COVID-19 and BORDER CROSSING UPDATES
So… the border bubble is still here.
If you are fully vaccinated you can travel between Queensland and the non-restricted NSW border zone (as designated by Queensland Health) without being tested as long as you have not been outside the non-restricted border zone into a hotspot.
You still need an entry pass to QLD even if you’re a resident of QLD. This is the one for border zone residents https://www.qld.gov.au/border-pass/border-zone-resident
Don’t forget I am still doing sessions by zoom or phone or Skype. A lot of people prefer them so if you’ve never tried it might be worth a shot if you don’t want to come to Kingscliff.
For those of you who know me from Miami Business Centre, sorry but I have permanently taken rooms in Kingscliff. I was not granted an exemption when the QLD border closed and I had to sign a lease here. On the positive side Kingscliff is lovely, no-one has complained about the drive and I have a lot of people saying how much nicer it is to come here than Miami.
The new address is 4/92 Marine Pde Kingscliff.
“Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.”
Aristotle
No matter what you’re going through, you don’t have to deal with this alone.
Imagine being heard and understood. Imagine feeling accepted no matter what you share. Imagine feeling differently about yourself, seeing yourself in a new and more positive way. Imagine feeling confident, happy and secure. Imagine knowing you can deal with whatever comes your way.

Heal. Grow. Transform.
Heal – there’s no denying our past has power over us.
What happened in our past can influence anything from:
- Our level of confidence – feeling like we’re not good enough, that we have to be perfect to be ok etc
- The type of partner we choose and the patterns we keep repeating in relationships
- Our level of anxiety or how readily we become depressed
- Our outlook on life and how readily we can adapt to things
- Our relationship with ourselves – anything from our body image and relationship to food to how forgiving and self-nurturing we can be
- Our relationship with the world – whether we feel safe, whether we can be vulnerable, whether we can trust
It’s important to understand where these things started. We need to see that we did the best we could in managing them. We also need to see that we have the choice to do things differently. In the Heal stage, EMDR (a specialist therapy that can help us change negative beliefs more quickly than talk therapy) can be incredibly helpful.
Grow – there are so many skills we can learn to make our lives better.
Skills in:
- Managing our emotions – emotional intelligence; techniques to overcome anxiety or depression;
- Managing our mind – positive psychology skills to keep us happier and more positive; skills to help us focus
- Managing our relationships – breaking negative cycles; changing our reactions (or over-reactions); getting our needs met.
- Managing our communication – conflict management; negotiation skills, assertiveness
- Managing pesky little things like procrastination, time management and self-sabotage
Whether it’s because you missed out on learning the skills you need (you’ll discover if this happened in Heal) or because you want to improve any aspect of your life, everyone can benefit from learning new skills.
Transform – you’ve healed the past (if you needed to); you’ve either learnt or already have the skills to live your best life. Now it’s time to transform – to build the future you always wanted.
Transform is a coaching space. This is where we look forward and where we deal with transitions (job, identity etc). We decide what steps to take to get you where you want to be. And we use all the success/motivational/positive tools we can to make sure you get there.
We can even use EMDR to build positive templates for your future or to build inner resources such as courage, an inner cheer squad, or a whole-hearted, passionate you.
