Coaching Programs

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.

At the core of the approach are two key pillars:

  • Enneagram personality profiling — deep insight into behavioural patterns, motivations and natural tendencies
  • Law of Attraction principles — understanding how thoughts, focus and emotional alignment shape life experience

Together these create both awareness and direction. Each participant receives practical tools they can apply independently for lasting change.

Personal Coaching FAQs

Aaron’s coaching is direct, practical and grounded in genuine insight about who you are. Sessions are one-on-one and centred on your goals and challenges. Rather than generic frameworks or motivational scripts, Aaron uses the Enneagram — one of the most sophisticated personality systems available — combined with Law of Attraction principles to give you both self-knowledge and a clear sense of direction. Most clients describe it as the most useful conversation they’ve had about themselves.

The Enneagram is a personality typology system that maps nine distinct types, each defined by core motivations, fears and behavioural patterns. Unlike surface-level assessments, the Enneagram gets at the why behind how you think, feel and act — particularly under stress or pressure. Aaron uses the Enneagram as a foundation because it creates genuine self-awareness that translates into practical, lasting change. It is not used as a label, but as a lens through which to understand yourself and grow.

Sessions are delivered both in person and via video call, depending on your location and preference. Aaron works with clients locally and remotely across Australia. All programs are structured to work equally well in either format.

Program length varies by tier. The Initial Enneagram Profiling Session is a single 90-minute deep-dive. The Essentials Program includes multiple sessions over a structured period, typically spread across 6–8 weeks. The Essentials Plus Program extends this further. Specific session numbers and timelines are confirmed when you book. Aaron’s approach ensures momentum is maintained between sessions with summaries and support materials.

No — and in fact, arriving without a fixed idea of your type is often better. Aaron uses a skilled profiling process to identify your type through conversation and observation, rather than relying solely on self-report questionnaires. This means the identification is more accurate and more useful as a starting point for growth.

Life In My Hands coaching takes a holistic view of life — covering relationships, career and purpose, health and wellbeing, and financial clarity. These areas are addressed together, because change in one area inevitably affects the others. Rather than siloing your challenges, Aaron works with you to understand the underlying patterns driving your experience across all of them.

Aaron is the sole practitioner — every client works directly with him from start to finish. There are no juniors, no handoffs and no template approaches. The depth of the Enneagram work, combined with Aaron’s corporate and change management background, means clients get both psychological depth and practical, grounded guidance. It’s a rare combination.

The best first step is simply to get in touch. Use the contact form below, call or email Aaron directly to have a brief conversation about what you’re looking for. From there, Aaron will recommend the most appropriate starting point — whether that’s the Initial Enneagram Profiling Session or one of the broader programs. There’s no pressure and no obligation in that first conversation.

Advisory & Consulting

$150 / hr + GST — scoped individually

Life In My Hands offers business solutions grounded in the principles of organisational effectiveness — 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, businesses reduce friction, improve accountability and create the conditions for sustainable performance.

Organisational Effectiveness Framework
  • Session-based input for specific challenges
  • Program-based advisory for systemic change
  • Ongoing operational / embedded advisory role
  • Enneagram-informed people strategy
  • Leadership coaching & team effectiveness
  • Organisational culture & performance review
How Engagements Work

Engagements typically begin with an initial advisory session to clarify the issue, understand context and determine the right path forward.

Pathway 1: Session-Based Advisory
Suited to specific questions, decisions or issues where focused input is required — without the need for a broader program of work.
Pathway 2: Program-Based Advisory
For interconnected, systemic or sustained issues. Life In My Hands prepares a tailored proposal covering scope, priorities, sequencing and timeframes.
Ongoing Operational / Support Role
As needs develop, engagements may extend into an ongoing role — supporting implementation, embedding and refinement over time.

Business Solutions FAQs

Aaron works with businesses of all sizes — from small owner-operated businesses through to larger organisations and corporate teams. The common thread is a need for clarity: whether that’s understanding what’s driving friction, how to improve accountability, or how to better align leadership and culture with the business’s strategic intent. Life In My Hands has worked with clients across professional services, transport, retail and creative industries.

An initial session is a focused conversation to clarify the issue, understand the context and determine the right path forward. It’s not a sales pitch — it’s a working session. Aaron will ask direct questions, listen carefully, and by the end you’ll have a much clearer picture of what’s actually going on and what the options are. From there, you can decide whether to proceed with further engagement.

Advisory work is scoped individually based on the nature and scale of the issue. The hourly rate is $150 + GST. For broader programs of work, Aaron prepares a tailored proposal covering scope, priorities, sequencing and timeframes — so you know exactly what you’re getting and what it will cost. There are no surprises.

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, businesses reduce friction, improve accountability and create the conditions for sustainable performance. When they’re out of alignment, even talented, motivated people struggle to produce consistent results. Aaron’s advisory work focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of that misalignment.

Yes. Leadership coaching and team effectiveness work is a core part of what Life In My Hands offers. Aaron can work with individual leaders or with a leadership team, using Enneagram-informed profiling and coaching to improve self-awareness, communication and collective performance. This work is tailored to the specific dynamics and goals of your team.

No. Engagements begin with an initial session, and both parties decide from there what the right next step is. Some clients need a single advisory session; others move into broader programs or ongoing support roles. The structure always follows the need, not the other way around.

Workshop FAQs

The Enneagram workshops are designed for anyone with a genuine interest in understanding themselves and others more deeply — whether for personal growth, professional development or to build skills as a practitioner or coach. The goal-setting workshop is open to anyone ready to approach their goals with more clarity and intention. Participants 17 and over are welcome.

No prior knowledge is required for EP1. It is the entry point into the Enneagram education pathway and is fully self-contained. You will leave with a thorough understanding of all nine personality types, a copy of The Wisdom of the Enneagram by Riso & Hudson, and a set of Enneagram Personality Cards.

Physiognomy is the practice of reading personality traits from physical characteristics and non-verbal cues — facial structure, posture, gestures and expression. In the context of Enneagram profiling, it allows a skilled practitioner to identify someone’s type through observation, rather than relying solely on what a person says about themselves. This makes profiling more accurate and more useful. EP2 teaches this skill to participants who have completed EP1.
