Empowering Community Service Leaders
The community services sector is distinguished by its dedicated professionals who tirelessly give their all. Despite facing constant shifts in funding models and regulatory landscapes, along with rapid organisational growth, this sector continues to show remarkable resilience. However, these changes can lead to burnout, change fatigue, and the premature promotion of skilled workers into leadership roles for which they may not be fully prepared. Moreover, significant workforce shortages underscore the urgent need for strong, effective leadership, and a culture that people want to be a part of.
Recognising these challenges, I am deeply committed to nurturing passionate leaders who are equipped to build and sustain high performing teams. My services are designed to support these leaders through targeted coaching and development programs to build confidence and leadership effectiveness. By investing in your leaders continuously and strategically, you create productive and sustainable workplaces where people are inspired to stay and thrive.
This proactive approach not only mitigates the risks of burnout and change fatigue but also transforms your organisation to have a greater impact in the communities it serves.
Having had over 13 years leading teams in the disability sector supporting teams to be successful, especially during significant change including the transition to the NDIS. Donna understands the challenges of working in systems that are constantly evolving and how to get teams to drive change, remain engaged, and stay well even in imperfect conditions.
Donna also provides coaching, workshops and leadership circles to the aged care system as they face constant reforms and ongoing staffing shortages. Providing tools and strategies to work smarter not harder, manage stress, and make informed aligned decisions to support the businesses outcomes.

I worked with Donna when I was starting my own business. It was such a positive experience that was completely transformational. Together we were able to work through my limiting beliefs and refocus my mindset for my business. By the end of my program, I had a new-found confidence. I gained clarity and was clear on my goals. Mental blocks had gone, my business values were affirmed and my overall mindset was really positive. Donna is a brilliant coach and wonderful person to work with. I gained my first 5 clients during this program!

Donna recently ran an amazing leadership program. She was insightful, engaging, combining practical leadership skills with the knowledge of mindset -the key to working smarter not harder to get results. The individual coaching provided post program was instrumental to overcoming individual mindset challenges and embedding permanent change.

Every time I have a session with Donna I leave feeling refreshed, focussed and calm. In my initial sessions she helped me achieve a 7kg weight loss over 5 sessions. Changing my thoughts about myself and food was so powerful.
Donna worked with me a second time to help me stop avoiding studying. I hadn’t studied since school and the self-doubt and fear of failing kept me stuck. After one session I was motivated and no longer had a nervous tummy when I sat down to study. I just handed up my first assignment!

I highly recommend working with Donna and her Rapid Results Program in 5 amazing weeks I have gained confidence in moving forward in a new career change at the age of 50 that had been my identity for 30 years. That light that I couldn’t identify with at the beginning of our program has now been switched on!
I gained new mindset skills , a new found clarity , confidence and motivation that was being hindered and challenged by my old thought processes and limiting belief patterns
Donnas program was a fun , relaxed empowering approach whereby I found my inner confidence , to believe in myself , my strengths , to identify my values and goals and what motivates me and how to channel this into all aspects of my life , not just professionally but personally as well .This new found business mindset has flowed into my personal goals and relationships as well as my health and wellbeing . Goals are being met, I am growing, I am confident , I am more productive in life and business .
Thank you Donna !!
