Insightful, warm and relatable presentation

Just wanted to say thanks for your insightful, warm and relatable presentation yesterday morning at the ICF. I loved it!

From the conceptual to the very practical application

The work on ‘values’ was excellent and took me from the conceptual to the very practical application in my life! Thanks Josie.

This will be helpful talking and educating team members

Understanding the I want… and I don’t want… and acceptance does not mean you have to ‘like it’ will be helpful talking, educating team members reluctant to change. Using the SCARF model will be helpful too when communicating to the team when tracking jobs or just general discussions.

You had the team very engaged, entertained and inspired

Firstly a big thank you Josie for facilitating a very interesting knowledge sharing workshop to our team.

I would think for many of our team this would be the first workshop they have witness where the content was key to each person individually.

You had the team very engaged, entertained and inspired.

What resonated most is the detailed description of the brain and how the different sections of the brain work simultaneously to provoke thoughts and actions.

I am sure you inspired many that you are what you think you are and that everyone has the skills to make change in their life.

ByTheRules Conference Success!

I would like to pass on, how much bytherules enjoyed your wealth of knowledge and expertise at our conference on Saturday. It was great to see everyone so engaged and keen and the areas you talked about being brought up in conversations throughout the rest of the day (and will be for weeks to come)! Very inspiring and lots certainly taken away from the day.

If anyone deserves to be called a Master Coach it is Josie Thomson

I have known Josie for some six years and have had nothing but positive experiences with her. She coached me the first time we met and I was very impressed by her insight, her skill and her persistence. She has won several awards for her coaching. She has the very unusual ability to be able to complete a large number of coaching sessions in a day without tiring or fading. On the personal side she is a very good mother of two great children and her people skills are outstanding. She is also extremely bright, quick on the uptake and worldly wise, and I have no doubt that she will be an asset to the program.

Since all the things I want to say about Josie are superlatives, I thought I should add some weakness to show that my view is balanced. The truth is that I can find nothing about her to criticize. If anyone deserves to be called a Master Coach it is Josie Thomson, except she is very feminine. I have known her for many years and she has coached me on a number of occasions very successfully, and I am no push over. She is challenging, tough and persistent in the most gentle and caring way. I have grown much from working with her. Furthermore she really enjoys coaching people and devotes an inordinate amount of her time doing so without getting bored or stale. When coaches really genuinely enjoy coaching, they give of their very best and Josie does just that. I would trust her with my vulnerabilities any day.

One of the most genuine and insightful leaders

Well done Josie! One of the most genuine and insightful leaders in your field. Without peer as far as I am concerned!

Amazing woman and speaker

Josie has a very practical and easy approach to self development subjects and neurosciences. She is an amazing woman and speaker and I am convinced that anyone would benefit from her smart tips and great workshop.

Saw that the power was in me to change things

You challenged my negativity Josie. Saw that the power was in me to change things! Thank you!

Lots of practical and applicable lessons

Josie is fun, inspirational, knowledgeable and free and open with her advice, guidance and tips to help me live my best life. Josie makes a few hours flash by in an instant and I am taking away with me today lots of practical and applicable lessons to help me get what I really want in my life.

Highly relevant and inspirational session

During these unprecedented times, resilience and mindfulness is something we all need in spades to deal the added stress and anxiety of the current circumstances. The key principles of emotional resilience and fundamental wellness strategies shared by Josie at the workshop was instrumental in to being able to regulate emotional response, gain clarity and cope successfully in challenging times of change. Thank you Josie for a highly relevant and inspirational session!

Josie has so much passion and experience

A brilliant and insightful presentation at the injury prevention conference in Brisbane,Josie has so much passion and experience it was really good to listen to get get so much information from a session.

Great work Josie.

Josie’s energy and enthusiasm is infectious

Josie’s energy and enthusiasm is infectious. Josie shares freely her knowledge, experience and I have come away from the workshop with tools, techniques, ah ha moments and a confidence and desire to live my life to the full and my way!

THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER ATTENDED

Josie there is a reason I chose rating ‘1’ on the feedback form. Because my
expectations were negative, and based on a fixed mindset. This presentation was THE
BEST THING I HAVE EVER ATTENDED.

Wowsers - what an amazing story and person

I got to see Josie present at the North Queensland Injury Prevention and Return to Work conference in Townsville recently and wowsers what an amazing story and person! It was the way she told her story that got to me (lots of others too from work) something in her simplicity, authenticity, conviction, I cant quite articulate the right words. I just read an article and the easy and understandable way in which she speaks is reflected in how she writes. Normally for me, self help or how to, are a big yawn fest. I'm sold! Will be getting your book!

The best investment in life

Time with Josie is the best investment in life. I always learn something (many things) new and come away feeling positive and armed with a strategy for life.

I want to share this with everyone!

A wonderful workshop – so many Ah ha! moments that energised me and reminders from our coaching. I want to share this with everyone! Especially my husband. Your presentation style is so easy to engage with – I’m very grateful to have you in my life. Thank you.

A lot of things resonated to me

Such enthusiasm and energy! Loved Josie! A lot of things resonated to me on my first workshop with Josie. Loved the way Josie make things visual which makes things easier to understand.

Touched the minds and hearts

My heartfelt thanks go to you for your wonderful contribution to Happiness & Its Causes 2018. The conference was another great success with 1,500 people attending. Your presentation was a great addition to the program and was well received by our delegates. Thank you so much for all the effort you put into an event that touched the minds and hearts of so many people and provided insights and tools they could take back into their lives.

Josie is an incredibly engaging presenter

We were lucky enough to have Josie speak at CPA Congress in Canberra this year. Josie is an incredibly engaging presenter & gave a great practical insights into how our brains operate. Josie's lived experience & deep insights into resilience & growth make for a presentation that's inspirational & educational in equal measures. Thanks Josie.
