Professional Career & Leadership Coaching Services in Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane & Australia Wide

What is career coaching, and how is it different from mentoring or counselling?

Career coaching is a structured process that helps you gain clarity, confidence and direction in your career. We focus on where you are now, where you want to go, and the practical steps to bridge that gap.

Mentoring is usually advice from someone in your industry who has walked a similar path. Counselling is more focused on mental health and processing past experiences. Career coaching sits between these. It is future-focused, outcome-driven, and grounded in clear goals and accountability, rather than informal advice or therapy.

At Grow Coaching, you get a clear roadmap, tools you can reuse and a coach in your corner, not just one-off tips.

Who is Grow Coaching best suited for?

Grow Coaching is designed for mid-career professionals and managers across Australia who feel stuck, burned out or ready for their next move but are not sure what that move should be.

Most clients fall into one of three groups

• You are successful on paper, but feel flat or misaligned in your current role

• You want to step into leadership, but doubt your confidence or presence

• You are actively exploring a change and need a clear, realistic plan

If you recognise yourself in any of those, career coaching can give you the clarity and momentum you are missing.

What happens in the free thirty-minute career clarity call?
The clarity call is a short, focused session on Zoom, not a sales pitch. We look at three things

• Where are you right now, and what feels most frustrating

• What you actually want more of and less of in your career

• The main blockers that are keeping you stuck

You leave with a simple written summary of the themes we identified and a suggested next step. From there, you can decide whether to continue with a coaching program or take that insight and work with it yourself.

How do ongoing career coaching sessions work?
Ongoing coaching is delivered one-to-one online, usually through Zoom, so you can join from Perth or anywhere in Australia.

Each session lasts around forty to sixty minutes and follows a clear structure

• Review what has shifted since the last session

• Work through one or two key challenges in depth

• Agree on specific actions to take before we meet again

Between sessions, you have light check-ins for support and accountability. Most clients begin to feel a shift within the first week and see clear progress within the first thirty days.

How quickly will I see results, and what outcomes can I expect?
Many clients report a noticeable shift in clarity after the first session. Within thirty days, most are

• Clearer about what they want and what they will no longer tolerate

• Having better conversations with their manager or recruiter

• Taking deliberate action instead of reacting from burnout or fear

Longer-term outcomes vary. For some, it is a promotion or an internal move. For others, it is a new role in a different organisation or a reset of their leadership style. The aim is always the same clear direction, renewed confidence and sustainable momentum, not a quick fix.

Do you only work with clients in Perth, or can I join from other parts of Australia?
Grow Coaching is based in Perth, but almost all coaching is delivered online. At the moment, clients join from Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and regional areas.

Sessions are booked in Perth time, and we find times that work around your work and family commitments. As long as you have a quiet space and a stable internet connection, you can get the same depth of coaching from anywhere in Australia.

What qualifications and experience do you bring as a career coach?
I have spent more than fifteen years in senior leadership roles in a global law firm, leading cross-border teams and projects across Australia, Asia and Europe. I know what it is like to look successful on the outside and feel stuck on the inside, because I have been there myself.

I hold Level 1 and Level 2 Coach Master certifications, and my training is aligned with International Coaching Federation coaching standards. Grow Coaching is grounded in evidence-based methods, including the Grow Coaching Framework and positive psychology coaching, not just motivational talk.
