couples:
A lot of the changes that we’re wanting to make have an impact on other people in our lives – people who are very important to us. And then you want to make sure that you’re working together on your changes. Couples sessions are suitable for you as a couple if you:
- Are in a committed relationship (this is not couples counseling and so it’s not suitable for couples who are unsure of their commitment to each other.)
- Have changes that you want to make that will have a significant impact on both of you.
- Have changes you want to make that require both partners’ full participation in order to make those changes a reality.
- Want to make changes in your relationship, lifestyle or family, and have some sense of what you don’t want, but aren’t yet clear on what you want instead, and would like some help with developing a clear vision together.
- Have a similar vision for changes you want to make, but different ideas about how to make those changes and sometimes feel like you might sometimes be holding each other back. You want some support with deciding your shared values and a strategy that would feel comfortable for both of you.
- You have a big change you want to make and, while you’re committed to those changes, there are a lot of fears and uncertainties. You’re looking for a thinking partner to help you both to manage your personal fears, stay accountable to the commitments to you make and think through a strategy and set of next steps that’ll get you there.
Some of the sorts of changes that I can help with include making the shift to location independent living, starting a business, moving to another country, and other significant lifestyle changes, to help you to experience, create and be more of what you love.
Couples sessions are typically 90 to 120mins long, they’re done over Skype, and we’d meet together, all three of us, for these sessions. Couples sessions include email support between sessions.
$285 for 1 Couple Session |
$999 for 4 Couple Sessions |

“Our sessions have been fun, rewarding and something that I look forward to on a weekly basis. I can’t wait to discover what great things the next few sessions will bring!”
Before working with Cath I was afraid. I was afraid of saying no to people. Afraid of change. You name it – I was afraid of it! My health was very poor and I was lost. Cath has taught me some fantastic techniques to get back in touch with my essential self which in turn has given me the confidence to pursue things that I had always dreamt of doing but had been too scared to undertake. Our sessions have been fun, rewarding and something that I look forward to on a weekly basis. I can’t wait to discover what great things the next few sessions will bring! Cath has become a great friend and is someone you instantly warm to. I would recommend sessions with Cath to anyone. I know no better guide through the cycle of change!

“I have worked with other life coaches before but they didn’t come close to covering all the real issues that we have or providing the shifts and mental clarity I got from working with Cath.”
I have had 5 sessions with Cath and cannot recommend her highly enough. She has the knack of getting right to the root of any issues and helps you to see things in a new and empowering light. I have looked forward to each session so much and each one has revealed something new and important. The work we did around identifying core values and making decisions based on these really personalized the process and will stay with me. I never felt rushed in a session and Cath gave me the feeling that she was focused on working with me 100%. She is energetic, sensitive, calm, purposeful, totally present and extremely professional.
I can honestly say that going through this process with Cath has been life changing and I will continue to use the tools she has given me. This doesn’t strike me as just a fleeting thing; you will learn how to deal with future issues yourself confidently and whilst focusing on your highest values. I have worked with other life coaches before but they didn’t come close to covering all the real issues that we have or providing the shifts and mental clarity I got from working with Cath. This has resulted in me feeling so much freer, peaceful and more confident.
If you are thinking about coaching do it – just make sure it’s with this woman!”

“I highly recommend Cath to anyone wanting to rediscover the true meaning and significance of their life. She coaches with energy, enthusiasm and love.”
I decided to see Cath for life coaching because I was feeling very stuck in my career and personal life. I just wasn’t finding life satisfying or enjoyable, and I wanted to reconnect with my strengths I had seen before. I felt I was not living up to my potential. Working with her through her “Success to Significance” program guided me into new areas of growth. Cath’s skill in teaching me how to break down my old, self-destructive stories, and turn them around to make them self-creative, has helped me find new ways of living and thinking. There are many life-changing take-home messages that I discovered with her guidance, and her consistently caring approach helped me through the initial pains of implementing change.
Cath’s coaching program has helped me make a fresh start, and the turn-around methods and insights I learned will continue to boost me along in this great adventure. I highly recommend Cath to anyone wanting to rediscover the true meaning and significance of their life. She coaches with energy, enthusiasm and love.

“I appreciate your understanding and logical approach to problems and our sessions have given me more confidence in my ability to affect change in my life.”
I found our discussions to be very helpful in clarifying the choices in my life and becoming aware of the hurdles I place in front of myself. The methods we discussed around decision making were particularly helpful to me. I appreciate your understanding and logical approach to problems and our sessions have given me more confidence in my ability to affect change in my life.

“There is absolutely nothing small or petite about her when this lady takes you by the hand, walks you through your own mind and gently introduces you to yourself. “
Not much bigger than an Umpalumpa’ is how Jeannie D described herself on Top Billing one night. A very apt description for Cath as well. However, you soon realize that the only time she is small is when you stand right next to her. There is absolutely nothing small or petite about her when this lady takes you by the hand, walks you through your own mind and gently introduces you to yourself. Her generous spirit and love of people is larger than life, as is her ability to use her knowledge effectively.
When I first met with her, I was as tense about life and everything else as a string on Nianelle’s guitar. The first session already brought about a measure of calm. After the second session I was able to get through the holidays more relaxed and had a lot more fun than I did in a long time. The works not finished yet, but the progress is steady and effective.
Though qualified as a Social Worker and HNLP Master Practitioner, I find her work to be very much on the same level as that of the Psychologists I have seen previously. Other social workers had to refer me to a Psychologist, where as Cath was able to deal with everything herself. A lady in our office who also used the service, commented that the previous Psychologist she saw did not give her half the clarity and understanding that she got from Cath in her very first session.
Another colleague had such an interesting journey and was so happy with the results that she referred her elderly mother to Cath. This ‘very old school lady’ has also had major results and wants to continue her sessions. Whether you are dealing with a minor upset or the biggest thing since 9/11, Cath’s caring professionalism can be counted on to help you deal with it effectively. Our heartfelt thanks goes to Cath and to OC2 management for putting her right on our doorstep.

“My confidence increased because I am more focused, I reach my goals and this also increase my image as people saw me in a different light and their attitude towards me changed. With my positive attitude and their positive attitude we get along much better.”
I learned to prioritize and to accept that it is not possible to do everything crossing my path. I now focus on my goal and don’t look for someone to blame. I am now handing over work to my colleagues in a structured manner and trusting them to complete the task given to them. I learned to assess deadlines and pressure crossing my path, and to set goals, focus and ask for help if needed. I now accept that it is okay to decline and say No to requests in my circle of influence. I am no longer getting involved in something that is not part of my area unless I really have the spare capacity or the knowledge to make a difference. I improved on my performance appraisal by 13% from June to December 2007. My confidence increased because I am more focused, I reach my goals and this also increase my image as people saw me in a different light and their attitude towards me changed. With my positive attitude and their positive attitude we get along much better. I got offered a different position at work which I don’t think I would even consider if I did not do this course. I get more compliments on my quality of work. My relationship with other parties in the company improved and with that we are reaching more of our goals and targets and so improving the live of our fellow colleagues even more. More people see the benefit of my knowledge now that my attitude has changed therefore our combined goals is now reached and not individual goals anymore. I have a more positive attitude. I also have my frustration and anger under control. This has improved my relationship with fellow colleagues and other business partners and therefore I get more support and less resistance. To get something done now is a pleasure and not a pain and I get more done. I learned to be patient. I found a balance between work and home. I still work overtime etc but it does not rule my life anymore. I spend more quality time with family and friends and my relationship with them has improved.

“The weirdest thing is that every problem / issue / secret that I had difficulties dealing with, she facilitated me in getting in touch with all the tools I already had to solve my problems.”
I heard about Cath in a meeting we had at work, but was not really interested because its at work and I was scared others would learn my deepest issues. Initially I signed up because I thought Okay cool I could treat this like my personal shrink and just dump a whole lot of issues on her and she would just be somebody I could chat to about surface level issues like money and love. I did not see myself as the person who needed counseling. Much to my surprise what I got out of the sessions were totally the opposite. The first time we talked I was very shielded and at first try to sugar coat my issues because I was scared of her going Dr. Phil on me and make me realize how messed up I really am.
Soon Cath made me feel right at ease and I felt comfortable enough to talk about those skeletons that we all try to forget about. She maintained confidentiality which is of utmost importance when talking about problems. The weirdest thing is that every problem / issue / secret that I had difficulties dealing with, she facilitated me in getting in touch with all the tools I already had to solve my problems. Since seeing her I have made changes to my life that I could not do before but now that she helped me realize my true worth and now the sky is the limits for me.
In short, Cath was very professional, never judged, gave me insight and a totally fresh and dynamic approach to problem solving that will rival the likes of Dr. Phil. I do believe that everybody can benefit from sessions with Cath as it was truly life changing for me. Even if you like me don’t believe that you have problems you will be surprised what lies beneath. Only if you deal with the underlying issues will you truly grow and Cath just leads you on that path. Try it YOU’LL LOVE IT.
