In presenting Fiona with a challenging scenario I was able to receive immense value from my session in just a single meeting. It was clear from the outset that from the structured conversation to the tools provided to me, that I was gaining incredible benefit from a highly capable coach. During the session Fiona clearly understood the challenges I arrived with and worked swiftly to dissect to the core of the matter, before empowering me with a way forward that I felt confident would deliver an outcome I had hoped to achieve.

I am the founder of CodED. I run online courses where I teach children software coding and help them develop essential life skills. I had the pleasure of working with Fiona.

I would highly recommend Fiona. I came to her with a fear of mice and through one conversational hypnosis session, I had my first breakthrough of being able to watch videos on mice, which I'd thought would never be possible for me!This may seem insignificant to some but this is a big deal for me. Thanks Fiona for giving me the tools to further support me Sam Kerrisk"

Fiona seeks down and ruthlessly destroys excuses!She does so with care and sensitivity for her clients. Only consult with her because you wanted to be better at achieving your goals... if you do, you WILL see results.I had unsuccessfully sought to lose weight for several years on medical advice... after spending time with Fiona (during which she confronted me directly about my lack of action) I have been able to lose 10 kg in around 2 months and have set goals towards further losses.My health is already noticeably improved and I thank Fiona for her input.Fiona is an insightful, intelligent, caring professional with a cheeky sense of humour whom I would recommend and highly endorse to anyone.

I was referred to Fiona last year. At that time I had reached the point of giving up on finding a professional who was able to support and understand me, but then I met Fiona.Before meeting Fiona, I found it hard to get out of bed every day. I had given up on trying to build a career and could no longer found happiness in activities that had been tainted by horrible past memories. I was also struggling with understanding my own, and others’, emotions.During my first coaching program with Fiona, I was so easily able to come out of my shell and find comfort in discussing everything with Fiona. Working through exercises, between-session tasks, and having someone explain to me how your brain functions, helped me understand my issues, emotions, and mental health better.As I am going into my second coaching program, I feel more confident, I am positive about my future, and I’ve completely changed my mindset. I used to think I was “unfixable”. Now I find it easy to get out of bed and begin my day. Micro-stresses that used to take up a lot of mental energy, are now given the proportion of energy that they are due, and often that is none! Rather than reacting emotionally, I remain calm when the unexpected happens. Things and people that used to really upset me no longer bother me.If you feel you are too far down in a hole or there is no one who can help you, I would highly recommend you have a chat with Fiona. No judgement is ever received from her, and she will always lend an open ear. You can tell by speaking to her how passionate she is about helping people and that she wants the best for all her clients.- Gabi Pickett

Fiona has the gift of making things simple to understand and do step-by-step. For example, she explained a system to organise my time for maximum results. I then set up a schedule that made the day flow by and also be very productive. If you are looking for a coach to make it fun while keeping you accountable, Fiona is an excellent motivator to work with.

I was feeling really unmotivated and lost after having a tough year with studies but Fiona helped me to learn to be positive and keep a good balance in my life. I’ve developed so many new habits like frequent exercise and positive mindset activities. Fiona’s advice and ability to solve problems is a priceless tool everyone can use to improve themselves or aspects of their lives.

My name is Kathleen and I am the Founder and Creative Overlord of By Ninja, an award-winning brand studio based in Meanjin (Brisbane) Australia.I first met Fiona at a networking event, and we caught up about a week later to learn more about what each other do. At the time, I knew something within myself wasn’t going so well. We got chatting, and as Fiona started describing the types of people she helps and some of the trigger words they express, a game of ‘bingo’ was happening in my head (I got bingo). I genuinely loved what I do, but I was exhausted. I was not coping with the pressure I’d put on myself to be everything to everyone (but myself). I was frustrated, hyper emotional, barely sleeping and constantly injuring myself at sport.During my first session with Fiona we explored a ‘sleep hack’. That night, I had one of the best sleeps I’d had in a very long time. Sleeping better immediately helped shift my mindset into a more effective space.In a nutshell, that’s how Fiona works, it’s what she does — she empowers you with the knowledge and tools you need to conquer your ‘thing’, and deliver the greatest, long term impact.Six months on and I am so proud of the version of ‘me’ that I have grown into. I have an understanding of what drives me and why. I am more balanced. I sleep. I am more effective overall — a better founder, creative, mentor, friend, daughter, and partner. I have a clearer vision of my future, and what exactly is driving the legacy that I want to build. I am maturing into the version of myself that will actually enable me to achieve my goals, sustainably.
