EOFY Isn't Just for Spreadsheets — It's Your Mid-Year Life Review
We race to wrap up tax and performance reviews at EOFY… but when was the last time you reviewed your life?

This is your invitation to pause, reset, and run your own personal life review - performance aside.
We’re talking energy & wellbeing, relationships, life direction or that goal you’ve been postponing for months that's seeming out of reach.

I’ve even included a free life scorecard based on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs to help you check in and reflect.

If you’re feeling stuck, tired or “just coping” — EOFY is the perfect checkpoint to realign before the second half of the year kicks off.

You've read the self-help books.
You've taken the personal development courses.
You've consumed the motivational podcasts.

But here's the truth: Growth doesn’t happen from knowledge alone. It happens when you’re held accountable—and supported to take bold, aligned action.

This is where life coaching accelerates your transformation.

If you're feeling stuck—like you're collecting insights but not getting results—it might be time to step out of the self-help loop and into real progress.

Ever wonder how often you really check your phone?
My number was over 700 times a week.
I didn’t go cold turkey — but I changed everything.
Here’s how (and why it matters).

Feeling stuck, foggy, or just plain tired of chasing goals that no longer resonate?
You're not alone — especially as we edge closer to a new financial year.

In this post, I’m sharing 10 powerful life coaching questions that can help you reconnect with what actually matters — not what you should want. Woven throughout are three supportive tools and templates to help you move from reflection to aligned action.

These aren’t surface-level prompts — they’re designed to cut through the noise and give you space to rethink the goals you’re setting, why you’re setting them, and how you actually want to feel moving forward.

From clients choosing more family time over job promotions, to simple Friday rituals that transform a whole week — the real shift happens when you ask the right questions.

At a recent event, someone asked me:
“No offence, but aren’t you a little young to be a life coach?”
Let’s call him Fred.

It’s a question I’ve heard before—just worded differently.
But it’s never really about me.
It’s about the rules we’ve been taught to follow.

What if age isn’t the qualifier for wisdom or readiness?
What if you didn’t need to wait for permission to live life on your terms?

I’ve lived a few lifetimes already—and I’m just getting started.

Discover why believing you should do everything alone keeps you stuck, and how life coaching can help you find clarity, courage, and meaningful change.
