FROM OUR COACHING CLIENTS

Fiorella confidence coaching client

Fiorella Cotrina - Miami, USA

Working with Jodie was a transformative experience. When I came to Jodie, I had switched careers in my forties and was having a difficult time adjusting to new work culture. I felt I lacked experience in a lot of areas and wasn’t sure if this move had been the right one. During our coaching, Jodie helped me clarify what my goals were and really see what I brought to the table. By the time we were done, I felt in charge of my life again and gained the confidence to really tackle demands of my job with confidence, something that was recognized by my work. Best of all, Jodie is such an awesome woman to talk to! She brings humor and warmth to a coaching relationship that really helped me feel at ease. I loved the whole process and I highly recommend Jodie as a coach and mentor. She really, genuinely will have your back!

'I worked with Jodie for 8 sessions over about 4 months to refine my career goals. Jodie helped me rediscover my passion for science and plan small achievable steps to incorporate science work into my busy week… around caring for my three kids, cooking dinner every single night (we have lots of food sensitivities) and making sure I still had that important time with family and friends. Jodie’s sessions gave my accountability, a boost of inspiration and a holistic plan for keeping my energy high while making these changes. One year on, I am working hours that suit me as a contractor for a large organisation and have continued to make improvements in my health and wellbeing, thanks to Jodie’s wise and practical support.'

'Jodie is an amazing coach and I would highly recommend her! I hired her when I was contemplating a career change and looking for a new job. Jodie is very action oriented and brings great positive energy to each of our sessions. In the end, she helped me achieve my goal and I was able to find a new job. I would definitely hire her again! .'

Natalia confidence coaching client

Natalia - No Nasties Kids Makeup - QLD, Australia

'Jodie is an organiser, motivator, coach, cheerleader and wealth of knowledge wrapped up in a gorgeous, tall woman wearing red shoes! I was ready to go into a business (or several) and really branch out on my own but had no idea which one of my interests I should follow. Jodie was pivotal in assisting me to gain clarity around that and then map out the steps with me, as they evolved, each week, until my business launch. Jodie is hands on, full of techniques to assist with the weekly struggles of launching a business and perfectly capable of pulling you into line (in a nice way) when needed. There were times where I thought, this is all just too hard and could have walked away but after a meeting with Jodie, I was back on track, guns blazing, feeling organised and energised. I can’t recommend Jodie highly enough! My business has taken off and I am moving into new and exciting business ventures. I can’t wait for my next catch up!'

Bec -Los Angeles, USA

'One of the areas I wanted to focus on with Jodie is an ongoing struggle with decision making and confidence. Jodie was so relatable, and she really listened to understand me. She had some great practical advice on how I can look to change my mindset - for the positive, but not in "bumper sticker talk". I felt she was really listening to me, and was able to really help me shift my mindset out of a rut I had built for myself. After our coacing, I really had a clear way forward and a plan that made me feel proud and capable. Jodie was incredible and this has been a life changing experience. If you are looking for someone who is real, refreshingly honest, and practical, give Jodie a call. You never know what you will get out of it - but it will absolutely be positive.'

Janelle Mindset reset coaching client

Janelle Keys - Janelle Keys Photography

'Thank you so much Jodie for helping me readjust my mindset and giving me some clarity. I've been running my business by myself for so long, it's easy to let circumstances around me start to influence my thoughts and decision making. But just one hour on the phone with you really helped to give me clarity. Having an outside perspective than can cut through the emotion and just address the facts was just what I needed to get me back on track. And even though the issue I needed help with didn't work out the way I intended, your consultation along with your book, gave me the tools to learn from that experience, have resilience and keep going. I even share your confidence techniques with my teenage kids! So thanks again - it's so great to have someone to call on when I need advice or a pep talk!!'

Amelia Mindset coaching client

Amelia Parkinson - The Wise Hippo

'The mindset session with Jodie really helped me to look at the language that I use in my head everyday and how it is really unhelpful to achieve where I want to go. After our session I have started to use different language and some of the awesome little tricks she showed me, and am feeling much better about the track I am on and am much more focused.'

Susanna mindset coaching client

Susana Heiskanen - CEO Tuutu.com.au

'I had my Mindset Reset Session with Jodie and it was very helpful to get myself re-organised and focused on what I needed to do to get my job done. She gave valuable feedback and as an objective person was able to look at the bigger picture and give insight on what was happening.'

'When I met Jodie I was an emotional wreck after the separation from my husband. Jodie helped me bring some direction back in my life. Over the 12 weeks we worked towards 3 major goals I wanted to achieve, breaking these down from what seemed impossible to smaller achievable pieces, enabling me to reach the final goals. Jodie was my tower of strength.'

‘Change is hard, but not as suffocating as stagnation. Jodie was my mirror when I truly needed one. She was my strength when my own was lost. She gave me hope when I lost my way. My life today is richer than it has ever been. It took me a while to invest in myself, but working with Jodie to achieve my goals was more valuable than I ever imagined possible.’

'Fourteen weeks ago I stepped out of my comfort zone and approached Jodie to assist me with what I thought was a lack of confidence. Each day since, my ability to talk to people and become (or actually realise that I already am) a confident business woman has been enlightening and satisfying. I thank Jodie for helping me discover all the power and strength I had on the inside.'

We had the pleasure of inviting Jodie to host her “Crash Course in Confidence” seminar to 100 staff members. Jodie gave a fantastic presentation which left everyone in the room feeling confident and motivated! She provided great analogies and anecdotes, and incorporated humour into her presentation perfectly.

We have had wonderful feedback from all who attended, with particularly positive responses to her
practical ideas and methods to improve our confidence, as well as understanding the differences
between men and women in their approach to career development.

Jodie reminded everyone that confidence is an achievable goal and delivered this message in a funny, engaging way.

WOW! That word is the only way to describe Jodie Bruce-Clarke’s Confidence Workshop!

It was truly the best workshop I have ever been to. There were 14 of us at her workshop in September, and every single one of us was riveted for the entire 1.5 hours. She used humour in such a way that I found myself belly laughing more than I have in years, that in itself was so healing and uplifting.

The points she taught us on confidence were so practical and easy to apply, and she used some really bold and very relevant examples to drive the point home. I feel like she shook the toxic thinking out of us all within only a short amount of time. The amount of interaction she encouraged was perfect, and everyone was able to ask questions as they wanted to.

Jodie is very likeable, dynamic, knowledgeable, hilarious, and encouraging. In the 2 weeks since the workshop, every attendee has spoken about how much it has impacted them, and about all the things they are doing now because they are using the skills from Jodie’s workshop now. And, I’m pretty sure everyone there bought her book because they wanted more of what she taught us that night.

I would recommend Jodie’s workshops to anyone, and I can hardly wait to have her back to our group next year!

At Mums With Hustle we are passionate about casting the spotlight on industry experts, in order to best serve our online community of over 20,000 mumpreneurs.

I’ve had the pleasure of having Jodie Bruce Clarke on our podcast as a guest, and she blew me away with her knowledge and delivery on all things confidence! I knew that I had to have her be a guest speaker at one of our Mums With Hustle Meet and Eat events.

I asked Jodie to speak about CONFIDENCE to a tribe of savvy bizmums and boy, did she deliver. She certainly brings her A-Game and adds massive value to any gig she takes on. As a business owner, she made ME feel confident at every step in the lead up to our event. She took time to get to know our tribe online, prior to the event, so that she could serve them her best on the day.  Jodie absolutely nailed it!

She arrived early to set up a very fab looking and professional space for herself and once the guests arrived, Jodie was out there, mixing and mingling. Once she started her talk, the room was buzzing, her content was fab and so clearly presented. She kept the tribe of hustling bizmums inspired and engaged. She interacts with her audience, rather than just talking at them. Jodie is the real deal. Everything about her is authentic. She’s clearly living her passion and purpose!

It was a lively, informative, entertaining and interactive presentation, based on things that affect confidence levels and also strategies to combat them.

Jodie was fantastic.  Her enthusiasm and passion for the subject made it an extremely effective presentation that all attendees really enjoyed and are still talking about! Her presentation was infectious and relevant.

We all got lots out of it and, as a result, the attendees can’t wait to have her back!

We have had the pleasure of having Jodie present at the Linking Ladies events on several occasions in 2016 & 2017.  Her energy, passion and witty attitude towards life and business is refreshing.

Jodie is exceptional at showing women they can achieve their dreams and with the right attitude and mindset, anything is possible. Her kind heart and willingness to share valuable content has helped many women in our network grown in the last 12 months and we can’t wait to have her back soon!

Rise Women are confident women leading by example and showing us it can be done!

Jodie is a great public speaker and had the audience captivated from beginning to end.

I had a project with tight timelines, had to depend on others to achieve these deadlines and I thought it was impossible.  I contacted Jodie to present a workshop session at our 2 day project planning conference and it was amazing!

Jodie presented a very informative and entertaining workshop for the members of my team.  I got motivation, my team got the motivation and we got the project finished – early!

I work with homeless and disadvantaged young girls ranging from 16-24 years.  Jodie created confidence workshops to cater specifically for these girls and the response has been fantastic!

Not only do we see the girls return each week, which is often unusual for such a transient group, but each week the program invites more and more interest amongst new girls who have heard about the program.

Jodie is an inspiration and a fantastic role model for these girls.

Jodie came and spoke at our Bump Graduation.  Our Bump mentoring program is for young pregnant and parenting girls aged between 13 and 23.

Jodie came and gave an exceptional presentation about the skills that the girls are able to learn to be able to have confidence within their lives as mothers and successful members of society.

Jodie captivated the room and was amazing.  All the girls were able to get so much out of the presentation and we were thrilled to be able to have her.

We look forward to continuing our relationship with Jodie and RiSe Women.

Jodie’s ‘Confidence is the Best Deodorant’ was a dynamic and action-packed presentation which really caught the imagination of our conference delegates! Her humorous stories, animated delivery and truthful, practical message made her presentation interesting and very ‘watchable’, and our delegates would have loved to listen to her all day!

I found Jodie to be a very capable and dedicated presenter.

Our delegates left the conference inspired, in particular by Jodie’s presentation and originality, and they can’t wait to have her back in the Shoalhaven.”

Jodie presented to our office staff on the subject of ‘Confidence is the Best Deodorant’.

Jodie’s presentation was concise, informative and interactive – without the use of Powerpoint. With the over-use of Powerpoint nowadays, it was refreshing to see a speaker enthusiastically engage the audience into the presentation.

Jodie was energetic and obviously passionate about the subject matter which made the session truly effective and credible.

I asked Jodie to present to my clients about being ‘confident’ in all that they do. Her presentation was excellent, she made it fun and entertaining as well as giving them tools to use not only in their careers but in their everyday lives to help them achieve their goals.

The tools were simple and achievable.

She is a true inspiration!!!!
