Testimonials

Susie Bunn
Founder Feng Shui Transformations
Former Director Craig Family Centre

Wasn't sure a coaching session session was what I needed. There were so many competing demands in my life. So many different challenges that in the end I felt stuck and unsure. Unsure of my potential, unsure which way to proceed, unsure of how to begin.

A couple of sessions with Richard helped me achieve the clarity I needed and to focus on what was important. In the end coaching was incredibly valuable and I would highly recommend it to all the sceptics like me

Damian DeZilva
CEO
National Patient Transport

Richard has an incredible talent of taking my concerns in a completely unbiased way and helps me to think through these perceptions to deliver better outcomes for our business and our leaders within my organisation. 

My role as a CEO has many challenges, Richard helps me to focus on the root cause of the issue at hand, he gives me clarity of mind which in turn allows me to deliver high quality decisions. 
Richard has been a wonderful resource, there are no predetermined outcomes or agendas which allows our sessions to flow smoothly and makes his approach genuine. Other coaches may use frameworks and case studies which make sessions tedious and does not allow for the individual to drill down into the issues at hand.

Richard is a great listener and has a genuine interest in supporting individuals to be the best version of themselves.

Sue McCarthy
Regional Administration Manager
Harvey Norman

I consider myself to be a hardworking, committed, high performer, who has had a lot of achievements in my career and life that I am truly proud of.

However, in recent years, I have constantly found myself feeling burnt out, stressed, not sleeping well, lacking in direction and generally just feeling unfulfilled in my life.

Richard is like a wingman in my corner helping me to realise my best self. With his support in the sessions, I have managed to dig deep to reveal my hierarchy of needs and what truly drives me. He has helped with strategies for me to not only survive and find balance in my life, but to thrive. It's so exciting finally getting to know the real me!!

The sessions I had with Richard have been a journey to discover my own potential, improve and achieve greater success in different aspects of life, including relationships and careers.

I possess the 'superpower' within me to overcome negative thoughts and reshape my thinking habits into a positive mindset.

This transformation enhances overall wellbeing and elevates an exciting, joyful, and fulfilled life.

AJ Barrett
Regional Manager
National Patient Transport

We all have powerful minds, but…over the last few months Richard has enabled me to expand and explore other areas of my mind that has guided me through some very tough times recently.

Richard's calmness and his listening skills enable him to break open avenues of thought and preparedness for your daily tasks and how to break down issues that arise and enable you to use your own powerful mind to get through these issues that we face not only in our work life but to bring them into everyday life.

He has always followed up with me and ensured I’m (still) on track. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with him.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do you love most about your job? I consider what I do to be a calling. What I love the most is seeing the transformation a client can have when they are open, willing and committed to their growth. I honour and acknowledge the courage and effort it takes for client's to leave their familiar zone and adopt new high performance habits. My clients know their best work is ahead of them despite the amazing achievements they've already created.
Why should I choose to work with you? You shouldn't choose me if you are not yet ready to install the mindsets and practices to get to your next level of performance. The work ahead of you is not easy if you truly want results. However, if you are ready, I will be in your corner relentlessly backing you. In return, I continually calibrate and hone my approach to get vivid clarity and compelling insights for my clients. I also offer additional resources including timeless Eastern wisdom for effective living and warrior ethos for mental toughness.
What can I expect if I've never been coached before? The first thing to understand is that you don't require anything other than being coachable. If you are ready to hold yourself accountable for the work between sessions, have a growth mindset and receptive for tough but meaningful questions, then you have what it takes. Next, the process itself is conversational yet systematic. You drive the agenda and intention of each meeting. I provide a space of non-judgement and empowerment so you can discover what's keeping you stuck and preventing you from getting the results you want. See my About page for an outline of the coaching model I've developed after hundreds of hours of coaching clients.
Do you have a coaching certification?

Yes. Coaching is an unregulated industry, but I am committed to maintaining the highest professional standards. I am accredited by the International Coaching Federation (ICF) as an Associate Certified Coach (ACC). The ICF is the "gold standard" for professional coaching worldwide, ensuring rigorous training, ethical practice, and an adherence to core competencies.

Additionally, I hold a Certificate IV in Life Coaching, further strengthening my expertise in guiding individuals toward their goals.

Do you provide your services online or in person?

Coaching is offered online via Zoom, phone conversation and in person. In person meetings are available by agreement around the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne.
