Testimonials

"Studying with Wellness Coaching Australia has enabled me to change the way I work and also, to a certain extent, the way I live! I’ve found that the coaching skills that I now use with my clients are allowing me to connect with them better. They are achieving their goals more consistently by taking ownership of their reasons for change and by sticking to a plan which allow consistent, regular effort. I work in a gym setting, clinic and workplace environment predominantly with women over 40. As an Exercise Physiologist, combining my knowledge with this new approach in communication, my work is flourishing and I am reaping the benefits along with my clients, achieving success I had only dreamt of.”

Shaned Gaffney

"As a professional Nutritionist and Musculoskeletal Therapist I have witnessed numerous times the client’s inability to master sustainable change. The information I need to share with them is essential for their wellbeing, however if I cannot deliver it in a way that connects with their personal values and motivators then the results are often short lived, or don’t occur at all! How many times have you recommended an eating plan or stretching program and it isn’t correctly adopted by the client? I am seeing the benefits that coaching skills are bringing to my consultations and ultimately my clients' lives. This training has given me the tools to connect with the client’s strongest motivators and combine these with their treatment protocol - delivering better results!"
