Meet Irene

"As a Results Coach, I specialise in guiding people through challenging life transitions. I love helping people transform from feelings of pain, uncertainty, and disappointment to a place of clarity, confidence, vitality, connection and purpose.


With over three decades of diverse experience in non-profits, governments, and businesses, I've held various roles such as CEO, board president, consultant, international speaker, mentor, trainer, counsellor and mediator. Additionally, as the founder of Neighbourhood Connect, I've spearheaded initiatives aimed at fostering connected communities and combating loneliness.

I've gained profound insights into the complexities of human experiences, having navigated parenthood, interstate moves, separation, loss, and embraced diverse cultures in my own life journey. I deeply understand the challenges when life doesn't align with our hopes and dreams.

If you're ready to embrace change and cultivate a more fulfilling, connected, and meaningful life, I'm here to provide unwavering support. Let's embark on a transformative journey towards realising the life you've only dared to dream of until now."
