Programs
Our world is characterised by change and uncertainty and these times, although stressful, also offer many opportunities for growth. Whether you are an individual seeking “more” or a team wanting to elevate their performance, I offer a range of programs that may suit your needs. My programs are based on my three decades of business experience, academic research and my practical intuitive approach.

InService of Holding Space
Holding space is a term used when creating a container of possibility created from your personal presence that has application in leadership, coaching, facilitation and a range of other contexts.
Holding space is what we do when we walk alongside a person or group on a journey through liminal space. We do this without making them feel inadequate, without trying to fix them and without trying to impact on outcome. We open our hearts, offer unconditional support and let go of judgement and control.
The ability to Hold Space means giving support that is free of judgement. It involves a conscious and deliberate choice to put aside our agenda, the need for our own specific outcome and the desire to give advice or “fix” a person or their situation. Creating an environment that is a safe space to express whatever is needed. Overall, holding space helps to create an environment where the person can feel heard, supported, and empowered, leading to personal growth and healing.
Holding Space in the Workplace
Leaders can use holding space in one-on-one meetings, team meetings, and other group settings to promote open communication, build trust, and encourage growth. By creating a safe and supportive environment, leaders can foster a positive workplace culture and enhance overall team performance.
Overall, holding space can bring several benefits to businesses, including improved employee engagement, better decision-making, increased productivity, enhanced creativity, stronger relationships, and improved conflict resolution.
Creating a space where others can lean into vulnerability while maintaining agency within the process can be a powerful thing. The person who is holding space helps set the tone for a kind, curious, and judgment-free interaction where the other person can be vulnerable, and like the term says “have space.”
I have developed a program for learning ways to hold space called InService of Holding Space.
InService of Holding Space is a mindfully curated process that creates space for curiosity, consideration and conversation that encourages self-honesty and vulnerability.
I am running a free pilot program for up to 6 people from May 2023. Your commitment will be attending fortnightly 2hr online workshops (6 sessions in total) and completing self paced learning activities between sessions.

Finding Your Way
Are you longing to get on a path that brings you joy, peace, financial comfort and most importantly a connection to your soul’s purpose – the reason why you are living in this current world?
Has the current reset and pause got you reflecting on how you live and work? Are you exploring how you might make a difference in the future?
Understanding the self is a key step in being able to take this journey. This self-exploration may come from personal development tools as well as taping into my insight to bring greater clarity. Once these initial steppingstones have been uncovered there may be a number of aspects that are blocking your way. They may be outdated beliefs, past patterning affecting you, the ego or any number of barriers preventing you reaching your full potential.
This is not a shampoo ad where something magical happens overnight. It is a process that continually unfolds as you do the work. Sometimes its hard, other times a joy. There are times where you want me to walk along beside you to help, coach and nudge. Other times you may want to go it alone, or in another’s company – that is OK, its your journey and I am here to help. In the Find Your Way sessions I will draw on my business acumen, leadership wisdom and psychic gifts to guide you through a process which clarifies your soul path and provides practical steps to get you on track. You can access my services as follows:
Find your Way Discovery session - this 1.5 hour session will provide clarity on your direction and a high level plan to assist your transformation ~ $185
Find Your Way Coaching Package - 4 x 1.5 hour sessions conducted over 6-8 weeks will clarify your path, identify and help you to remove blockages to living your soul’s calling and provide you with a practical implementation plan and support to get there ~ $700
Intentional Teams
Can your team create a bigger impact in the business and community it serves?
Is there opportunity to engage people in doing more purposeful and fulfilling work?
The Intentional Teams Program offers a quick and powerful intervention that awakens effective team performance. Unlike other team development programs, these workshops place the team within the organisational context and create the space for the team to contextualise its reason for existence. Team members engage in making sense of the relationship issues inherent in teamwork and to translate the team’s purpose into excellent execution.
The workshops are generally delivered with a concentrated two full days and then followed up with a four-hour workshop one month and two months after the initial workshop, however they can be tailored to suit your business need. Through using this process individual members and the team as a whole are awakened to the significance of their roles, resulting in activation around purpose and the unearthing of key commitments required for high performance.

My session with Melinda was not only enlightening but it also helped me to clarify an issue I was struggling with. Mel goes beyond the call of duty to help set you on the right path, she asks great questions and her insights are spot on.
