Real science. Plain language. Tools you can use in real life.
You do not need to have everything figured out before you begin.
That is where we begin.

There is no universal solution for personal growth. Your experiences, values, responsibilities, relationships and goals are unique.
That is why Focus Open Mind coaching is personalised to the person in front of us.
Your experience may include:
The purpose is not to tell you how to live your life.
It is to help you understand yourself, recognise your possibilities and make informed decisions about the future you want to create.
A future where people have the knowledge, confidence and support to make healthier choices for themselves, their families and their communities.
Through coaching, education and practical support, Focus Open Mind helps people better understand themselves and take meaningful steps towards healthier lives.
Jeanette (SHED) has a journey that has included health and physical education, farming, business ownership, coaching and becoming a Licensed Brain Health Trainer.
She understands that change doesn't happen in perfect conditions. It happens while running businesses, raising families, working the land and supporting everyone around you.
That's why her approach makes brain health practical for everyday life.
Focus Open Mind supports rural individuals, families, organisations and communities through:
Where you live should not prevent you from accessing meaningful support.

Move through a period of change
Strengthen your confidence

Take greater responsibility for your choices
Support your family more effectively
Learn practical wellbeing strategies

You do not need to feel completely ready. You only need to be open to exploring what your next step could look like.
The greatest measure of this work is the difference it creates in the lives of the people who experience it.

In their own words
I am a client of Jeanette's coaching program and have been undertaking the Brain Master's Journey for over 3 months now. Jeanette's program has been very beneficial to me in terms of better understanding myself and grasping the key elements to live a fulfilling life. The program has aided in my self development and overall growth individually and spiritually.
I have learnt and am continuously learning various tools and coping mechanisms to manage and improve my overall anxiety. Jeanette's motivation and enthusiasm is one of the driving forces to make a positive change in my life. Jeanette is understanding, patient and caring and always puts her clients' needs first.
They say "knowledge is power", and I feel I have definitely come a long way with being educated about brain health. Jeanette's depth of knowledge is exceptional and her dedication to educate and empower others on the importance of living a fulfilling life is remarkable.
Jeanette's energy and passion is evident in the way she delivers various content across and there is not one session that goes by where we don't share a laugh or have fun together. Each class I am challenged to think outside the square and get out of my comfort zone.
Each one-on-one weekly session is unique and focuses on different aspects towards improving one's overall brain health journey. Whether that be undertaking intriguing quizzes or unpacking personality traits. Each session is thoughtfully considered and planned where workbooks are provided to go through during the lesson.
I would highly recommend Jeanette to anyone who is willing to make a positive change in their overall health and heal areas that require work.
I am one of Jeanette's first clients for her new "The Brain Masters Journey 6 month program". I commenced the Brain Masters Journey Program in April 2024 and have since benefited greatly from it. Jeanette has enabled me to have discovered things about myself that I never knew prior to starting the program.
The program with Jeanette was a transformative experience that opened my eyes up to a whole new world of health and fostering positivity in one's life.
Jeanette was clear and interesting and I thoroughly enjoyed her style of teaching. The program is carefully planned out over six months to cover a variety of topics ranging from the importance of sleep to exercise and nutrition. The material and content we covered was up to date and highly relevant to today's day and age. I also liked how interactive and personal the course was. I felt there was a good focus on the importance of brain health and techniques to combat negative thought processes and anxiety. Jeanette's guidance and support throughout the program is what got me through to the end.
The course content was excellent with a good balance between theory and practical application, which I thought was a great way to learn. This course has given me a more cemented view in my overall health and wellbeing and assisted me to apply various tools to deal with anxiety.
If you would like to transform your overall health and wellbeing, I would highly recommend Jeanette's program. It is well worth the money and time invested and you will look back with certain accomplishments no doubt.
Jeanette was a presenter at THE Rural Woman's International Women's Day online event and shared on the topic, Three Steps to Succeed in Uncomfortable Conversations. Jeanette was a dedicated host, she provided an excellent 30 minute presentation that offered great insight and usable tools for the participants.
She was honest, vulnerable and direct in her content and her slide deck was also really helpful. I can recommend Jeanette as someone who walks her talk and will only teach what she has practiced! May you bloom where you are.
Jeanette is an amazing coach not only because she is calm and patient but also very knowledgeable. She is very down to earth and an understanding individual. She has opened my eyes to diet, exercise and meditation in my life and has taught me tools to carry on.
She provided comfort, support, insight, someone to talk to and someone to confide in. But most importantly she brought hope to help me in recovery with a very holistic approach.
