“Years of coaching and research prove that issues compound.
This Leads to increased pressure and overwhelm.”
For example:
✓ Being time poor makes you stressed.

✓ Lower resilience reduces communication quality.
✓ Poor internal and external communication impacts wellbeing.
✓ Compromised wellbeing damages your leadership ability.
We have seen first hand, businesses collapse due to poor leadership, serious conflicts, and costly time mistakes. *Stress costs Australian business $39 billion in lost productivity.
In 2019, the World Health Organization classified burnout as an occupational phenomenon resulting from chronic workplace stress. Since COVID, this has escalated dramatically.
The research doesn’t lie.
In a recent study, conducted in 2021, it was found in the workforce 26% of deadlines are being missed each week. The most common cause is unrealistic expectations (35%). A lack of clarity caused by unclear processes (27%) is also a top driver. Nearly half (46%) of respondents cite being overworked as a key factor contributing to burnout, with one in three (29%) feeling overworked from a lack of clarity on tasks and roles.
Conflicts and ineffective communication also cheat business of valuable time.
In the CPPP Global Human Capital report it was found that each employee spends on average 1 day per month dealing with conflict.
In a study done in June, 2022, Deloite found that one out of executives are constantly struggling with fatigue and poor mental health and are ready to quit.
The ‘big resignation’, ‘quiet quitting’ etc are all side effects of the rising epidemic of stress, tensions, conflict and mis managed wellbeing.
Those leaders who can not only survive but thrive in these challenging environments compound their knowledge, wisdom and learnings.
Sourcing current methodologies founded in science, research and real life case studies, we’ve encapsulated a model of W.I.S.D.O.M ensure leaders can increase resilence, roll with punches, adapt to challenges and transform their stress into a source of strength, moving from Chaos to Calm to truly shine.

Testimonials
“I was experiencing an enormous amount of overwhelm working in a leadership position for a Not-for-Profit organization, I have my own business, plus I have a life and husband. I had very little personal time for myself. I wanted to be more proactive, manage my time a lot better at work and to achieve my tasks.
I wanted to prioritize things and get a bit of life back for myself, to get clear on my goals and actively pursue them.
My main pain point was emails. I was getting like 60 plus emails a day and it was literally just taken over my life. I’d almost dread getting up and opening up the computer to see what was there and what I had to do. It took my attention away from all the other tasks that I had to do in the team.
Implementing these amazing strategies led to me being able to save up to 10 hours a week. It just blows my mind; that’s over 5000 hours in a year! For that alone, it was absolute gold.
Being clear on my Vision, my mission, my purpose, was so valuable because I could very quickly and easily make decisions about what to say yes to, and how to prioritize. I really also wanted to understand where my time was going and when you understand that you can actually make change.
Within six months, I’d moved from procrastination into purpose and I feel like I’m a bit of a time tamer extraordinaire now. I really hope that other people can get the same benefits that I have.
I think anything you can think of in business that you want support with, there is something in this c for you and I just couldn’t recommend it highly enough.”
“Sometimes I’d be like a hamster on the hamster wheel, just running really fast, hoping to get somewhere by doing that.
The program has been transformational for my business and fundamentally it’s been transformational, for my wellbeing.
I’ve now got more order in in the chaos that was my life and my schedule.
So when I feel like ‘argh, where to next?’ I know that I can come back to her systems to get laser focus to create time for that laser focus, and then to act on it. “
“Barbara helped me slow down, sort my priorities, and set goals for my business, and real-life goals for myself. Turning the spotlight on myself was really hard because I love to help other people, but we got through the fog and I have a clearer idea of what I want to do, and where I am going.
The 12-month program was flexible and full of non-judgemental support and direction. Barbara provided me regular opportunities to talk, tackle difficult elements of my business, along with introducing me to a range of digital tools. Most importantly I am much more confident about my systems and the services I offer to clients, and my professional development. So yes, without hesitation I would definitely recommend having a chat with Barbara!”
“Barbara has the capacity to explain complex topics simply. Always appreciate her flexibility and understanding of businesses diverse needs. She has a wealth of knowledge that converts to practical outputs.”
“When the going gets tough, we’ll fall back to old habits, what’s comfortable and what’s easy. When I get into that position of feeling overwhelmed with things, the theory just goes out of my head and I fall back to unhelpful practices. When you have to work hard at something, whether that is time management or watching what you eat or exercising regularly, then it’s just trying to get back on that wagon
I didn’t feel comfortable asking somebody at work, or my supervisor or colleague, because of that sense of being judged, looked down on or that I couldn’t achieve things at work.
Maybe you feel like you’re starting from scratch, or maybe you’ve talked with people about what works for them, but you’ve tried those techniques and it doesn’t work for you. You’re not somebody who can get up at 4:00 o’clock in the morning to beat everyone else, to get things done. It’s reassuring to know that there’s realistic strategies that you can discuss and try, yet still feel that sense of success, accountability and without a sense of judgment. That’s what I found really valuable. I’ve learned a lot about myself, and I’ve learned new strategies without feeling like a failure or without feeling any sense of judgment, I found it to be very helpful process. I feel that I’m in a better place to achieve things, to identify the priorities and to also be kinder to myself, when things get in the way. “
