Jody Dontje Coaching

Jody is an absolute superstar ✨ I engaged Jody to deliver a series of five public speaking workshops over an action packed two days in Albury Wodonga.People laughed, cried and walked away feeling inspired and empowered to present with confidence. I can’t thank Jody enough for bringing 110% energy, passion and commitment to her workshops!!!

My desire to face a longstanding fear of public speaking was what connected me to Jody late 2019 where I joined her Public Speaking Mastery course. The significant results in such a short period of time opened my eyes to the power of vulnerability and a deeper desire to release more of my potential to achieve my dreams. And so, I have worked with Jody as my coach for 18 months, covering public speaking, high performance habits, healthy boundaries, and emotional fitness skills. When I consider the tremendous growth journey over the past 18 months with Jody, I am truly amazed and so proud of myself. Jody is passionate about developing high performance leaders and has a unique ability to help you break through barriers and release your true potential and to inject clarity and energy into every session. I highly recommend Jody Dontje. Thank you for your support!

A speech is most impactful when it comes from the heart.This is my takeaway after having been through Jody’s courses.I was at a career crossroad when I chanced upon the Speaking Like a Boss Masterclass.What a great name, I thought.So, I signed up without any hesitation.After all, enhancing my public speaking skills would be beneficial in my career development.Little did I know, this Masterclass is so much more than just speaking techniques.I dove deep and allowed myself to be vulnerable.I meditated on my “why” and explored my “voice”.Today, I’m on a new career path, one that gave me purpose.I am now surrounded and supported by a community that helps me grow as an AUTHENTIC speaker.Thank-you Jody!

This is more than just a public speaking course. Jody is committed to helping you transform in a very real and authentic way.So many courses are all about how to fake it till you make it" and superficial tips. Not Jody. Jody will go deep with you

After completing Jody's Authentic You Speaking Mastery course late last year, I have completely transformed my self belief through personal growth.I was recommended to Jody from my work mentor to improve my public speaking skills. I achieved so much more from her amazing course, attitude to life and zest to help others. I gained confidence in myself, my abilities and learned to value me.In fact, I have just enrolled in her Emotional Intimacy course to get further insight into her teaching methods.I cannot recommend Jody highly enough.

I have had the privilege of working with Jody in a variety of capacities, as a facilitator and also as a mindset coach in her very own Masterclasses. I enlisted Jody to run some workshop sessions at Federation University for our students a few years ago and was captivated with her professionalism, support, and warmth that she was able to show throughout her workshops. Jody can provide a welcoming environment that is wholly inclusive of individual needs and environment. Jody oozes enthusiasm and excitement and this is reflected in her coaching and presentation style. Jody supports students through her storytelling and life story to enable them the courage to own their own truth and story. Jody holds space for her audience to be vulnerable and allows individuals to flourish to their full capacity. As a facilitator, Jody captures the attention of the audience, engages in group discussion, and fills the audience with the knowledge that they can then take away and use. Jody is a skilled educator, facilitator, and coach of which I highly recommend for workshops, MC events, and keynote presentations.From my experience in attending Jody’s Masterclasses on public speaking, emotional intelligence and confidence are highly regarded. Jody is warm, inviting, and wholly inclusive. Whether it is a small or large group, Jody manages to make you feel welcomed and important. Jody provides an abundance of resources, experience, and knowledge that you can take away with you. As a participant in Jody’s sessions, I always felt seen, heard, and supported. Jody’s coaching techniques allow you to be vulnerable with the ability to see where there is room for growth and improvement. Jody holds space for you to work through anything that is holding you back and enables you to feel empowered going forward.I have no hesitation in recommending Jody’s Masterclasses especially if you are wanting to gain confidence, break out of the cycle of negativity, and improve your life!

Jody is hands down the best coach I have ever worked with. She has guided me on completely transforming my life. I started working with her because I had a big public speaking event coming up and I knew she would help me with that, but what I have gotten is so much more than that on such a deeper level. Her generosity and genuine care for her clients beams through on every single call. I am constantly blown away by how much she puts in to each session, whether it be the group sessions or the 1-1. After the 1-1 sessions, I am on a serious high that lasts for days after because of how much she believes in me and how good she makes me feel about myself. I couldn't recommend a better coach, she is seriously life changing and I am so incredibly grateful that I get to be coached by such an amazing, lovely, funny woman :)

I love working with Jody! I love how much she normalizes connecting with your emotions, finding deep connection with others, connecting with what it really is to be human. I have worked with a number of coaches and Jody is definitely my most favourite. She is the first coach I have worked with where I have felt validated for my goals and aspirations and journey without feeling like she is putting her own agendas onto me. I love her balance between gently guiding you and teaching you the tools you need to know while also pushing you to get things done and put events onto the calendar to grow your business. Working with Jody has been a really great decision!

Before meeting Jody, public speaking was always one of my deepest fears as I did not know how to effectively convey what I wanted to say and how to get past the fear that was blocking me.This was extremely evident from many of the public speaking situations I had come across in my daily life as I'm sure it is for many other people.My first interaction with Jody was at a speaking event she hosted and I was absolutely stunned at how amazingly she could connect with the entire room and myself, which I do not feel often. From that, I strongly felt she was someone that could help me take a step forward to where I wanted to be and so I worked up all my courage to approach her.After taking her Public Speaking Mastery course, Jody shared with us her countless techniques to allow us to confidently express ourselves and how to engage an audience. Now I truly feel confident with public speaking, which has helped me with meetings at work, connecting with people and my personal life.While public speaking was my main goal, Jody has done much more for me and changed my general life outlook of how I live every day. From redefining my values, allowing myself to be more vulnerable which I often repressed, being present with personal relationships, a new mentality and honestly so much more, it's something that has stuck with me ever since.In my mind, I picture my internal growth being blocked with multiple walls and at certain times in my life, I can sometimes feel when I have overcome a wall resulting in a positive change in myself. My unforgettable time with Jody was one of those important moments and I will continue to transform with her teachings guiding me for the future.Huge thanks for everything Jody!

Having the tools to understand and handle our own as well as other’s emotions is so important for living a healthy, purposeful life.The price we pay for not implementing these strategies in our life is really high, it is costing us our true self, our mental health, professional career and relationships.My journey with Jody in her Emotional Intimacy Course has been absolutely transforming.It has helped me unpack the layers in me, which I never thought existed. It has given me valuable tools to identify and express my boundaries and handle my emotions resourcefully that has helped me in personal and professional life.Jody is a perfect example of kindness and authenticity. She lives and breathes what she is teaching.Jody's openness, vulnerability and genuine passion for helping people discover their true potential is commendable.I'm glad to have found a mentor in Jody. I have seen a positive change in all aspects of my life and a massive shift in my personality with Jody's guidance and support.I totally vouch for Jody's expertise in guiding people in becoming their best self. Couldn't recommended her enough!
