"Faye's enthusiasm, laser insights, creativity and focus on outcomes ensured that I was able to distill my million-and-one "brilliant" ideas and passions into an array of executable projects. One project - Great Sydney Dog Walks - has just hit the bookshelves. All of this while maintaining an enjoyable corporate role.   Hire Faye - don't let your passions and ideas remain unfulfilled, wasting away on scribbled bits of paper in the "one day I'm gunna..." pile."

"Faye, thank you so much for your assistance, support and encouragement over the last year.  This book only happened because you made me see that it was No.1 on my list of things to do.  Without you it would still be a pile of notes and memories at the bottom of a drawer!"

Career coaching, time management, career advice


At a dead end street in my career, having no idea where to turn, and with my life stalling in many aspects, I was referred to Faye by a Director of a Financial Planning Firm in Sydney. Uncertain, I decided to enrol in a Career Coaching Course with her.


The skills, tools, strategies and learning that I undertook last year has changed the direction of my career and life in the most positive, successful and fulfilling way.  I learnt so much about myself, about why certain choices I was making were unhealthy for where I wanted to be, and how to implement positive changes. Most importantly Faye introduced me to the hundreds of possibilities that I would never have known about.


I now have a clear direction, have a killer CV, have goals that I have already met (to my surprise), and have an abundance of motivation from Faye’s energy, dedication and expertise in this field. She has an incredible network, and I have applied everything I learnt from my career coaching with her to other aspects of my life.  I cannot recommend her courses highly enough, and look back on this investment in myself as one of the best choices I have made.”

Faye has clear direction on her friendly approach to coaching and the benefits of what she taught me, are now really taking shape in my business today.

I would recommend Faye to anyone wishing to gain clarity in their business, clearly she gets results.”

I was stuck in the same job for a good few years and lost my passion for what was my initial chosen career. It was certainly not
heading in the right direction and I was desperate to progress one way or the other but could not find the motivation or direction.  Eventually, I became unhappy and in turn it started affecting other parts of my life, so I decided to consult Faye. I had my initial 30 mins free session which was very helpful as she immediately identified the issues I may wish to work on and gave me pointers to help decide whether to proceed with coaching. Once I started working with Faye, I noticed the difference in my mindset, confidence level, motivation and direction in life/career. She helped me identify my values and explored my career options and what I really wanted. After the coaching sessions, my goals were clear and I knew exactly what was important to me both in life and career. Faye has always been encouraging and supportive and gave me a lot of confidence in myself. She is very easy to talk to and to open up to. I don’t know how many thank-you’s I can say to her... all I can say is, I am really happy I had her as my coach and to have known her. I will not hesitate to turn to Faye again if and whenever I need a coach or even just to share some thoughts.”

Faye is a wonderful person and great professional providing high-level coaching services. I have learned a lot from her; her concrete professional advices, her support and generous sharing of her expertise are so helpful.  Even the example of her own professional career is a real inspiration; it is a true path of transformation: moving from an employee role to its own business creator, totally in line with its own values.

I am also a passionate reader of Faye’s newsletters and I find them truly stimulating. She always finds a natural mean to encourage asking yourself the right questions that are moving you out of the comfort zone and making you continue the work on your personal and professional development with a simple goal of trying to reach the highest possible level of satisfaction of your own life.

Faye Hollands guided and worked with me in formulating a first class presentation to prospective employers and reignite my confidence.


My name is Tim Dominguez and I am 56 years of age. I have achieved unprecedented success in sales, team management and business operations with 3 major International companies and 1 National  company. I was made redundant at the end of August 2011 and I thought that I would be with a major company in no time at all. WRONG!!!  Results, experience and enthusiasm  met nothing compared to my age.


Faye was recommended to me by a friend who was coached by Faye. After our first discussion Faye then set a plan into motion to present me to employers, agencies, web sites, Linkedin and networking. Faye shook of the cobwebs and made me think about what we had to do and me to believe in myself again - all of the for mentioned we 100% achieved.

 

The following is a brief summary of how Faye guides and helps you to achieve success:


  1. Presentation of your CV and Introduction letters - I received many favourable comments on the professional and informative presentation of myself and my CV

  2. Forget about poor me - remind yourself of how good you are

  3. Polish's a great diamond to be perfectly presented

  4. Makes you think about what has to be presented, how to go about it and how to win

  5. Encourages you and makes sure you are not in a slump but positively encourages you out of it when you think the world is against you

  6. Faye reinvented me and made me believe that I truly would be an asset to my employer

 

I am pleased to announce that after 8 weeks of unemployment, I commence employment with a National company as their State branch and operations manager.  I seriously don't believe I would have gained employment, at the mid to senior management level, without Fayes help.”

"I feel very fortunate to have met Faye. She is very awake, passionate, involved and enthusiastic. Very professional and with the right level of curiosity to bring out to the open just what is needed for you to move on.


Reliable and great to keep the tension for you to achieve your goals. She is also very inspiring, supportive and a great role model. She has definitely made an impact in my life by helping me to believe, explore different options and by putting into practice simple and creative tools to act. Congratulations on a great job!."

”I went to see Faye when my Personal Training business was idling along and not really reaching my targets nor growing in the manner i wanted it to. I could tell from my first phone call to Faye she cared about my mission to build a successful business.


Our work started with some self discovery which Faye guided me through in terms of client base and developing a brand. Our next challenge was to setup an affiliate program with other like minded businesses, which we now have successfully completed. Our last challenge was to setup a website and really start to market my services my website and newsletter etc.


Faye has helped guide me through every possible problem with amazing success building solutions and i really appreciate her positive and personable attitude. I would thoroughly recommend her services to anyone unhappy in their current position and wanting more from their Life and Career.”

“Working with Faye has been one of the best investments I've made in myself and my career. She has used her excellent skills in strategy, motivation and planning to bring clarity, insight and impetus to my career and personal development. I have learnt much from her - thoroughly enjoying the process - and now regard her as an invaluable sounding board as I plan and take further key steps in my career. I recommend her highly to anyone who is keen to make a step change towards even greater success in their professional or personal life.”


- Samantha Ryan, Change Manager, October 2011











“I have been working with Faye for over a year now. Suffice to say that it has been a year of significant change in both my working and personal life. Throughout, Faye has been a voice of inspiration and reason, which gave me the confidence to move forward positively. Faye has acted as a Sounding Board, a Coach and a Second Conscience ensuring that the decisions I have made have been well thought through. Faye has also spent a significant amount of time helping to develop Business Plans and build referral networks. I have always found Faye to be professional, insightful and incredibly generous with her time. For anyone requiring career guidance or coaching, I highly recommend Faye and Outshine Consulting.”

“I have known Faye for some time through her newsletters which are always very inspiring, full of fresh ideas and real life practical advice. I had the great pleasure to meet Faye in person, in a coaching session recently. She is very professional, energetic, passionate and very easy to talk to. The practical tips and techiques she gave me helped me to find the structure I needed in setting up my goals and priorities. As a result of Faye's coaching I feel inspired and more focused on achieving. Thank you Faye!”

“Faye is an energetic and dedicated professional that helped me find my way during my initial job search in Sydney.  I arrived in Australia about 6 months prior to meeting Faye. Until that time, I had been searching for a job for about four months with very limited results. Contrary to my experience looking for jobs in the US, I wasn’t able to get my foot in the door even for a simple meeting with a recruiter.  Faye helped me to understand the various ways in which I could approach my job search depending on who was my intended audience. She also helped me to polish my personal marketing materials such as CV and cover letter. As a result, I was able to successfully apply for jobs and be taken seriously.  I have noticed the guidelines provided by Faye together with my determination and persistence has paid off and as of today I have been able to build a reputation as an able consultant which has permitted me to generate a strong pipeline of work for 2010.” 

- Claudio Sissa - Operations Consultant, University of New South Wales, March  2010












"Faye has given me a different perspective on my professional and personal life. She has helped me define my core values, which have been crucial in making small and big decisions towards the goals I have created. Using tools from Faye's coaching, I have now relocated overseas and on track to fulfilling many more goals big and small. Her warmth, positivity and openness has made it an absolute delight to work with. She is truly passionate about what she does!"

“I thought the (coaching) sessions were really thought-provoking.  I was really glad to have some “me” time to think about what I want and what my values are.   I’m someone who likes to analyse over everything, so the depth we covered was really fascinating – learning new things about myself.  I found it easy to open up with you (Faye) because you’re so accepting and receptive to everything I said.  I feel like I have gained more skills in understanding myself and my priorities. I was able to gain more insight in becoming a better manager and I know I will apply this in practice.”

Many thanks Faye for my memorable and exciting life changing coaching sessions over a period of six weeks. Your coaching has proven to be an invaluable investment for me by showing me what possibilities lie with in me and the possibilities that are all around me. You have assisted me to break down barriers and not only have I become more assertive but also I feel strong and more in charge of my life. I truly believe what you said, "what you focus on is what you get".

“I have known Faye for some time now and have recently engaged her services in relation to my business and personal affairs. Her knowledge, delivery of service, implementation and continued ongoing service have provided me with a totally different outlook in regards to the business world I operate in and the personal space I enjoy.

In the time I have engaged Faye's services, I have clear vision and structure in my business and personal life and the results thus far speak for themselves. I am just sorry I did not come across her alot earlier in life. I would recommend anyone reading this to utilise Faye and not procrastinate like I did! I can guarantee you, you will benefit if your serious about a life change!”

"Before Faye's coaching I was aware of what the process entailed but had no idea what a significant impact it would have on me!  Change requires a level of self-examination which can sometimes be difficult.  Faye's positive energy, unwavering enthusiasm and support enabled me to move out of my comfort zone and end up in a new - and better - place! 

I'm not sure anyone can be prepared for just how powerful this experience can be - it's like having your own personal cheer leading squad!  If you're taking the time to read through these testimonials then you must be curious about coaching and I highly recommend you try a session with Faye.  It will be the start of a most awesome journey!"

"Faye has helped me step out into the world with confidence and most of all a plan, after being at home raising my family for 11 years. She has been supportive through the mental challenges and helped me to clarify my goals.  Thank you for your help in breaking down the 'elephant into bit sized chunks!' "

"Just wanted to thank you again Faye. I found our sessions so helpful and it is great to have a base to bounce back from. As I said the other day I like your pragmatic & to the point approach. You kept the sessions going in the right direction without it feeling too structured. I think the values have been "invaluable"- especially in interviews."

- Sue Spence - Business Development Manager, July 2008

"I was lucky to participate in a few sessions with Faye at my previous work - where she came to present lunchtime sessions on goal setting, direction and planning - general life principles. These things sometimes seem simple in theory but in practise we often forget. Faye is an excellent presenter and she is engaging which made all the sessions were helpful.   Personally - I loved listening to Faye's ideas on how to "get what you want in life". She gave me the tools and confidence to seek out the job I really wanted and now I find myself a happy camper every day.”

- Nicole Cole - HR Specialist, May 2010

"I am about to embark on my own small business venture and was feeling overwhelmed with all the information i was being given. Faye has the unbelievable ability to clear the path ahead. It's like she empties out your box of thoughts and puts them all back neatly and in order of importance.  

It's like a therapist for your business, she is objective and throws up questions you may have missed. Time management, goal setting,  Outshine does what it says on the  tin. If you want it, Faye can help you to get there.

I am thoroughly pleased with the results due to our sessions and now include our meetings on my monthly business budget."

"I was impressed with the amazing energy levels and lateral thought processes that Faye incorporates in her training and interactive sessions. Her experience in the recruitment sector in a client-facing capacity was definitely an asset in her ability to communicate key learnings to others in the sector.

Faye is to be commended for her ability to draw participants into a journey during their time with her, rather than just attending a course. I commend her on her ability to be creative and help others to think ‘bigger picture’."

- Sharmini Thomas - Regional Manager, Michael Page International,  November 2007











"Coaching has always sounded a bit airy to me but as I see it now you have many areas within your life that you may be putting on hold or struggling with that a bit of help, clarity and motivation will go along way. I have been putting off a dream of mine for a long time and with coaching I can see that by taking small steps and setting reachable timely goals I can get there!  I felt very comfortable speaking with Faye in a relaxed, friendly and fun atmosphere. Simple tasks were given to me to make - what I thought to be HUGE decisions - more manageable and Fun.  Life is meant to be fun and I came out of the session extremely motivated and happy.  I will be recommending Faye to anyone who needs a bit of a push to get out of the daily grind.”

"I certainly wasn't in the right frame of mind prior to the session but I left feeling very thankful for attending and with a wealth of information that will serve me well as I move onto the next stage of my career. It certainly opened my mind to the areas I need to focus on in relation to managing a team and recognising and adapting my style of communication.  I particularly liked your (Faye's) style of coaching and it was beneficial to me that you had experience in the Financial Services industry."

“After struggling for some months now with what I perceived to be a lack of motivation and disillusionment with my current role, Faye managed to take me through my own thought processes and uncover what the real issues are. We worked through a number of exercises throughout which I had several real moments of clarity, and Faye's summary of each of the points we uncovered made things so crystal clear.  The best thing about the coaching was that Faye really got me thinking about what I could do to change things, and I came up with my own solutions without it seeming like hard work. I now have some real actions that I can take to lift my own motivation levels and increase my career satisfaction within the next few days. It really feels like I have a clear path ahead now. A big thank you and high recommendation to Faye."

- Sophie Mellor - Senior HR Adviser, September 2007




"I have recently had the opportunity of being coached by Faye Hollands. This has been the most life changing experience I have ever encountered.  Faye challenged me to discover limiting beliefs I had been hanging on to for many years and that had been holding me back in so many aspects of both my professional and personal life.  I had allowed these beliefs to take control and accept for myself less than what I deserved. My new beliefs now support me and not only do I notice the changes within myself, other people are also noticing the changes. My goals are now being realised and I will continue to raise the bar as my confidence and self-esteem continue to soar.  I would highly recommend Faye Hollands as a Coach. Faye is compassionate, professional, and totally inspirational, seeing the magnificence in everybody. Faye I would like to thank you as you have totally and unselfishly become the facilitator to move me to continually grow and experience all that life has to offer."

- Julie Sanders - Business Owner, July 2006




"I found my session with Faye/Outshine very helpful.  Faye was non-judgmental and listened well. She made me question why I do and say things. This helped me to gain a better understanding of what drives certain actions. She was welcoming and accommodating and the whole experience left me tired and with a lot to think about – all in a very good way!  I will be recommending life coaching with Outshine to my friends and colleagues"

“Faye has given me the motivation to reach my goal.  She has gone to the trouble to follow up and is very understanding and supportive.  I am very happy to recommend Faye to anyone who needs inspiration to reach their goals."

- Patricia Blair, October 2007




"Initially it was unfamiliar territory but Faye made me feel really comfortable in every session. She was professional and focused and genuinely interested in guiding and encouraging me to look at situations in a different light. It has helped me both at work and socially – just understanding where these issues stem from has improved my confidence in everything I do."

- Shin-Yi Ong - Recruitment Consultant, November 2006




"I found Faye to be very professional and she explained what to expect in detail.  Faye has coached me on many area's of my life including my career and relationships.  Her coaching has opened my eyes to new ways of thinking and how to go forward in my life. Work has certainly improved – I am more focused on what I am doing and how to achieve more as a result of Faye's coaching.  I would certainly recommend Faye to any of my friends or family for life coaching."

- Beverley Shirley - Business Owner, November 2006




"I really felt our hour session was very valuable.  At first I was very reluctant and skeptical… but the session turned out to be really useful to me, in terms of the breakdown of goals and achievements!  I felt it was an hour well spent with useful tools to use in life."

- Taryn Leong - Recruitment Consultant, January 2008



I just had to write to you. I heard your webinar about success and one of your questions about how you know you achieved your goal truly gave me an insight about how I perceive success and how I set myself up for failure until now. This question literally freed me from my fear of failure. Since then, I have then sent this to all my friends and warmly recommended that they’d listen to it as well.  I just wanted to say thank you and give you a warm virtual hug”
