Coaching & Consulting

Our coaching and consulting services are for the purpose-driven leader or team that wants to create a unique impact.

If you’re someone that wants to make their mark on the world and create true impact, then our coaching and consulting services are for you.

Our coaching and consulting approach centres around our key philosophy and principle of helping you, ‘find your own way.’ Over years over trial and error, we have found simple yet powerful ways to help you get clarity on who you are as a person and by extension as a business (if applicable), so you can bring your unique gifts into the world like no one else can.

On each engagement, you’ll work closely with the founder, Matt Defina, who is a former PwC change management consultant, trained Organisational Psychologist and a transformational facilitator with experience working with over 25,000 people across the world.

Our Coaching &

Consulting Process

Our coaching and consulting approach follows a simple yet powerful process that is informed by numerous Psychology, change management and and coaching frameworks.

Intention

We’ll start by getting clarity on your intention for working together by asking 3 key questions, informed by the Another Way ‘ABC change framework’.

1) Where are you currently AT? 2) Where do you want BE? 3) What needs to CHANGE?

Once we have clarity on the answers to these 3 questions, we’ll identify an action plan for what you need to and what somatic tools you’ll need to embody to support this change.

Integration

Finally, it’s time to integrate and stabilise the transformation you’ve gone on. If we’ve done our work together, it’s highly likely that by the end of our work together, you will have changed as a person and your life and business will have changed as well.

When we transform ourselves, we transform our lives. But, we have to integrate this ‘new normal’ to ensure that the change sticks. Then, we start the process again.

Transformation

Once we have clarity on your current context, we’ll move to change and transformation. This is where I’ll support you to make actual changes and choices in your life, career and business. Think of this as the ‘implementation’ phase.

Our work together will not simply stay on the Zoom call - you will need to be prepared to make actual changes in how you’re choosing to show up in your life and in your business and to implement the tools and changes.

Transform your self. Transform your life. Transform the world.

Matty guided me through the most beautiful unravelling of my inner parts… with so much humanity, truth and the massively understated power of simplicity.

I have journeyed with the parts for many years and wanted to take a moment to acknowledge not only the power of this work but also the power of receiving a facilitator who is so in their integrity with it.

Thank you so much beautiful human for holding me in the remembrance of my fragile human existence. I believe wholly in sharing facilitators and teachers, whom are strongly in their truth when it comes to the medicine they are serving.

In a world where you can be sold the path to evolution in a 40-hour online course, it is imperative to recognise those who have truly walked the path of a wayshower or a serviceman.

I see you Matthew. Thank you for your devotion to self in such ways.

FAQs

  • My coaching approach and the tools that I share with you are informed by my training as a Psychologist, my work as a change management consultant and my work as a leadership coach and facilitator.

    You will be learning tools that are drawn from the Another Way, 'Somatic Leadership Academy', also known as EXPAND.

    1:1 mentorship and coaching is our most intimate offering, so you will be learning directly from Matt and working with him to learn the tools that are most appropriate to your circumstances.

    The EXPAND Academy and the tools you'll be learning, include but are not limited to the following modalities:

    • Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) (aka Parts Work)

    • Somatic Experiencing

    • Acceptance & Commitment Therapy

    • Motivational Interviewing

    • Breathwork (multiple styles)

    • Narrative Coaching

    • Rites of Passage

  • If you can't make a coaching session we'll do everything we can to re-schedule it within a reasonable time. At least 12 hours notice is required in the mentorship program, while at least 48 hours notice is required for 1-off coaching calls.

  • Yes, you absolutely will. The intention with meeting weekly is to keep momentum going and to keep you accountable. We have found Zoom calls to be highly effective. That being said, we will endeavour to arrange occasional face-to-face coaching adventures. Want to go on a hike? Do an ice bath and sauna? Try something new? Let's make it happen.
