Tim Burder

Starting his working life 20 odd years ago as an accountant, Tim has worked consistently in a corporate setting until recently. Currently living and working in Daylesford as a life coach, Tim is also a fully qualified massage therapist and operates a successful luxury holiday accommodation business with his wife Fiona. Tim also makes a living as an artist, designing and making fine furniture and producing photographs. Having made the change from the corporate world to a life of fun and passion and purpose, Tim is well aware of the steps involved in managing successful transitions. Tim is most passionate about having people live their dreams and enjoy a rich and fulfilling life.

“From my own journey of personal development, I know it is possible to have the life I want. I have this quote from Marianne Williamson pasted to my wall: 'Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.' Life coaching is a process that enables the movement beyond fear and into action.

Hayley Nicholls - Emerge Coaching - Live the life you love

Emerge Coaching is founded on the belief that we can all live the life we love. Hayley specialises in working with people to love their life through physical, emotional and spiritual well being. Taking a holistic approach to coaching she seeks to explore the interconnectedness of work, health, love and relationships with self and others, in leading a full and rewarding life.

“My passion for human potential has led me to a career in life coaching. Through my own journey of personal and professional development I have come to realise that we all have the potential to live an inspired life. Working with a personal coach was a turning to point in my life. Coaching opened my eyes to my real life purpose which is to help others to make profound discoveries about their own lives. I believe that people experience real and lasting happiness when they discover their life purpose and free themselves from real and perceived limitations. My experience has taught me that with support, kindness, encouragement and guidance, people can be empowered to achieve great things.”

David Russell

“Dream it, Dare it, Live it”

Drawing on his belief in personal integrity, congruence and treating each person as an individual, David is able to provide a safe and inspirational platform for people to not only work through their goals, but to actually achieve them. David embodies the transformation possible in coaching. After spending 22 years in the Police Force, he embarked on a period of intense personal development training, and is now a Director of Transformational Learning Australia. Combining his experience and beliefs with his compassion, humour and innate ability to find a positive in any situation, David is able to pave the way for profound transformation in people’s lives.

“Having spent 22 years in the Police Force, I was extremely set in my ways. After completing the Turning Point in 1998 I knew what direction my life was set to take, I just didn’t know how I was going to get there. Through the combination of personal development training and life coaching, I was able to bring my dreams to reality. Not only am I running my own successful business, but I am also doing what I am passionate about.”

What are you passionate about and how much do you want it?

Marg Ryan

Marg believes her purpose as a coach is to encourage, and inspire others to change, in order to fulfil their potential.  This passion has led her to further training as a Somatic Psychotherapist and she has completed an intensive three year program. Her training has facilitated her in being able to provide a safe non judgmental relationship in which to explore problems of living. Clients can benefit from reflecting on difficulties at work, in relationships, in parenting or in achieving personal goals. They can unravel old patterns of feeling and gain relief from repetitive painful states such as anxiety, confusion, negative feelings or low self esteem. Clients find that by putting words to experience, they develop a clarity and reflectiveness that can assist them to manage stress more effectively and improve decision making skills.

In terms of qualifications, Marg currently holds a Bachelor of Arts from Melbourne University, a Diploma of Education and a Masters in Business (Organization Behavior) from Swinburne University of Technology and most importantly a Diploma of Somatic Psychotherapy from the Australian College of Somatic Psychotherapy.
