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, recognising that each area influences the others.

At the core of the approach are two key pillars:

  • Enneagram personality profiling - providing insight into behavioural patterns, motivations and natural tendencies
  • Law of Attraction principles - guiding how thoughts, focus and emotional alignment shape outcomes

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some common questions about personal coaching.

What is the Enneagram and how is it used in coaching?+
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.
What happens in the initial Enneagram profiling session?+
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.
What do I receive as part of the Enneagram profiling session?+
Each participant receives a practical set of materials designed to support both understanding and application. This typically includes:
  • A detailed Enneagram profile outlining key drivers, strengths and patterns
  • A Daily Orientation Matrix to help identify where you are at and how to move towards or maintain a more optimal state
  • Insights into relationship patterns and common dynamics
  • Guidance across areas such as health, wellbeing and career
  • Practical tools and techniques to support ongoing application
These materials are designed to be used both during the program and beyond!
Where do I start?+
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.
What is the difference between the Essentials and Essentials Plus programs?+
Both programs include an Enneagram profiling session and 3 x 60-minute follow-up sessions. Essentials Plus includes additional support in the form of: email summaries following each session; the option to check-in between sessions. It is suited to those who benefit from additional support, either for motivation or when navigating difficult circumstances.
Who would benefit from personal coaching?+
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. From that place, decision-making becomes clearer, relationships improve and setting and achieving meaningful goals becomes more natural.
How is this different from other coaching approaches?+
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. While the underlying philosophy draws on spiritual concepts, the coaching itself is highly practical — focused on day-to-day changes that improve perspective, foster a more empowered mindset and create greater clarity around decision-making, goal setting and how to move forward.
How is this different from seeing a psychologist?+
Psychologists are trained to diagnose and treat mental health conditions. Their work often focuses on identifying dysfunction, understanding its causes and helping individuals process or manage those challenges in day-to-day life. Life In My Hands coaching is not clinical. Rather than addressing dysfunction, the focus is on helping otherwise functional individuals better understand their underlying motivations and how those motivations shape attitudes and behaviours. From there, the work centres on improving perspective, enhancing day-to-day experience and helping individuals operate more effectively across key areas of life. For those experiencing trauma or clinical mental health concerns, working with a psychologist may be more appropriate. Coaching can complement psychological support but does not replace it.

Advisory & Consulting

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.

Organisational Effectiveness Framework
Services & Pricing
Initial Session $150 per hour + GST Details

A practical starting point for both established businesses and start-ups. The initial session is used to understand where the business is currently at, what it is seeking to achieve and the issues or opportunities requiring attention. Where appropriate, this may include a business health check to assess current performance, identify gaps and inform next steps. The session then helps determine the most appropriate way forward, whether that be targeted advisory support, a broader project engagement or more hands-on operational involvement.

Project Engagement $ tailored proposal Details

A structured program of work designed to address interconnected or systemic business issues. Project engagements apply organisational effectiveness principles to identify gaps, assess priorities and develop practical solutions aligned to business needs, risk appetite and budget. Each engagement is scoped individually, with a tailored proposal outlining scope, priorities, sequencing and timeframes. This approach supports more holistic, embedded solutions and is typically delivered in concert with the leadership team.

Individual Sessions $150 per hour + GST Details

Targeted advisory support for businesses requiring focused input without the need for a broader project engagement. This may involve support with specific questions, decisions or operational issues, short-term advisory assistance during evolving circumstances or coaching/upskilling of business owners and leaders. Individual sessions can also extend into ongoing advisory or operational support where appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some common questions about business advisory and operational support.

Who would benefit from business coaching or advisory support?+
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.
What is a business health check?+
A business health check is a structured review used to identify issues and opportunities across the business through the lens of organisational effectiveness. Using the Organisational Effectiveness framework as a guide, the review assesses the key pillars that influence business performance. This includes: documenting existing issues and risk exposures; reviewing the effectiveness of current processes and procedures; assessing leadership capability and team effectiveness; evaluating the work environment as a driver of collaboration and engagement. Findings are collated and used to inform an agreed set of priorities and actions.
When are individual sessions most appropriate?+
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.
When is a project engagement more appropriate?+
Project engagements are suited to situations where issues are interconnected, systemic or require sustained attention across multiple areas of the business. They are typically used where a more structured, holistic approach is required to diagnose issues, prioritise solutions and support implementation over time.
What does ongoing advisory or operational support look like?+
Where appropriate, support may extend beyond initial advisory or project work into an ongoing advisory or operational role. Depending on business needs, this may involve strategic advisory input, operational coordination or hands-on support in a capacity similar to an outsourced Operations Manager or Business Solutions Manager.
How is this different from traditional business consulting?+
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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some common questions about workshops and educational offerings.

Who are these workshops suited for?+
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.
Do I need prior experience to attend the Enneagram workshops?+

What do participants receive as part of the Enneagram workshops?+

EP1 also includes a copy of The Wisdom of the Enneagram: The Complete Guide to Psychological and Spiritual Growth for the Nine Personality Types by Don Richard Riso and Russ Hudson, and a set of Enneagram Personality Cards.

How is the Effective Goal Setting workshop different from traditional goal setting programs?+
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.
Are the workshops suitable for all ages?+
Workshops are designed for adults and are best suited to participants aged 18 years and over.
