“Everyone has the potential for healthy, average and unhealthy attitudes and behaviours. With awareness and practice, you’ll be better able to maintain beneficial attitudes and behaviours.”
Life In My Hands delivers coaching programs designed to help individuals realise their full potential. Each program takes a holistic view, addressing relationships, career, health and finances together, recognising that each area influences the others.
At the core of the approach are two key pillars:
Together, these create both awareness and direction - helping individuals understand themselves while also learning how to consciously shape their life experience.
The philosophy is grounded in education and enablement. Rather than creating dependency, each program equips participants with practical tools, techniques and perspectives they can apply independently to create lasting change.
The Enneagram maps nine personality types. Click any node to explore your motivations, patterns and growth path.

The Enneagram is a personality framework that explains how individuals think, feel and behave. It is used to identify underlying patterns and motivations, helping participants better understand themselves and direct their attitudes and behaviours toward more preferred outcomes.
The initial session is a 90-minute deep dive into your primary and wing (secondary) Enneagram personality types. It provides practical insight into how you operate, why you respond the way you do and how to work with these patterns more effectively.
Each participant receives a practical set of materials including: a detailed Enneagram profile; a Daily Orientation Matrix; insights into relationship patterns; guidance across health, wellbeing and career; and practical tools for ongoing application.
All programs begin with an Enneagram profiling session, which forms the foundation for the coaching work. Many clients choose to start here before deciding whether to continue into a program.
Both programs include an Enneagram profiling session and 3 x 60-minute follow-up sessions. Essentials Plus includes email summaries following each session and the option to check-in between sessions.
Personal coaching is suited to individuals seeking greater clarity around how to achieve a more satisfying life experience. At its core, the work focuses on helping you understand how you are wired and what it looks like for you to operate at your best.
Life In My Hands combines Enneagram personality profiling with Law of Attraction principles to provide guidance tailored to the individual, rather than relying on generic coaching frameworks or broad motivational advice.
Psychologists are trained to diagnose and treat mental health conditions. Life In My Hands coaching is not clinical — the focus is on helping otherwise functional individuals better understand their underlying motivations and how those motivations shape attitudes and behaviours.
Life In My Hands offers business solutions grounded in the principles of organisational effectiveness.
Organisational effectiveness is the ability of a business to consistently execute its intent. It exists when strategy, structure, leadership, systems and ways of working are aligned and mutually reinforcing.
When these foundations are clear and fit for purpose, businesses reduce friction, improve accountability and create the conditions for sustainable performance.
A structured lens for diagnosing performance gaps and building sustainable business capability.
Business coaching and advisory support is suited to small and medium-sized businesses seeking to improve performance, address operational friction or strengthen leadership capability. Support is relevant both for established businesses looking to optimise and for start-ups seeking to build strong foundations from the outset.
A business health check is a structured review used to identify issues and opportunities across the business through the lens of organisational effectiveness. Findings are collated and used to inform an agreed set of priorities and actions.
Individual sessions are suited to targeted issues requiring focused input, where a broader project engagement is not necessary. This may include advisory support around specific decisions, leadership coaching, problem-solving or short-term operational guidance during periods of change.
Project engagements are suited to situations where issues are interconnected, systemic or require sustained attention across multiple areas of the business.
Where appropriate, support may extend into an ongoing advisory or operational role — including strategic advisory input, operational coordination or hands-on support similar to an outsourced Operations Manager or Business Solutions Manager.
Life In My Hands combines strategic advisory with practical operational support. Rather than delivering high-level recommendations alone, the focus is on helping businesses diagnose issues clearly, determine the right course of action and support implementation where required.
Enneagram Personality Types
Goal Setting
What's Included
These workshops are suited to individuals with a genuine interest in personality, behavioural patterns and the underlying motivations that shape human behaviour. They are designed for those seeking to deepen their understanding of themselves, gain greater insight into others and develop a broader perspective on the human condition.
No prior experience is required for EP1. It is designed as the foundational entry point into Enneagram education. EP2 and EP3 require prior completion of prerequisite workshops.
Participants receive workshop materials and practical reference tools to support both learning and ongoing application. EP1 also includes a copy of The Wisdom of the Enneagram by Don Richard Riso and Russ Hudson, and a set of Enneagram Personality Cards.
EP1 focuses on understanding the nine Enneagram personality types. EP2 teaches participants how to identify the Enneagram types of others using modern physiognomy techniques. EP3 is an advanced masterclass designed to refine and deepen live profiling capability.
Traditional goal setting approaches (such as S.M.A.R.T.) often assume that discipline and structure alone drive outcomes. In reality, these methods can fall short outside corporate or KPI-based environments, where mindset, motivation and emotional factors play a much greater role.
Workshops are designed for adults and are best suited to participants aged 18 years and over.
