MASTERPIECE
6 MONTH 1:1 MENTORING JOURNEY
TO MAKE YOUR ONE PRECIOUS HUMAN LIFE
A GLORIOUS WORK OF ART
This program is not for the ordinary zombies, who are happy to fall in cue like antibiotic-laden, drugged-up cows, waiting in line for their cattle branding.
This program is not for those who want to routinely head to the bowlo on Wednesday night for a game of bingo.
Don’t even keep reading if you believe that there’s no way out of your depression, anxiety or woes.
I love you, but this isn’t for you.
This program is for you, the one who wants more from life, who wants to suck the marrow out of life, who wants to explore the depths of who you can be and how you can serve.
It isn’t only for people who have ALREADY done extraordinary things, but also for those who WANT to.
This coaching adventure is for the brave, like you, who want strive, and accomplish, AND be happy whilst doing it.
Those who want to turn both their inner life AND outer world into a masterpiece.
“I actually can’t believe it. I am gob-smacked by this turn around. I can’t thank you enough. My feet feel planted on the ground, I feel stable, and so excited to move forward. I just can’t thank you enough.” - Tasha Knight, UK.
Balance is hard!
Really hard.
When work is thriving we miss valuable time with the kids.
When finances are pouring in we neglect our health.
When we over focus on our fitness we forget we have to actually make money.
When we’re too fun and pleasure focused we neglect our spirituality and mental health.
MASTERPIECE IS ABOUT BEING FULLY ALIVE - IN ALL AREAS OF LIFE - TO THE DETRIMENT OF NONE.
It’s about your essence - who you are being - and the outcome.
You get it?
Let me explain.
The other night Hannah (sexy wifey) was putting Nalu (5 year old legend of a son) to bed and I heard her whisper into his ear, “you are God’s masterpiece.”
I thought, imagine drinking those words in from your parents! What a powerful sentiment. And it was that moment that I decided that had to be the name of this program.
You are a masterpiece, and you’re designed to create masterpieces, and the greatest work of art you will ever create is your life.
So, there’s 2 parts to our mission:
Who YOU ARE BEING - do you know the power, beauty, worth, capability, uniqueness of who you are?
This is about mastering your inner world.What YOU ARE DOING - Are you using that inner potential to create an integral, life-giving, balanced, challenging, peaceful, delightful life?
This is about mastering your outer world.
So now you might be wondering, what could your life look like with 6 months of deep support?
6 months!
I’ve seen lives change (many times) in a one hour conversation.
What could happen in 6 months?
If you’re not sure, I tell ya…
You know that big thing that happened in the past that you still think about?
Gone.
Alchemised.
It held you back, now it grows you forward and up.
Just like cow poo.
Wait, Michael, what the fuck are you talking about?
Well, no one really likes cow poo, and when you’re walking through a paddock you avoid it.
But when I was growing herbs in my backyard, I would walk out to the neighbouring paddock, shovel in hand, and collect the very poo others were avoiding and mix it in to the soil.
The herbs loved it and grew brighter, greener and fuller by the day.
So let’s be clear.
Your past is the poo, the herbs are your future. Gardening is the present.
The very thing that has held you back - whatever it is - will become what grows you.
You know that feeling in your heart, that you can’t put words to?
That dream that feels a little too big for you.
You distract yourself and stay busy.
But when it’s silent. There it is. haunting. Calling - what if there’s more…
That flicker of a flame is about to become a friggen bush fire.
You CAN do it.
Actually, you must.
Because the health of your soul and the happiness of your mind depends on it.
You know how you’ve always had a special gift, even though it’s hard to clarify what it is.
It’s time you unwrap that gift so it can spring to life like a freakin jack-in-the-box.
You can’t become the leader you were born to be without your unique weirdness. Your freakiness is your genius. You weren’t born to fit in. So through fitting out a new life will begin!
You will be more productive and less burnt out. You’ll realise that peace isn’t an obstacle to success, it’s the foundation of effective action.
You’ll be keenly aware of your own mind and KNOW how to manage your thoughts, attention and creativity for maximum mental health and wellbeing.
You’re going to STIRVE, HAPPY.
People around you will say - what’s your secret? You seem to always have it all together.
You’ll have within you a spirit of adventure, ready to explore the outer reaches of your capacity moving into uncharted territory within. Inner mastery = real outer success.
“I Just wanted to reach out with a big fat thank you for EVERYTHING that you've done for me. Frankly I don't feel like thank you really cuts it to pay homage to the monumental impact our work, and your support, has had on my life and spiritual journey. - Ange, Byron Bay.
I don’t care much for speedy living, new fads and trendy life hacks. I care about the truth of your emotions, your raw and unbridled nature, the state of your mind and the brilliance of your soul. I care about you setting fire to your old life and watching the green branches of your new life shoot freely out from the ashes
Righto, so I’m guessing that now you want to know about who I am and how I came to be a world renowned mentor who’s worked with hundreds or people from 20 different countries?
HOW IT ALL STARTED…
For me, it felt like I didn’t really have a choice about being a mentor or a coach, it was kind of what just naturally fell into place, as if doing this work is how I can be of best use here on earth.
It started back when I was 24, traveling around Australia, surfing and living out of my 4WD truck and I noticed, time and time again, people would come and sit around my campfire and open up about things they were struggling with, things they had never told anyone and things their hearts longed for.
To be honest, at that stage, I had never heard of a mentor or a life coach. It just felt like I had a spacious life - so there was enough room and energy to really listen - and I had started practicing meditation seriously, and exploring what spirituality and God meant to me, so I felt like I could be there, with presence and acceptance for them, exactly as they were. Then I started to receive letters in the mail (showing the fact that I am now 42 right there) and texts on my old brick phone, saying things like “you changed my whole life that night”.
I was surprised. I didn’t mean to, or try to, it just happened. Also, at this stage, I knew I didn’t want to go back to being a chef, so I started to wonder, could it be possible to do this as an occupation?
Then fast forward through many years of being coached myself, putting myself through the fires of transformation, lots of study, some incredible mentors, learning the psychological process behind real and lasting change, and the rest is history.
And here we are!
Now I have been officially coaching people for over 12 years. I’ve worked with people in around 20 countries, led coaching training programs around the world and I’ve become the mentor people reach out to when their ready for change, ready to step into the life that’s been calling them, and they haven’t had the results they hoped for through various online courses or seeing the local psyche.
Through powerful, committed, mentoring we can ride off into the sunset, free of the common obstacles that we all face, kinda like these ones….
Daddy issues are going to be obliterated (just ask Bryre - “Just tell them how well you heal dady issues haha, and you’ll be booked out for the rest of your life”)
Mum guilt is going to get the flick (just ask Janelle - “I’d been living with this [guilt] my whole life, but now after letting it go I have a new-found relationship with mum where I can just be myself.”)
Anxiety can get F*ck$d (ask Hannah - “my baseline used to be anxiety and worst-cased scenario, now my baseline feeling tone is gratitude and contentment”)
Goals are going to get crushed (just ask Luke from Sydney - “My body has never been healthier, my mind has never been clearer and more mindful. I feel stronger connections to my friends and family, and have a sense of gratitude for so much in my life. I just want to thank you again for facilitating this change, giving me the tools to change, expanding my horizons and letting me develop into a constantly improving version of myself.”)
One conversation might just change your life (just ask Emily - “Having someone who I know and trust to call me on my bullshit and support me in the transition is something I don’t take lightly. I am very aware of how fortunate I am to have him all to myself twice a month. He always keeps things simple and digestible (that’s why I love him) yet I’ve had some of the biggest breakthroughs of my life and that’s why I keep coming back.)
But riding off into the sunset isn’t really enough.
You want more than contentment don’t you?
Don’t get me wrong, contentment is life giving and restorative but alone, it’s stagnant.
You can have contentment AND a full life. Contentment AND ambition. Contentment AND striving.
The balance of opposites = LIVING
With just contentment you’ll die wondering.
With just striving, ambition and desire you die……. well you’ll just die!
You want to move into each new day with real purpose.
You want to know why you’re here and what to do about it.
You want to know how you can move forward in a whole new way, rooted in service, heart lit up, and not get burnt out along the way.
I’d love to have a yarn.
I want to block out my schedule and put aside an hour just for you so I can serve you.
I would never be so simple minded as to think that you would want to commit to an epic journey without first getting to know each other.
This isn’t rural India and this isn’t an arranged marriage.
Let’s not put a ring on it after just meeting here.
Let’s chat and then maybe I’ll drop a knee.
Haha, this analogy is getting a bit creepy.
But really, I just want to serve you and send you off into the world feeling both content and excited because that’s what I live for.
I want to help you create a strategy for supreme balance - for free!
Why?
For 2 reasons.
If you knew how generous people have been to me along my journey you’d understand. I thrive on giving back and any opportunity to serve. (There’s no obligation, no on the spot commitment, nothing. Just a real, honest and very helpful conversation!)
If you happen to be interested in further work together I can fill you in with all of the details about mentoring, everything you need to know, like: how it works, why I call it mentoring not coaching, what tools we will draw upon, how long a session goes for, how much it costs etc. All of this is variable depending on your life phase, age, family status and more.
I don’t want you to fit into my mentoring box, I want to design the program to fit in with you.
This is why until I get to know you a little bit I cant give an exact picture of what our work together will look like.
But wholly molley I’m keen as a bean to figure it out together.
GUARANTEE:
By the way, if you think I talk a big game, that’s because I do. I’m so confident in this process that if we work together, and you’re not seeing REAL results in your life, you can have your money back and we can shake hands and part ways happily.

Even though we can do all of the above, most people who join Masterpiece are in a transitional phase of life. They are exhausted or disenchanted with their old way of life. Yet, they’re not yet established in a new way of life - or they might not even know what a new life looks like! They just FEEL it’s time for change and they know that some support in bridging the gaps between the old life and the new.
MASTERPIECE is about being really deliberate is the process of creating the brushstrokes of your life, after all, we’re talking about your one precious human life! Let’s make it an extraordinary work of art.
