Mind Blowing.

“I attended the Emotional Intimacy Course by Jody and I would say it was the absolute best decision. If I have to describe in one word, it was “Mind Blowing”.
 
This course was an eye opener and has changed my perspective about life. This course has helped me immensely. It was insightful and meaningful. The sessions were interactive, demonstrated with examples. Loved the breakout sessions, which gave me an opportunity to connect with other like-minded individuals committed to grow in life.

Jody gave us so many really important and valuable tips throughout this life-changing course.
 
The name Jody means energy to me ☺ She is authentic, genuine, an amazing coach and is truly inspirational."

Extraordinary Superpower.

“I've had the pleasure of working with Jody throughout almost the whole of 2019 and 2020. As an Event Producer at Academy Xi, I really appreciated Jody's approach with delivering her work, starting from an event organising point of view to presenting the content on the day.

Jody has an extraordinary superpower of attracting big crowds to her sessions, like a magnet! She is a very kind and empathetic person, always up for helping people and answering their questions after the event is over. No wonder we always had great feedback from the people who attended her events. Look forward to working on new projects with Jody this New Year!"

Testimonial

Effective at Work and Home.

“Being in a business and people management role at work, the core skillset I apply everyday is communication to achieve the most ideal outcome. The blind spot I had in this was considering how I work with the emotions of others and myself in these situations.

Prior to the Emotional Intimacy course with Jody, in situations in which high levels of emotions were involved, my handling of a situation was way less effective.

Now it is very different. I welcome all emotions in every situation and am even excited by it. Jody has added a whole new aspect to my communication strategies and tools, and it has made me so much more effective at work and at home.

As well as this, I have increased productivity, less stress, am more present at home, have healthier relationships, and feel like I am now living my best life."

Learn Jody's Story.

Namaste! Many years ago, one decision changed my life. I came from a background of severe racism and bullying, leading to suffocating identity issues. I was called “a waste of space” and a “waste of air”. I had to move 16 times before I turned 18 years of age due to my family’s financial difficulties.
 
With all of this challenge and without the right strategies to grow, I turned to materialism and drank way too much alcohol out partying to make me feel that I was enough. That I belonged...
 
I believed my life did not matter....
